the beginnings of a belly

This well-insulated, average pear is becoming a bit more of an apple, and my teeniny inhabitant has erased my waist as I knew it. Don't get me wrong--I am excited to start showing, but it has surprised me because all of the sudden, this week, people at the hospital have been staring at my belly and asking about the baby. Brave souls! Maybe since so many people in medicine are socially awkward to start with, they wouldn't be mortified if they were wrong... 

So, to appease the masses--yeah right, the moms--here are the beginning of the belly shots. Excuse the inherent heebiness of my self-timer pictures, the call room greasiness, etc.

How cute, Sara! You look great. I just wish I had an excuse for a "baby?" bump. I walked 8 miles this morning and I have been eating all day.
We are excited for you and know you will make fabulous parents!

Just wait til you are pregnant w/ #3. You will be bigger at 16 weeks, because I am so much bigger than you. I'm so jealous, you look amazing!
