B.U.M.P (Baby Under Manufacturing Process)


(don't I look really excited to be taking this picture?)

Okay, I feel very narcissistic putting up individual pics of me, but there are a couple reasons for it. One, I have not blogged in 6 weeks and people are getting annoyed, and two, I have had many requests for “baby bump” pics.
Each month, since month one, Mike has been taking pictures of me in the same sports bra and shorts from the side to see the growing bump. First few months you could see small changes, I don’t by any means love these pics, but I dealt with them, they were okay. Then, last week we take the 6 month pic… Mike shows me it and I was SHOCKED! I couldn’t believe that it was me (I know, I see myself everyday, but seeing it in picture form is way different and I must say a little scary). Didn’t want to put those up on the blog so we decided to take a couple pics of me with clothes covering my stomach. Much more tolerable than the bare belly pics.


The good thing about this expanding belly is that it means Baby Luke (as Julie calls him- I love it!) is getting bigger and bigger and growing into a healthy baby so I have to say I am happy about it. I cant believe how much I love him already. He kicks me all the time, especially when I am in the car by myself belting out “Womanizer” by Britney Spears. He must love her music just like his mommy or maybe he just loves to dance like his daddy! This morning Mike wouldn’t get out of bed and Luke was kicking, I was bored and I found myself wishing he would be out already so I could play with him. Okay, I am rambling…I hear that's normal
I also wanted to include my awesome husband (who spent the whole day cleaning out the babies closet with me!). He’s enjoying some frozen yogurt from the Yogurt Shack. My one craving during pregnancy is vanilla frozen yogurt with reese’s peanut butter cups on top. I probably have one at least once a week. Here’s Mike enjoying one of his own (while not being able to keep his eyes off the world series that's on TV)
