You girls are all too kind. I think I should post a picture on here once a week, just for my self esteem booster. :) As we all know, these last few weeks just feel huge and annoying. I am trying to enjoy them though, since its almost over.
Gina, the dress I bought just this past weekend at the Motherhood outlet in Gilroy - love it! I use it mainly to go over my suit, but lately I've been wearing it around the house and its SO comfy!
Haha! I loved your comment, Erin. No... it wasn't this big last month. Its sort of morphed into something quite large over the past two weeks. I've dropped too so I'm sad to say, I waddle a bit when I walk. :( My OB said the baby already weighs at least 6 1/2 pounds so its no wonder the belly is growing!
well, I think you all look absolutely beautiful when you're pregnant, so we're even. :) Thank you for all the compliments. You girls are really too kind.
I am seriously flattered by all your compliments. I'm always the one telling pregnant women they look so good, but I don't see it the same way on myself. I need to listen to my husband a little more. ;)
My secret? Chasing two toddlers around and keeping a busy schedule. :) In all honesty, its really that. I don't diet at all when I'm pregnant and we don't own a scale, so weight is quite far from my mind. I'd rather have a healthy baby. One thing that definitely has helped me this time is the Bradley Method class we took. It reminds you to focus on eating when you're hungry and only eating food that gives good nourishment to the baby; lots of protein, fiber, good fats, etc... that has definitely helped me this time.
You really do look great! And I can see what you mean about having moved into the energy phase again, you look like you could keep going like this for a while! :)

Was that a detailed enough answer? :)
