I'm getting BIG!!!

So, last night Joey and I finally tried to catch up on our pictures. The last picture we took was at 20 weeks, and I'm not 29 weeks! Opps! I think I was a little nervous to take pictures after many interesting comments over the weekend. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE family....but, when you don't see them that often and some of the first comments are "YOU ARE SOOOO BIG!" "YOU'VE DOUBLED IN SIZE SINCE CHRISTMAS!" "YOU MUST BE CARRYING TWINS, YOU'RE JUST TOO BIG FOR ONLY ONE!" your self esteem drops just a little bit. Like Poppy keeps telling me, "you're pregnant! You're gonna get big, duh!". I just wish everyone else would be a little nicer. I've only gained 12 pounds through the whole thing now, and when I got the last four last week you would have thought I'd gained ten and not even been pregnant. I took it hard. Anyway, there's all the reasons why I haven't had pictures done.

So, now that I did see the picture....wow, I am big! Not to say all those people that have said such nice things to me have a right to do so. BUT, I didn't realize I was as big as I am. To see yourself in pictures is a WHOLE new thing! At least we know Dixie is doing well, and is growing, healthy, and all that good stuff. Now, it's just a matter of a few more weeks!

We're really getting excited! Joey even got a little teary eyed last night watching "Baby Story"! He says just thinking about holding his daughter for the first time tears him up with so much emotion. He's going to be a GREAT daddy! I can't wait to give him the greatest gift any woman can give her husband!
