21 weeks
Well closer to 22 really..
Feeling even more enormous. And feeling and seeing constant kicks. There's not much more to say really. Except that the weeks are rushing by and we're no closer to being prepared for the big event! And I'm finding it strange suddenly remembering things about when I was carrying Bella, and realising that I am actually carrying another baby! And I'm also surprised by how much more I am aware of this time. And by how much harder my now 37 year old body is taking all of this. I"m telling you, it's not happy.
Bella is still dealing with it all very well and talks about her baby sister quite often. But it's still pretty abstract for her (and me!).
One great thing is that my non existing maternity wardrobe has just been given a much needed boost thanks to this great post by Autum and the link to the tutorial.
And I can confirm that Autum was absolutely right when she says how quick and easy this was to do. In no time at all I turned a super comfortable (but waaay to big when not pregnant) pair of normal combats in to a super duper comfortable pair of maternity combats. Yay!!
You can hardly tell that I did it myself! (much).
So anyway, Jim and I have been working all night at getting the house ready for tomorrows little party and it's waaaaay past my bedtime. Night, night ...
Look at that lovely belly!
Good luck for the party tomorrow and make sure you enjoy it all :)
love the cargo's too.

I don't think your bump is that big at all but I do think that MP-2 is going to come out wearing stripy tights!

When I had Joey, I was surprised by the toll it had taken on my poor body compared to my friends who'd had their children earlier...until my mom gently pointed out "Well, honey, you *are* in your 30s. It makes a difference." Well, who knew?
You are one sassy little mama, Manda! And halfway there - woohoo!
