the Bump Tour...

I've been looking around at the many other people in my life who are pregnant or have recently given birth and I find myself somewhat infatuated with their bumps.  Color me crazy, but I just get so excited for people and their bumps...it's just baby's first, "HELLO!" to the world and I love it!  Thus, I went back through my "weekly" bump pictures and other coincidental pics from the very start to watch Baby Jack grow and grow...

Definitely NOT preggo here (Summer 2011):

WOWZAAAAAAAAAA how my body has chaaa-aaa--aaanged!  Eeeeeeek!  I am not complaining because all of this excessive fattiness is worth it for my sweet boy, but dang, my self-confidence is shot to you know what, yo!  It is so amazing what a woman's body goes through in preparation for a baby and it's all evidence of a precious blessing to come.  It's been an absolutely AMAZING journey and we are beyond overjoyed to be welcoming a son and cannot wait to meet him in less than 9 short weeks.  So, as much as Mommy may hate the scale numbers, Sweet Baby, keep on growing!
