Then and Now

This is a picture of me at 8 weeks pregnant.  It shocks me that this is what my body used to look like.  Man, times are changing!  I had a waist!!


This is a picture of me now!  There is quite the difference.  I still have 3 1/2 months left..where will I be then??




Things I miss from when I wasn't pregnant:
* feta cheese
* ceasar salad
* caffeine
* margaritas, beer, and white wine
* not peeing in the middle of the night
* wearing high heels
* getting to wear all the clothes in my closet
* having ab muscles
* not having heartburn
* eating mexican food

Things I will miss about being pregnant:
* watching my body change, and knowing that as I grow, my little baby is growing too
* everyday having a new experience
* knowing my very existence is giving life
* knowing in every action there is a sacrifice for someone I love
* feeling him move inside me
* the fact that although I "haven't met" Tavian, I know him more intimately then I ever will again!
* having a constant companion attached to me :)
* being a constant testament to life..from the moment of its existence!

I am sure there is more in both categories that I can't think of right now.  However, pregnancy wins..nothing can compare to this experience!
