I'm Never Alone

So here we are, 16 weeks tomorrow, and we have 4 more weeks to go until we find out the gender of LP. It is so hard to wait!!!! We all know I am hoping for a girl, insert the obligatory "I am happy as long as the baby is healthy" speech and gender doesn't matter, because we all know it does.

It kind of freaks me out to think that I could be growing a tiny penis inside of me right now. Another thing that freaks me out: knowing there is a little person inside me at all times, accompanying me as I do all of my daily activities, such as going to the bathroom. I guess this is preparing me for when the baby does arrive. I suppose I will be lucky if I can go to the bathroom by myself for a while. I also feel guilty doing things I maybe should not do because LP is always there, like when I polished off the bowl of leftover Halloween candy (we only had 2 children come, so the bowl was pretty full). I feel compelled to explain myself.

Things I wish I knew:
-Pregnant women produce less tears, leaving you with dry eyes. Kind of ironic considering we do a TON of crying, mostly over nothing, like when I didn't get my Netflix movie when I was supposed to. I chastised the mailman for hours, blaming him for all of the bad things in the world, when I found the movie under the newspaper later that night. Then I cried again after I found it. Then I could only get through 20 min of the movie because it sucked, so I cried.

And because so many of you keep asking me for pictures...
