half way

Today [Monday July 20] I officially hit the HALFWAY point!
20 weeks exactly, I feel like it has passed SO fast and I am ready for it to start slowing down. I am SO excited for our baby boy to come but I feel like this is the last bit of time Skyler and I are going to have together, alone for a looong time. We can't wait for baby, but we can...sounds kinda weird but makes sense in my pregnant mind. Let's pray for this 2 half of the pregnancy to go nice and smooth!

Here I am as of today, nice and huge

The other day I decided that I was going to go lay out by the pool and work on getting a tan. I am white white WHITE and would like just a little color. I never have much luck when it comes to laying out FLASHBACK A YEAR AGO TO MY HONEYMOONbut after a year has gone by I always forget how bad a sunburn hurts and go for it once again. So I spent maybe an hour out TOPS and was covered in lotion. It was windy so I didn't feel much of the sun at all and I actually thought I got out safe. Within a few hours I started to feel the burn and when I looked in the mirror, its HIDEOUS. I have the weirdest burn ever, its a big stripe down my face and my eyelids KILL...absolutely fried! I can't even open them up halfway!! I tried to take a picture but it just doesn't do the burn justice. SO anyway I am feeling particularly ugly and my loving husband has managed to make it worse, in the course of a day he has said:
" You look like a burn victim"
" You look like you got into a car accident"
" Woah, your face is SO swollen, its HUGE"
and most recently this morning, "It looks like you just got out of some bad plastic surgery"
Thanks hunny, what a gem!

anyways, I go in for my 20 week ultrasound on tuesday. I can't wait to see our baby and hopefully its still a boy [i have heard many horror stories about the tech getting it wrong!] I haven't taken any belly pictures recently but here's one from the 4th of july, I think I was 18 weeks?

i must be pregnant

I must be pregnant because.....

I am watching Michael Jackson's memorial and crying. I have never really had any feelings on Michael Jackson one way or the other. I never knew what I believed about him because people are money hungry and the media is sketchy. I did however appreciate his music and even one youth conference learned the dance to thriller and performed it at a dance festival. I can't help but to feel sad for a lost life of someone who made such an impact on music today. He obviously has changed many people's lives and many people had a great love for him. Please excuse my pregnant, over emotional self right now. I hope his family and loved ones find peace in God's plan for us all to return to him one day.
