Belly Status – 30 Weeks

I’m actually 31 weeks this week… but these pictures are from last week.  I stopped at my Mom’s house and we had some fun…

IMG_1769_edited-1IMG_1788_edited-1My poor husband and his rough rugged hands, but I love them!  You would never know that he has a desk job!  I think this is why she had to convert it to black & white… to hide all the scars.  You can’t see Jesse’s thumbs in this picture but I always give him a hard time about them.  To me they just look funny and not normal… I so can’t wait to see if Blueberry has his thumbs!! 

IMG_1798_edited-1If you have ever stopped over at my Mom’s blog you’ll see she has to take everyone’s picture on top of this dresser.  Except it is usually babies and toddlers.  I guess this is Blueberry’s ‘before’ picture and she’ll get the ‘after’ when she arrives! 

In a few more days I will have exactly 2 months left… give or take if she decides to come early or late.  2 months!  That is just unbelievable to me.

Every where I go people notice now!  Strangers love to tell me their horrible birthing stories!  I need to find a shirt that says… I only want to hear the good labor stories!  They want to know what I am having, if I picked out a name, when am I due.  No one has touched my belly though!  I have been waiting for that – but that hasn’t happened yet.  Oh and we when we go out for supper they like to say “A table for 2… and 1/2.” 

I even had one lady try to tell me how to name my baby!  She wanted to know what my Grandma’s name was and what Jesse’s Grandma’s name was and then put the two name together and create your own unique name.  That’s what she did for her little girl. 

Then we went out for breakfast on Sunday morning after church I ordered a Belgian waffle with blueberries & cool whip.  It was huge!  It was yummy!  And a waitress walked by and she says “Now you are feeding that baby right!”

It just makes me giggle how strangers love to see a pregnant belly!

I've been waiting for these pictures ever since your mom said on her blog that you did a photo shoot with her!! But only 3 pictures!! I need more! :) You look amazing! Beautiful as always and I so love that you're enjoying your pregnancy!!! If I saw you I'd be touching your belly :)

Oh, Lynn... you are one of the cutest pregnant girls I have seen in a long time. I love the pictures.
As far as good labor stories go, mine was awesome. My only lesson learned was not to wait to get the epidural... I didn't totally love being pregnant, but giving birth was awesome, magical, amazing, and I think you will love it. It is totally the thing to look forward to. I'm so excited for you... not too long now!

You look great! I love the pic on top of the dresser. We're getting super excited to "meet" your little blueberry!

I concur with all the other ladies, you are beautiful. You are such a lovely person and pregnancy is no exception. The poses are great and made me smile tons!

And Abbie's right, the labor will be fine. Whether you have a long or short go of it, you are going to have that beautiful little baby at the end and the rest won't matter. And, pretty soon you'll be sleep deprived enough to not even remember there was labor! Hee hee.

The labor was not that bad for me but it looked uncomfortable for Laura. If I were there I might be more tempted to touch Jesse's belly and thumbs than your belly but I can't figure out why. Maybe it would be best if I didn't touch anyone's belly so no one feels uncomfortable.
