6 Months!

It's hard to believe that we're at six months! I had Paul take these pictures right after we got in from our date night tonight (We went to the Crescent City Brewery - soooo good!) so you can actually see my face this time.
This is funny - it's schlumpy Liz with terrible posture! We have grown a lot this month, but standing this way makes the belly look huge!
For comparison, this is me four short weeks ago!




And everyone is doing well. Carly is connecting more every day with what is going on, and as for what is actually happening in there, our little jumping bean is very active! She usually wakes me up around 6:30 and asks for her breakfast by squirming around...we are STARVING in the morning...and then about half an hour after I eat a meal, she goes nuts! She gets her workouts for about fifteen minutes and then she stops with the Jazzercise and starts stretching, which is fun to watch - my belly takes on all sorts of shapes. Then she passes out until it's time to do the whole routine again at the next mealtime. She wakes up to play at about 11pm and she has a fun time aiming her kicks and elbows at anything that is getting in her space. Carly used to have this rhythmic kicking on one side of my belly, starting around now, but we don't have that with (Breanne) this baby just yet.

Okay! Well, Paul took off for training, so Carly and I are going to get going, too. We're heading to Fort Worth on Tuesday (YAY!) for a week of fun adventures with our friends there. She has a few new funny Carly-isms...
fountain = water mountain
car wash = Wash McClean

First of all, you're still in spandex---and looking great at six months!!! I don't even know what to say to that b/c jealousy on a Sunday must be an even bigger sin than usual.
Secondly, you look wonderful!!! And I can't believe you're more than halfway already! And while slouching does make it look bigger, you're still really tiny!

Its about time you look pregnant! So, is it really Breanne or is that a name Paul hates so you are using it like he uses Madison? I get the game now :)

You really do look amazing!! Is it just me or does the 2nd pregnancy go by so much faster than the 1st? Again, you look fantastic and I'm glad you're doing so well!

Oh, have sooo much fun in Fort Worth! I'm so envious! :) I have so many amazing memories from there and wish I could join you! Have a safe trip!
