So I've been spending so much time paying attention to Elisha's belly that I think I forgot about my own. I've done a really good job of putting on sympathy weight. I'm pretty sure I have gained at least ten pounds since we found out about the pregnancy. My reasoning for this is that I'm eating for three now (the baby, Elisha, and me) so that I can see how much food I need to be able to afford.
Elisha bought me this shirt last year for Christmas so that I would have something Christmas-y to wear for the holidays. When I decided to pull it out this year I realized how bad I've gotten. I guess I will have to save it for next year.
Don't worry, I won't subject you to a weekly picture of my belly. I'm sure that it won't change as rapidly as Elisha's. Maybe once a month or so. I am going to try to lose those new 10 pounds by the time the baby is born. Some of you already roll your eyes when you see me buying even more candy at the store. Now I am asking you to not only roll your eyes, but make me feel real bad about the purchase as well. I will probably still buy the candy, and get mad at you, but I will also appreciate the support.
For the record, the shirt was a little tight when I got it last year!

This post is hilarious! I loved it. I will make you feel bad about your poor food choices even if you get mad at me. That might even make it more fun.
Just so you know I had a dream last night that you were having a girl, so maybe we wont have to trade after all
Go you! I need to do the same thing after Christmas. I was going to try and diet before, but lets face it, that'll never happen.
Nobody said anything about dieting before Christmas...I just said that I'd allow dirty looks and rude comments about my waistline. Christmas is too nummy to diet during.
That is hilarious. Brett gained about 15-20 lbs during my last pregnancy and never got it off. This time he is much better and hasn't gained anything...yet.
