20 Weeks

I'm 20 weeks!  That means I'm half-way through this pregnancy!  It's all downhill from here!  If a pregnancy only lasted a week, I'd be on Hump Day! 

Here's beautiful Baby A giving you a stunning profile shot.  Doesn't she have my cheekbones?  ;)  I got my big mid-pregnancy ultrasound done today, and she looks perfect.  She's measuring exactly on track, and her heart and all her organs looked like they were functioning and forming perfectly.  Phew!


And, here I am at 20 weeks pregnant.  I'm so sorry I look so ugly.  You see, not only had I just woken up from a marathon nap, but I'd cried off all my makeup in therapy earlier that day, and really, looking okay today was a losing battle.  I thought about trying to hide my mug by super-imposing a sugar cookie with pink frosting over my face, because let's face it, it's not just my face that needs help, but my hair too (PLUS SUGAR COOKIES ARE DELICIOUS).  But seeing me a la natural you unfortunately get.  SO TAKE IT.

You are so pretty Brie! Even with smudgy make up. And I am uber jealous of your marathon naps. I could definitely use one! I am glad that little miss is growing well + looks healthy!

Brie, you look more fabulous unmade-up and pregnant that most people could ever dream of. And I know the pregnancy thing is a big challenge but hang in there and think of what an awesome thing you're doing. You're making a person, a human being that is going to love you unendingly. Right now your body is working pretty much as hard as it ever will in your life, try to give it the benefit of the doubt and please keep on taking care of yourself. You're awesome, always glad for the updates!
