Why is it that I feel like I need to pose for the camera? Trevor didn't prompt me to pose, but somehow I just did. It takes me back to traveling through Europe and feeling the need to pose like the Trevi Fountain in front of EVERY fountain I see. Silly really, but kindof a girl thing, I guess. One of my good high school friends (Mares) always tipped her head to one side for pictures. It was so funny, and I totally relate to the automatic response to the camera. I don't love solo pictures of myself but, here it is. Not that exciting. My shirt hides it a bit because I feel much larger than this picture makes me look. (Especially late at night, like just now when we took the picture. I just got home from class. Long day.)
Baby reminded me repeatedly that she was in there today. It felt like she had her little heel pushed straight into my stomach for most of the afternoon at work. My mom asked me if I had felt the "fireworks" inside of me yet, and today I did. I didn't really know what she meant when she asked me that, but I couldn't think of a better way to describe how I was feeling today. How wonderful to have moms, sisters, and great friends who have lived through this experience as well!

Katherine,
What a fun picture!! You barely even have a bump but you can tell that there is a little baby inside. Fireworks is a good description. Just wait until everyone else can actually see her making the movements that you have been feeling for months! Also I like the fabric -- very fun!!
Kath,
I LOVE the fabric. I always like baby stuff that isn't babyish! You know what I mean? It is going to be absolutely darling. And I am so happy to see a picture of your bump, it is really cute. Ohhh!
you look so great--I love the bump! Seems like all of a sudden it just pops out there and one day you're no longer able to wear your favorite jeans (speaking hypothetically of course ;) keep posting new pics every few weeks so we can chart the changes!
Katherine,
I am so excited for you. There is nothing more wonderful than to have your little baby girl look up and give you a smile. They grow up too fast, my little Julia is already 7 months. I saw your blog link on Camille's page- it is fun to read about your life in VA.
