really getting quite pregnant these days


This one time I was in a maternity store with my sister and stuffed one of those fake tummies up my shirt. Yup, psyched ya out, this picture is not recent. After the picture was taken I thought to myself "I can look like this when I'm pregnant, I just know it. I'll just work out and keep out of the chocolate bowl!"

Well the chocolate bowl in our house has now evolved into a chocolate cupboard and it's necessary. I must say, being knocked up is not what I expected. I don't know why on earth I expected my boobs to stay the same size (I miss the ones in the picture...currently mourning their loss) or why I didn't think my face would get fatter (it changes almost daily, always has). And did I REALLY think my hair was going to turn into this...


And yes, monday nights are currently my favorite night of the week.

But due to my most recent study, eating Froot Loops after every meal and skipping walks to take naps does indeed increase the dimensions of your butt. I don't know why I always surprise myself with these things. As mentioned in the previous post, I think I am as invincible as Catwoman...was Catwoman invincible even? How would I know...I'm too busy watching the Bachelor to read comic books!

I also never expected being pregnant to be so wonderful, and I MEAN IT. I have been really lucky to feel so good...with a nice hearty appetite that keeps me going all day long. And feeling the baby is about the most....and for lack of a less cheesy word I'm going to just use the only word that fits...it's magical. Yes magical. Like rainbows and unicorns (which I still find myself hoping will turn out to be real). I love this baby and I'm not ashamed to post a pic of my chubby self to show you how big he/she is getting...because I'm a proud mama goose!!! Oh it loves this blog post it's kicking right now!


Here's me with a real belly stuffed in my shirt and a real goofy smile and yes those are real ta ta's. I can't get over them OK?! And we all know you only come to my blog for the TMI anways. 

Ok pregnancy blog OUT.

personally, i don't see much difference from the fake-prego photo and the real-prego photo (minus some fringe bangs and an exquisite rack) you look great!

If you are excited for big boobs, wait till your milk comes in. BAM! All of a sudden they bulge out and it feels like you cannot even put your arms down when they are full!
You look amazing for being pregnant. A little jealous at how well you are doing!

I love froot loops too!!!! And golden grams. I go through a box a week haha. You look GREAT! honestly. After I had Malin I actually missed being pregnant a little bit... I dont think that will happen this time haha. So enjoy it. I bought a pregnancy dvd, and its still in its plastic! BAH! haha. Naps are way better, cause lets face it, it'll be along time before you feel like you've had enough sleep again. Looken good!!

Tina you are hilarious! And I love Paige's description of being engorged...haha! It's funny to talk about, not so funny when it's happening :) It's kind of ironic that when my boobs were the biggest they've ever been I wouldn't let Brock within 10 feet of them. TMI?
On another note you do look great! And I am so glad you are loving being pregnant! For living in the same city we sure don't see enough of you other Wildes!

You look fabulous!! I can't wait to meet the little ??? I don't know how you and Jennie can wait to know what you are having. I lived for that day to find out, so that I could plan and really get excited about it all.

Oh tina...you are just the cutest preggo girl that ever did live...I will continue to live in denial that when pregnant my body won't change and I won't turn into an oompa loompa...Oh and of course I also plan to be one of those girls who bounces back to be skinnier than I was before I was pregnant. You make pregnancy look so good, I might even try it one of these days....
