Is she just gaining weight, or is she pregnant?

I've reached that awkward stage much earlier with this pregnancy than with Dallin. So much so that at my last doctor's appointment before I left Utah, my doctor did ANOTHER ultrasound, just to make sure he hadn't missed one four weeks before that. No worries, he didn't, there is only one. For half a second, I was excited at the prospect, but then grateful that wouldn't be the case. This would not be an ideal time for twins. We're having a hard time figuring out where we're going to put ONE baby! Maybe in the closet with the food storage....

Just kidding.

Anyway, my first doctor's appointment up here is next Friday. It took me some time to get insurance figured out...and find a new doctor, since the one I was going to use became the bishop of our ward over the summer. No thanks. So I'll be 17 and a half weeks at this appointment. Which probably means we're going to have to wait four more weeks AFTER that to find out what the little tyke is going to be. I wasn't DYING to know before this...but I think I might be getting there!

Anyway, as requested, for your viewing pleasure, this is me about a week ago, at 15 and a half weeks. (I took this picture to send in my missionary brother's birthday package, so that's why it exists at all.) (Oh, and I call it "pretty pregnant" because lemme tell ya, Adobe Photoshop can work wonders...too bad it doesn't work on your appearance in real life....)
