Monkey Toes!
Huh. Maybe I am showing, after all.

What with all the unanswered questions and scary possibilities from Wednesday's ultrasound, I almost forgot that there were also photos!

Thanks to LadyKay's Kiddo#2 for taking this photo and sending it to me!
Belly Shot #1: 14 weeks, 5 days
Nothing to see here, check back in a couple of weeks
I'd like very much to claim that what you're looking at in this photo is a brand-new "baby bump" (ugh, I hate that term for some reason!) but it's pretty much just some tummy flab that was there long before Peeper was a sparkle in anybody's eye.
Over the past couple of days, though, I have started to notice that my lower belly seems to be getting firmer, so I think Peeper is finally going over the wall, my uterus is clearing my pelvic bones, and I should expect to start seeing something soon.
So, I figured I'd better go ahead and get a baseline "before" photo, before I start having something real to show off!

I think these are our first official Mothers Day gifts (not counting those from the pups and kitties in past years). 
They are from LadyKay and her kiddos (thanks!) and arrived yesterday.
(Oops, were we supposed to wait til Sunday to open them?)
We're assuming that the "Mama" one is for me, and the "Mommy" one is for Shrike, since that's what Peeper will call us, respectively.
(Until s/he is too old/cool to have a "Mommy," then Shrike will be "Mom").
However, upon further consideration, it occurred to us that, personality-wise, they fit better the other way around, because I'm the bossy, controlling bitch and Shrike is more likely to be randomly pissed off and making everyone else's life hell.
(Love you, honey!)
So, I guess we'll just share them both, as we do everything in this way-more-enmeshed-than-can-possibly-be-healthy-but-it-works-for-us-so-fuck-you-if-you-don't-like-it life of ours.

This is Shrike and BigGaloot, and they are very cute and all, but notice the alarm clocks on either side of the bed. Evidently we sleep on the International Date Line.
(And, no, setting my clock thirty minutes ahead does not get me anywhere on time.)
Ok, I admit that I digitally enhanced the text on this sign, but only because you couldn't make it out on my fuzzy camera-phone photo.
This church is right up the road from our house, and I swear this is what it really says.
That's quite the guest speaker they've got lined up for tomorrow's service.

I've skipped the PhotoHunt for a couple of weeks, but hope to get back on track now.
(For some reason, memes have been really hard for me, since I've been pregnant. Odd.)
I didn't actually take this photo, because the signs aren't up anymore, but I got such a kick out of it (and others got so up in arms about it) that I just had to use it for this theme .
Other signs that I've seen around here (or back home) which would have made good photos for this theme:
I just realized that I never posted any of the photos from our Easter party.
I may have already published this photo of my cobalt collection, but it's the best that I had for the theme.

The wine and liquor glasss are on a shelf that is too high for Shrike to reach. Many times, I've caught her trying to fish one down with a spatula, and have insisted on getting it for her myself, because I'm convinced she's going to send it flying across the room. I guess she'll be on her own in a few months, when I've got too much baby-belly to reach the counter, let alone the top shelf!

Yes, that is a deer leg that BigGaloot is chewing on. He brought it home last week, and Shrike was kind enough to get photographic evidence before it disappeared.
I've suggested that she start guest-blogging about her dog-walking adventures.
We'll call it the "Doggies n' Dead Stuff Daily Diary."

This is my replacement wedding ring. Shrike and I ordered identical ones on our way to our anniversary dinner the night after Valentine's Day, and they came in a couple of weeks ago.
The funny is, I'd been talking for a while about getting them, and had been telling Shrike that I wanted them "before I get pregnant - because I don't want to be walking around all fat and pregnant with no wedding ring on!"
At some point, she said something that made me realize that she thought I was being superstituous and believing that I wouldn't get pregnant until I had a ring.
Now, that's just silly.
On the other hand, I picked them up two days after transfer, right as the Peep(s) was/were implanting.
Hmmm . . . .
