...what's up with me and pregnancy related incidents in gas stations? (Note: one of the pieces of advice from the last post was given to me as I was checking out at a Speedway in Dayton)
Today, Coleman, Andy, Jen, and I were driving to South Bend for a conference. We stopped at a gas station to visit the facilities (shocking, right?), and as Coleman, Jen, and I are walking toward the door, a random man getting in his car yells out to us, " 'Bout ready to have that baby, aren't ya?"
I responded, "Well, not as ready as I guess I look. We've still got a few weeks."
His reply: "Wow."
Was that 'wow' really necessary?? It certainly didn't sound flattering. It's not like I'm gigantic or waddling around unrecognizable (yes, I acknowledge that this is an unfair statement since I haven't posted a belly pic in forever, but for once it's not my fault. I had Coleman take one but now we can't find the cord to upload it from the camera to the computer. I'm working on it! Until then, you'll have to trust me.).
Jen just kind of laughed and shook her head. Coleman's comment was, "Aren't you used to that stuff by now?" Apparently, he has been keeping up with the blog - and yes, I am pretty used to it by now.

Let's see that belly, I bet it can't be as big as mine was. And I'm sure you look just beautiful. I think that people just want to share your wonderful miracle.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to hear that you're doing well and can't wait to see pictures of the little princess. Hopefully a cold front will come through for your last few weeks. I'll be thinking of you and waiting to hear the news. Take care, Lisa B.
