39 week belly pics

If you need a reminder, here are my 34 week pictures. Although I don't think I've gotten a tonne bigger in the last five weeks, my face sure looks round! This happens every pregnancy, so I really shouldn't be surprised, but still... whoa. Some lovely friends from the Embassy threw a baby shower for me last Friday (which I'll post some pictures and stories from as soon as I have the disc) and I was kind of shocked when I saw the pictures. Although I was either laughing or smiling ridiculously big in most of those. We really have been lucky in the community we found ourselves a part of down here...

Although I'm not smiling in this first picture (like most of the 34 week ones), I like that if you tip your head and kind of squint, I hardly even look all that pregnant. The stripes were working in my favour for once! 

Sort of.

So to prove that there is, in fact, a very large belly under those stripes, behold...!

While I was sitting on the floor for this next series, Andrew was on the bed clicking the remote for me. 

This is after I took the remote from him and he was trying to get it back,

34 weeks

39 weeks

And for a little different perspective...

A full-term belly is this spring's hottest accessory, didn't you know??
