Double Digits!!

As everyone can see, today is my first "double digit" day! I feel like a winner on Biggest Loser: "Congratulations, you've lost over 100 days!" With only 99 days left in my pregnancy, I can hardly believe time has gone so fast. When I first posted that baby countdown I was well over two hundred days and stilll in my first trimester. It seemed that baby would never come, yet now I'm down to 99. In exactly one week, I will enter my third trimester: the home stretch!

Pregnancy is not quite what I expected from all the horror stories I heard. I thought I'd be exhausted, grouchy, fat, hormonal, etc. While I have had my exhausted and grouchy moments, they've been few and far between (at least I think so! We'll ask Jon to verify!). I'm still wearing my regular clothes, which is apparently a feat for 26 weeks pregnant. No cravings as of yet. Mostly I just have problems with bending over and with the occasional crash into a wall (definitely starting to have balance issues). Life goes on as normal. I'm almost disappointed. When people ask me how my pregnancy went, I'm afraid I'm not going to have any horror stories to share. I didn't even throw up that much. I suppose I should feel lucky. Oh well! I've been complaining that I never hear any good stories about pregnancy. I guess I'll have to be the one to start a positive pregnancy story trend!

I can't believe that you still fit into your normal clothes. You saw the pictures - I was a boat. Of course, you are having a Boizelle baby... I'm glad pregnancy has been so great for you! Now you can single-handedly repopulate the Boizelle line! j/k We can't wait for Morgan to have a little friend. Keep us posted.

I can't believe you're getting so close! That's so exciting! And still no pictures. :( *sigh* Oh well.

You guys are still in Idaho, right? I may just have to convince Jason to drive us over there so I can see you in all your pregnant-ness.

How lucky you have been, Steph, to not need maternity clothes. At some point you might just have an expansion spurt. One of these mornings...

Do you have maternity clothes ready for that eventuality?

Oh my goodness! I can't believe how far along you are! Although I have never been preggers, I bet it's nice to not have had a horror story yet. (There's still 3 months...knock on wood and best of luck with your balance!:)

I feel the same way! I think we are just lucky. I have definitely hit the uncomfortable stage of pregnancy (kicking of the ribs and smashing of the bladder simultaneously - ouch!) but I still can't really complain.
