Ok, no opinionated rants today.  Just a couple photos of my growing belly.  Little Bean is growing bigger and stronger every day.  The Bean is already head down and spends much of his/her time with their little butt pressing up around above my belly button. I am starting to feel what I think are elbows and knees…not uncomfortable but definitely different/unusual sensations.  Even Papa can feel these movements and sometimes see them.  Bean is still quite active, which makes us all happy. 

I’ve gained about 20-22 pounds (depending on what time of day I weigh myself), which makes Aaron and my midwife very happy.  About 8 more weeks to go (really anywhere from 6 to 10 weeks, depending on when the Bean decides to come out), and I’ll certainly gain more during that time.
