sara without an h

down and outie.

my bellybutton is this close to being an outie. exhibit a: exhibit b:

chocolate milk is the best thing ever.

that glass of chocolate milk (organic, low-fat and fortified with DHA omega-3!) i just drank was the best thing i have ever tasted. EVER. seriously. i never knew anything could taste that good. am i pregnant or what?! work was very long and tiring today. i have two more equally long and tiring shifts tomorrow and tuesday before i finally get a day off (my first in almost a week)! i just have to get through this week and part of the next before my trip to pennsylvania. i can't tell you how excited i am to see my family and friends! we're all getting together to celebrate our baby shower and my parents' 40th wedding anniversary. it should be a wonderful week and just the kind of trip i need! ******** on a completely unrelated note, can we talk about groin pain here for a second? the last two days it has felt like i'm wearing underwear made of PAIN. have i been doing the splits? moonlighting as an olympic gymnast? doing the hustle with a little too much gusto? NO. i am growing a human, and i'm pretty sure that's more tiring than all of those things combined. still, with only 10-13 more weeks left to go in this pregnancy, i find myself wanting to savor every kick, nudge, and flutter. searing groin pain or not, this has been the most magical 6+ months of my life. you stay in there, baby girl, and keep on cooking! we'll finally meet when the time is right. and now for your viewing pleasure, i present THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING BELLYBUTTON! i give it 4 weeks max before it's a full-fledged outie.  also note my sweet (if very faint) linea nigra! well, it's about time for me to take a bath, drink another glass of chocolate milk and watch some lost.  i hope everyone has a safe and happy memorial day!

the incredible shrinking belly button!

i have always had an innie, an amazingly deep innie.  we're talking the mariana trench of belly buttons.  i am proud to announce that for the first time in my life, i can see the bottom of my belly button!  i'm just a few pants sizes away from having a certified outie.  i just hope it doesn't end up looking anything like michael kors' abdominal atrocity. this must be sweet redemption for any project runway contestant he ever helped auf.  seriously, wtf is that about?
