Many years ago, I was introduced to this song. It has since been a life-long dream to make it a reality. And finally, that day has come. Please, sit back, and enjoy it's goodness.
Life is pretty great. And I'm pretty random.

Changing
Once I had a family member tell me about a friend who wanted to be a cartoon character. To further his likeness of a cartoon character he bought 5 of the same shirt, and multiples of the same of pair of pants. This way he was able to wear the same looking cloths every day, just like most Saturday morning cartoon characters.
Well, Mr. Friend. I think I am starting to beat you. Check this out:
I'm not sure why it goes into slow motion. However, just as Pooh bear's tummy noticeably moves when he's hungry, my tummy moves too! That would be Paily Jr. saying Hi. It sometimes startles me how much my belly moves! But it's pretty great!
(PS, I am well on my way to developing another cartoon-y trait. I'll tell you about it when it happens. You should totally be excited!)

Pregnancy Perk #3
As previously mentioned, I'm a squishy type girl. This is something I have been self-conscious about most of my life. I've been working on it slowly but surely. Then I was blessed with pregnancy, and i am no longer working on it. And yet, there is something really cool going on. You see, I am showing freakishly early. Yes, I am aware that it could be bloat, or water weight. Whatever it is, I look pregnant. Normally, squishy girls take longer to show, and for some strange reason, that's not the case with me.
I've always been the type to kind of avoid looking in the mirror when I get out of the shower. I wasn't happy with what I saw, so I just didn't look. The other day, I decided to take a glance, and this is what I found: I felt beautiful. Here I am, looking larger than I ever have in my life, and yet, I feel pretty. Right now, it's not some horrible thing that I need to try to get rid of. It's something that I have wanted for months. Well, years really. I just knew I needed to get married first. Sunday is Mother's Day, and though I haven't yet met my baby, I am a Mom! I am a mom, with a beautiful pregnant looking body. Pretty much life is rockin' my knee-highs!

Pregnancy Perk #2
(If you're looking for Pregnancy Perk #1, I didn't actually blog about it. It's just the fact that I'm making a BABY! Could that be any cooler?)
As most of you know, I am a bit squishy. (I don't use the term "fat" that's derogatory. And gross. It just makes me think of a bucket of Crisco, and I'm trying to feel good about myself.) I've never been insanely "Biggest Loser" worthy squishy. Just a bit. But my dear Hod loves me and all of my squishy-ness.
One result of squishy-ness is what I refer to as the "Great Divide". This is the part of my stomach where my pants sit, causing a section of squishy, a divide point, and another portion of squishy. Come on, I know you know what I'm talking about. It's something I've been self conscious about. Any of you who have never experienced the "Great Divide" may be thinking that I just needed to buy bigger pants, and that may have been true at one point, but really, all of my pants were a little too big before I got pregnant, and the "Great Divide" was still there. It is a mystery.
Which leads me to Pregnancy Perk #2. The disappearance of the "Great Divide". I realize what the counter at the top of my blog says, and yes, it's strange to be showing already. It is very possible that this is all bloat. (Although, Hod claims he can tell where baby is, because he found a firm spot.... let us just ignore the fact that the firm spot was my hip bone...) But whatever the cause I am big enough now that the "Great Divide" is no more! It makes me pretty happy. And really, seeing as in many ways this is my second pregnancy (and I've heard you show faster the second time) and I'm actually slowly losing weight (I eat, just apparently not quite enough. But the puking doesn't help either.) and genetically, I know my family, and we tend to be GINORMOUS by the end of things, I'm not surprised that I already look a bit pregnant.
So, at least for now, Goodbye "Great Divide". I can't say that I'm going to miss you. Thanks for the memories, or whatever, but thanks even more for leaving!
