First Belly Shot

We bought a kite for Carlee today, and took her to the park to fly it as soon as we got home from base. Tony got a picture of us, where you can see the belly already. (The way my sweater fits makes my belly look a bigger at the top then it really is, but it really does stick out at the bottom like that. I'll try to take a better one soon.) It amazes me how different this pregnancy is from my first. I didn't show with Carlee until 4 (or maybe a bit more) months, with this one I was uncomfortable in my normal jeans by the end of the first month. I am now 3 months! Woohoo! Second trimester here we come!!!

Awww! I wish I could rub your baby bump and say hi to him/her. Is Carlee getting excited yet?

Sheena said...

:) oh yeah, she's excited, especially now that she can see a difference. She just told me yesterday, "Mommy! You're growing! You're growing my baby sister!" LOL She's too funny.

AW! How cute... baby bump is one of the things I miss about being pregnant. Carlee's a riot... how would she feel about a brother?? :/

Emy said...

Awwww! I bet you're one of those cute pregnant women! And the one who's cute afterwards as well! :D

By the way, I say you guys should come near DC!

mrs. g - I really enjoyed being pregnant with Carlee, and so far, I'm enjoying this one as well. I've been lucky. I can't wait to start feeling him/her kick though :D I think Carlee would be okay with a baby brother. I think she just automatically says sister 1) because I'm always saying sister (I'm hoping for another girl lol) and 2)most of her friends have baby sisters (even if her friends are boys she doesn't get that they are the big brother, just that they have a baby sister) haha

emy- I don't know about me being cute while pregnant lol especially towards the end. I don't think I am. And of course I would so be up for DC area, now I have friends and family in the area... but I'm sure Tony would refuse. He was in norfolk for school and hated it. Although, I think he'd probably take anywhere in the states over sicily.... :) So we'll see. We start picking orders in August. Looking foward to it.

The first thing I noticed when I saw the photo? Your hair! It sure got long, it's very pretty.

Sheena said...

oh my goodness, yeah it's really long. I really need a hair cut. LOL especially because it's going to get really hot really soon, and my hair will be driving me insane. :) I think I cut it last this time around last year, maybe a little later in the summer.

"anywhere in the states over sicily" yeah, that about sums it up.

great pic! I did monthly belly shots last time, and this time the fam will be lucky to get one per trimester, lol.

any GN receiving blankets in your stash? I'll show you how to sew them up into diapers anytime :)

Sheena said...

lol, I'm definitely doing worse this time on the photos.. last time I had monthly pictures also, from the very first night we found out! This time, that was my first picture, and it wasn't even posed. I need to get on the ball! lol I do have some of those blankets, let me know when is a good time to come over. :) I would really appreciate you showing me how to sew them.
