18 weeks

I have reached the point where I now look pregnant, not just like I've suddenly gained 10 pounds. It seems like all of a sudden it happened; I went from having a pooch in my stomach one day to having a round, full tummy. I have dreamed of this point all of my life. Sort of... for some reason I have been enthralled with pregnancy since I was little. When my sister and I were little our favorite dress-up was shoving pillows under our shirts and pretending we were pregnant. We have both dressed up as pregnant women for Halloweens and I was looking at some pictures today and for the circus my class put on in kindergarten I was not just any clown, but I was a pregnant clown! We loved the jean maternity jumper my mom had from the eighties and always looked forward to the day when we got to wear it. And now the time is come! I am loving the adventure so far and can't wait to be able to hold our little "IT" as Gabe calls 'it'.
