a human pinata

I went to the Doctor today for a checkup. Turns out that the little woman inside my uterus is HUGE!!! This is all good and fine, because who doesn't want a brick house for a daughter...but there is no hole on my body that's big enough for her to come out of. Crazy, but true. At this point in pregnancy I (probably along with several other women) begin to wonder/worry about how their babies will greet the world. I know that I am having a c-section. Fine...bring it on. Its still un-nerving...its major surgery!
I have not gained hardly any weight...infact, it seems like I've lost weight in certain areas...my legs for example. This sweet adorable little baby girl is eating me alive!!! As of this coming Monday...it will be 14 weeks until D-day. Yikes! I feel like there is more pressure in raising a daughter than a son. Maybe because I know how manipulative girls can be...I know I was. As long as I gave my dad a kiss on the cheek, I got whatever it was I wanted...and he felt happy and loved. Girls make me nervous! I am excited for Jeff to experience the whole father daughter relationship...it is priceless.
So, Tallulah will be big and she will be beautiful. I'm starting to get excited to meet her. Excited to see what color her hair is and what she looks like.

I rocked Israel to sleep tonight. I hated to put him in his bed. He was so peaceful and warm. I will miss it when he's older. I guess that's why people have more and more babies. Someday Israel will tower over me and probably talk back,,,hell, he talks back already...but right now it makes me laugh.

Time for bed. I will soon be longing for these days when I got a full night's sleep. Too bad Jeff can't breast feed the new baby...I could get a lot more rest that way.

breast feeding is the coolest activity since water polo.

all men should have mammary glands installed into their breasts so that they can fully enjoy one of God's great pleasures on this earth.

i have no idea what any of that means other than that i love you guys and your (un)born children.
