12 weeks belly pics



Since I am actually past 12 weeks now, I have decided to start doing belly pics on Thursdays so Jeff can take the pics for me and I don't have to the annoying mirror shot.. I definitely look BIG.. but I don't know if I look pregnant...
We went to Ikea up in Canada today, and there was SUPPOSED to be a gap maternity right down the street, but apparently.. according the gap worker, they "Bled out" the maternity selection recently and will no longer be carrying it.. Is bled out a canadian term for phased out? Anyway, the girl at gap definitely gave me the belly glance..as I was asking for maternity clothes.. It was awkward.. cuz I still just feel chunky..

All we bought at our trip to IKEA (which is 1.5 hours away with no traffic, and our drive up there took much longer, since it was rush hour-ish.. ), was a bunch of stuffed animals for baby and some cat toys. Oh.. and some batteries and a cool magnet strip thing with pen holders that i can stick to the wall in the office. I think its super cool, but Jeff seems to think its silly. I was hoping to find a new comforter cover and maybe some light fixtures or some organizational stuff, but really, not much.. We did eat meatballs though.. which is key.. IKEA chocolate bars however, not so awesome.

You look great! I will have to see what Ikea has to offer in toys. But on a weekday, a weekend trio there is a nightmare!

OH, Melissa, you know I have followed your journey close and you have no idea how happy I am for you. I watch your lil belly grow and I swell with happiness in knowing your strugle to get to this point. The belly bruises are looking much better. I just know this is the one and everything is going to be great.

Hey one thing though, when you wear the black top, you are going to have to have Jeff take a picture with the fridge in the background. lol. With the room behind you dark, you can't hardly see the baby bump. haha. Take care hon.
