Sigourney Weaver has nothing on me

So hello. Yes I am still pregnant. Yes I still suck at it. Yes I am about as big as Jabba the Hut and feeling super sexy and comfortable and glorious. Truth is people this is about what it looks like at this point.,....
SUPER! Cankles. Cellulite where no cellulite has gone before. Stringy hair. Outie belly button. Some fun new stretchmarks. Somebody's chest that I have never met. In a word HOT!
Alas if I get any bigger I fear this will happen.This baby will just deliver itself Aliens style. I am pretty sure this gal won't have acid for blood and the need to kill everything in sight. But who knows.

P.S. I really am ready to have this girl out of my womb and into my lovin' arms. I am just at that paranoid place. I need to see her and count her fingers and toes and kiss her soft pink head and introduce her to all of her peeps. Hurry Eleanor! Do it for mommy!

Megan, I love you.

Yesterday my baby sister had a birthday. Now for all of you that don't know this gal, I am sorry. She is amazing. She is funny, smart, sassy, creative, caring, and about every good adjective that you can think of. She has been my hero for so many years that sometimes I feel like the birth order got messed up. She is seriously my favorite sister in all of the Universe. I love her! For reals. Meg, thank-you for being the kind of person you are. Here is a song for you.
"Did you ever know that you're my hero? Everything I would like to be. I can fly higher than an eagle....Cuz you are the wind beneath my wings. "
No seriously
There is no friend like a sister
In calm or stormy weather;
To cheer one on the tedious way,
To fetch one if one goes astray,
To lift one if one totters down,
To strengthen whilst one stands.
