What were you discussing with your doc that he can't help and there's nothing to make it better?
I love the Jimmy Jacks guy. I can literally hear it in my head.
Hopefully Jack Jack makes it here sooner than later! It would be nice to be fully recovered before you have to move.
Although I am glad we're not there during this terrible year of weather there in Iowa.
I love the black lady's comment. Classic. That really made a good start to my day. Love it!
You are funny . . .you could teach a class on how to NOT get your belly rubbed during pregnancy. Millions in the making. Everyone at my work wanted to touch me all the time when I was pregnant! Crazy people!
Good luck with baby Jack! Can't wait to see some pictures.
Hilarious post. I can TOTALLY see the Anthony conversation. Oh Berg.
Puh-lease teach me how to keep people from touching the belly. It's a fear of mine. Why do strangers think it's ok?
I love the post...you are so funny!
