7 months/30 weeks

Okay, TECHNICALLY 7 months is 28-31 weeks, but I figured I could slide. It's been a while since I've done the ole "how fat" (or not so fat--SUCKAS!) am I now pictures. I have to say that I can't complain at all about being uncomfortable. I have really enjoyed this pregnancy and will really be sad to see it end. Thankfully, I've still got a few precious weeks left. I had my last 4 week appointment (I'll go every 2 now) on Thursday, and all is still going well. Dr. Collins flatters me every time with how "amazing" I look. ha. What can I say? I love flattery. He said, "I bet people are just starting to ask if you're pregnant." And it's actually true. One guy that I see EVERY week asked me on Sunday, "Julie, are you pregnant?"

My blood pressure is low. I've gained 14 lbs in 30 weeks, which hey, is pretty darn good...let's just pray it stays on the low end. He even said we'd talk about induction at the 38/39 week mark, which is EIGHT to NINE weeks away. WOAH! Not ready for that. Anyway, this is "us" now. Warning: these pictures get weirder as they go on. hahaha.


This picture is so funny to me. Don't you just love pregnant bellies? Where's my bikini?!

cool/weird
Cause I'm gangsta! :) Kidding
Travis liked this because he said you can "see the baby." My belly button ring is still not hurting and is pretty loose, surprisingly. With Sage, it looked like a burn, and I knew it was time to take it out.
*By the way, we have a name. We've actually had one for a long time now. Some may know; most don't. Sage asked me the other day if we had a name (she knows we do), and I said "yes.'' She said, "Then why do you keep telling people that we don't?" ouch, caught lying again by the 4 year old. I said, "I guess I should say 'it's a secret, huh?'" She thought that was much better.

So if you don't know, don't ask because we're not telling! I hadn't planned on doing that, but the more people asked, the more I wanted it to be mine until he's here. Maybe part of me has always felt like I may change it too. It's nothing crazy or off the wall. There's just so few things you get to keep to yourself. The people we have told seem to love it (unless they're lying--haha). So if you ask me again (one lady literally asks me at LEAST once a week), I'm saying "Barack." Until the end of May, it's our's to know and your's to find out.
