What can I say? I'm a crafty woman.

Baby Borne is GROWING! She's over 4 pounds and I can tell that whatever brainpower I've had up until this point is now being sapped to help her little body develop. Yes, my brains have turned to mush. I'm also extremely tired. And I've experienced what my midwife called a "growth spurt". She gave a half giggle as she said this to me. Really this was her way of saying: "Honey, you've put on a few pounds since we saw you two weeks ago!" This is completely normal for a woman in her 3rd trimester, and while it's a comfort for her to tell me "You are ALL belly", it's still a surreal experience to have stepped on the scale, peered over my belly watching the digits go up to numbers never before imagined, and think "That's me?!".

It's a privilege to be part of this miracle God is working in my belly and it's pictures like the one below that offer a much needed sense of humor when experiencing a "growth spurt". :)
