Belly Pix... and Lucia's new haircut

OK - the only reason I consented to take the belly pictures was to show off Lucia's new summer haircut (yes, this is an excuse, because I am feeling BIG right now...)...
Lucia's new haircut - she chopped at least 6 inches off!
Here they are - Front, Side & Back - my mom insisted on the back shot because (and she is right I think), I really haven't gained much weight outside of my stomach/hips (and a tad on the thighs) - nothing that getting back to running and getting re-filled shouldn't fix post-delivery!  I am 40 pounds up now, but I really think a bunch of it is him...  I'm hoping to lose a good 20 pounds from delivery alone (a girl can hope)!!!




It is really fun to know that in looking at these pictures at almost 35 weeks pregnant, my "butt shelf" hasn't come back, I still have my collar bones, my size 7 ring still fits comfortably (and was big before I got pregnant), and I can still get into L/XL shirts from the boobs up - so the weight definitely is in that mid-section area!  And no doubt, he is a BIG BOY...  People keep dropping their jaw when they find out I still technically have about 6 weeks to go.  However, as I think I shared in the last post, I now have less than 3 weeks and counting hopefully...   The doctor confirmed that my new c-section date is scheduled for the 14th, assuming that he passes the amnio / lung test on the 13th... So my fingers are crossed that all of that happens, and we can meet him on the 14th!

Awww loving Lucia's hair cut. Very cute. Hey if you can breast feed. It takes off a LOT of weight. I wish I had when I had my son.
