My partner in crime (biscuit) is back on the scene, so she was able to snap a belly pic of me today. Please disregard my overall puffy PUFFY face and eyes because that's the norm for me these days. While the acne hasn't subsided since I was about a week pregnant - I now have the additional water retention in the ankles/feet, hands and face. I knew about ankle swelling but had no idea that my eyelids would swell to the point where I look like I'm having an allergic reaction. I am down to just wearing mascara because any additional makeup would just get swallowed by my fat eyelids. It's oh so beautiful. Oh well..only a few short weeks to go and our little girl will be here. I consider myself lucky that I don't have gestational diabetes or anything serious - so a little swelling (ok a LOT swelling) I can deal with. The hardest thing is writing these days. My handwriting was awful before - but now that my fingers are like sausages it is nearly impossible to write something legible. Sorry in advance to anyone who has to try to decipher my scribble!
Additonally, I have revamped the blog layout....again! Yes I know I did it a while back but I was really not happy with the result. I was just getting frustrated so I gave up and went with the last one that I got working. Now I think I've got it where I want it. I hope you all like - it's a lot cleaner I think.
Well, back to the grind. Enjoy the latest belly pic in all it's glory!
