So I can still see my feet, which I will enjoy as long as I can.  This pregnancy has been different than my other three.  Well, they have all been different but this time I'm hotter and heavier.  I usually only gain 20-25 lbs. during my pregnancies, which is on the lower side, but I have nearly already reached 25 lbs. and still have more than two months to go!  * sigh * I'm just trying to remind myself that this is all temporary and a healthy baby is the goal.  Today I have my glucose test.  Wish me luck!  At the birthing center instead of drinking that vile orange drink for the test I'm eating 28 Jelly Belly jelly beans 45 minutes before my appointment.  Why doesn't every lab do that?!  In these photos I'm 27 weeks.

Andrew has been so patient with me in taking these photos.  He deserves a big pat on the back.

This is my first summer pregnancy in Arizona and I'm feeling it.  Elliot was born in July but we lived in England so the weather was ideal.  Avery was April, Zara was February which was just perfect!  I'll be the first to admit that this pregnancy wasn't my idea.  The timing, that is.  I was going to wait until after this England trip to start talking about it with Andrew, but Heavenly Father had other plans.  As hard as this summer pregnancy is, September really is the perfect time to have this baby.  We'll be settled into the new school schedule with Elliot in 2nd grade, Avery doing half day Kindergarten and Zara at home with me.  When the baby comes we'll start a new chapter in our lives - family of 6.  And hopefully by next summer I'll get the hang of having four kids.  Four kids.  It still sounds daunting.  But it's what we really want and our hearts will grow even bigger than we can imagine with the coming of this second son.  I'm 26 weeks in these pictures.

Oooo, I really love this dress.  It's light and classy and really comfy.  The best thing is it's not maternity but I went up a size and it fits great.  It'll be the perfect post baby dress, although I suppose it's not very nursing friendly.  I suppose a dress can't be everything at once.  I'm 25 weeks along here.

In an effort to embrace this ever changing and growing body of mine I thought it would be fun to share a few outfit posts.  These photos are from a few weeks ago, I think I'm 22 weeks along here.  As much as I don't like being pregnant this baby has been good to me.  My morning sickness wasn't as severe and didn't last as long.  I didn't loose weight my first trimester, which is new for me.  And this second trimester has been golden.  Apart from being super exhausted at times I've enjoyed feeling the baby move and my body go from the awkward chubby phase to cute round belly phase.  I also felt the baby have hiccups for the first time yesterday.  All my babies have hiccups a lot.  It's something I can relate to.
