I was supposed to post a photo of myself at 32 weeks, but now I’m 34. So below is a photo from this past weekend of me at 34 weeks and my friend, Julia, who is 21 weeks pregnant with twin girls! Fun to have friends to share this with! I also thought I’d share some of the wonderfully encouraging comments I hear when people see me…
1) The ever-classic “Are you sure that’s not twins?!” I’ve heard that one at least 3 times.
2) “You are NEVER going to make it to your due date!”
3) From men who are not considered “trim” – “I never thought your belly would be as big as mine!”
4) I think I heard this about 786 times at church yesterday – “WHOAAAAA!!!!”
5) The best yet… Since we have named our son Noah, my friend Dan commented that he thinks I “may also be carrying the ark.” HAHA… thanks a lot, Dan!
Truth be told, I’ve gained a very average amount of weight, thank you very much!! This little boy is moving and shifting and kicking constantly, so he must be well-nourished!

LOVE the pic Casey! You are adorable! Those comments are just amazing…it’s crazy what people feel welcomed to say! I gained a completely average amount of weight with Trevor (note: he DID wind up being over 9 pounds-so I was probably huge)… anyway, I had someone who definitely should’ve known better ask me “Is your doctor okay with your weight gain?” Of course NOW, I can think of all kinds of witty come-backs…but then I just smiled, nodding.

My best friend in College Station finally quit making public appearances, modeling herself after Christ who went into seclusion! Both of you just aren’t terribly tall!
