My gigantic, enormous 38 week belly

Yes, that is me.  And the baby belly.  And yes, it is huge.  People keep asking if there's only one baby in there (there is ONLY one baby!).  Hopefully little Elena (new spelling, I'm so glad!  Hubby finally decided!) will make an appearance fairly soon, maybe next weekend.  That would be quite convenient for my mom if nothing else as she's got a half day at work on Friday and is off Monday!

And yes.  Our tree is still up.  But I'm sure you can see why, what with this giant stomach in the way it's hard to do stuff!  We are hoping to get to it this weekend. 

Otherwise, my last appointment went fine, no change, just waiting around.  Trying to stay comfortable and not cry 24/7!  The hormones are doing me in!

Karina has been enjoying all her Christmas and birthday presents and gave herself a pedicure.

This is great nailpolish, too.  We discovered it peels off when dry and comes off in the tub!  She has really turned into a girly girl. I can't believe I'm going to have two of them soon.
