Pregnant Mel
I have some family and close friends who have never seen me pregnant. Every time they see me, though, we have a new little Hanners. One friend (you know who you are :) has been asking to see a picture of me pregnant because she can't imagine it. So this is for you, and anyone else who is curious.
I love being pregnant, and feeling a new life growing inside of me. Sometimes I worry that I might not want to stop having babies, and end up with several dozen children! But although I am not ashamed of my pregnant body, I am still slightly sensitive about remarks such as "Are you sure you're not having twins?" or "Whoa! You look like you're about to pop!" Trust me, during the course of four pregnancies I have heard them all! So tread carefully in the comments section. After all, I may not be "thin skinned" but I am really, really sensitive!

I think you are a beautiful pregnant woman! It's funny that you say many people have never seen you pregnant because I have only seen you pregnant. Of course, that's due to the fact that we haven't known each other too long ;) I was thinking we should have another play date this week. Maybe Friday again? I'll call you.

Melodie,
You look absolutely beautiful as ever. You are the greatest example of being positive while being pregnant. When I hear people complain about pregnancies...I often think about you Who never complains about being pregnant, no matter how sick you are or if you even have a baby without Morgan. Good luck and I hope you have a good L/D.
Miss ya guys tons, Jessica

You look terrific! It's getting close-- only 35 days!!!!! Is Morgan planning on being around? If not, do you have help? Do you need help? And if you win my contest (for commenting on a March post) do you realize how much postage I save? ;-)
Happy snow melt week to you (mud, and slush, wet gloves, oh my!)
