Missing Tummy Pic Apologies

Well hello, there! It looks like I've been slacking off on the blogging lately. I not only did not post a "week 22" tummy picture, but didn't even take one! I looked up yesterday to realize that I was already over 23 weeks along and had missed the opportunity. So here's a stand-in week 22 pic:

JUST KIDDING! That's Kate Gosselin during her sextuplet pregnancy. Thank you, Kate Gosselin, for making me feel infinitely better about my pregnant body and less sorry for myself. I can always think, at least I'm not as big as you were. You go, girl.

The good news is, I'm nearly 24 weeks along already, so there's an actual tummy picture coming in just a few short days. And though I'm not Kate Gosselin big, I'm pretty darn big. People at work are already asking me, "How much longer do you have?!" You can tell they're expecting me to say a few weeks. They're shocked when I tell them that I still have 3 more months to go! And I promise I'll be sure to make all my scheduled tummy pic posts from here on out. Hopefully there will be about 7 more pictures before I'm done.

Here are the reasons why this week was too busy to even think about tummy pictures:

-Laney has double ear infections and the doctor has finally decided to put tubes in her ears on March 14th. I have mixed feelings about this.

-Laney came down with pink eye in BOTH eyes and had to be sent home from school. Poor baby.

-We've finally begun re-doing the guest bedroom into Laney's "big girl" room.

-Cheerleading tryouts began at school and stunting evaluations took up the whole night on Wednesday. The rest of the tryouts will take place next week.

-Marshall is burning the candle at both ends more than ever trying to balance work, grad school, and fatherhood. What a guy. So lucky to have him.
