Oliver did the honors in honor of me and my pregnant belly. This is his interpretation. Not too bad, eh? I think my neck is pretty accurate, very long, like a giraffe.
So ladies and gents, my days of being pregnant are waning and I couldn't be more grateful. Even though it truly is miraculous to walk around with another living creature inside of me! I do marvel at the rumblings, contortions, kicks and now contractions. However, I will not miss the heart-burn, fat packs, or anything else that appeared that wasn't there before. I won't go into any detail to avoid upsetting anyone's stomach or mind. However, I realize there has to be some sort of exchange right? I'm not just granted a baby with no effort on my part. If it were easy, I wouldn't love the end result as much. It's just the beginning of all the sacrifices to come. So now at four weeks to go, I grow anxious to meet this little girl of ours.
People say "Wow it has gone by so fast!" I don't agree. I have been very aware of my condition and everyday feel the child inside. Ok..... there has been a rare moment where I have forgotten for a few minutes and I look down shocked and think, "What the hell? When did I get pregnant?" But like I said, a very rare moment.
The count down begins and hope that she will not come till the end of the course because every weekend is planned until the due date. Until then, life is very busy. But then again, when isn't it?
