All in all, we're hanging in there. We had some snow storms in the last few weeks, which enabled me to enjoy The Commute from Hell. My normally 45 minute to an hour commute? Took me 6 hours. Awesome. E lost her third tooth on the bottom, but I'm convinced that she will be in braces before the year is out because the two adult teeth that are growing in the space where these 3 baby teeth were? Occupy about 90% of it. But, seeing as John had braces, and I single handedly funded at least one of my othodontist's Mercedes back in the day, I'm really not suprised.
Anyway, here is the growth progression of the belly. In a nutshell, I'm huge. I'm pretty sure I waddle now. Small objects, such as crumbs, cannot escape it's gravitational pull. And, for the first time ever, the OB told me I was measuring ahead. Which is a little off-putting, since I measured normal for both E and A...and they were 8 lb 12 oz and 9 lb 6 oz. If this one breaks the 10 lb mark, I'm going to be pissed.
On the bright side, I go on Tuesday for an ultrasound to determine size. I'm also hoping for one more confirmation of gender before we select paint colors and buy crib sheets. Because, yeah, we have 8 weeks to go and still haven't done anything! Ack!

You look gorgeous!! (And I'm not just saying that!)
I second JB's comment (and I'm not just saying that either!).
You have the classic, cute, "she's got a basketball under her shirt" look.
BTW, if it makes you feel any better, when Graham arrived, we hadn't even unpacked any baby stuff. There was a crib and a glider and lots of packed boxes. I felt weepy about it when I came home for about 20 minutes, but then realized he had NO idea.
I love the progression shots - if for hair style comparisons if not for your gorgeous belly. So excited for you! And don't worry about all the stuff. E will be holding her all the time.
I think you look fabulous too! I gained 68 pounds and I am only 5 feet tall. I didn't even document that hot mess in pictures!
