the countdown begins

people have stopped asking how far along i am and have started asking how much longer i have. geez. the time to push my child through my loins is fast approaching. at the end of this month (according to the baby books i'm reading), the baby will be between 5-6 pounds and 16-18 inches. whoa. doesn't the human head weigh that much? or wait (trying to remember lines from Jerry Maguire) is it 8 pounds? either way, i'm still in awe about the magic and miracle of life. i'm going to miss feeling (and watching) her move around in my belly, but that's it...you can take everything back, including the stretch marks and crotch pain LOL no, it wasn't that bad...definitely something i'd do again, just not immediately after like Byron had hoped LOL
