Yesterday someone at church told me I looked like Megan Fox. I thought, "Megan Fox WISHES she could have a figure like mine." Just kidding. I almost kissed her. Fatty pregnant ladies like to be favorably compared to sexy actresses. She was probably buttering me up to ask me for a horrible favor soon. And it will work.

Notice how my 26 week bump is pointing right at my new white couch and tv doodad? Awesome. Almost like I planned it.

And yes, I realize I am completely insane for picking out a white couch with 2.5 young boys in the house. I have very high hopes for keeping sticky hands off of my new little beauty. Wish me luck.

This is just a small taste of the photo mania sure to come when I'm feeling better/have had a nap. The couch is part of my Christmas present that was picked up in Arizona on the way back from Disneyland. Hence the lack of blogging.

Aaand it seems that in my time away I've forgotten how to blog as this post is very random.

oh and I totally had that shirt when I was prego!! I loved it until something in my washer bleached horrible spots into it. :(

I am so happy to see a post from you! I love all your posts, even random ones! Your belly is so cute, and I really like the shirt.

And the couch is SO AWESOME! You are way more brave than Todd and me. It would never make it in our house. Our couch has sticky hands on it every single day! It looks really great!

Can't wait for more pictures!

Your bump is so cute! And I don't think you have an ounce of fat on you.

Yes, good luck with the couch :)

You guys are all so nice... Thanks. The pregnancy fatness comment stems from the fact that I only have 4 pounds to go until I gain my 20 pound normal gain.

Uh... I have 14 weeks left. Yeah. And I've sort of forgotten what it's like to have a normal sized bump as this is about as big as I got at 37 weeks with Banks. But I am glad that a bigger bump/more weight will likely equal a normal sized baby this time and not a scary mini one!

not to just echo everyone else's comments, but i LOVE this photo. it makes me long for having a space of my own so bad i could cry. and you look adorable (even though you are headless).

20 pound normal gain? yeah, so let's not talk about how much i have gained so far. it's a deal.

Carrie you look better at your 26 weeks than I do right now NON pregnant! You look terrific! I'm so glad you posted.

Oh and random is my middle name. But you probably have figured that out by now.

Caity said...

Oh and also, it's a good thing you don't live closer because your couch would stand no chance with their Soelberg cousins :) But I want you to live closer, so this comment makes me sad :(

You are one of the cutest pregnant people ever. I would look at people like you with envy when I was pregnant. Your white couch is beautiful. My husbands family had a white couch growing up and there were 10 kids. Somehow it survived but I'm sure my mother in-law has some good tips on stain removal if you ever need them:)
