“You don’t look that pregnant”
That’s what I hear time and time again whenever I mention that I’m 17 weeks pregnant.
What I’d like to say to that comment is “Well… guess what, my baby is a little boy with finger nails and little ears and you should see how big his feet are!!” (On our last sonogram the technician commented that he had really big feet for a baby… I’ll have to see if I can upload the image, but from the looks of it this kid is going to come out wearing a men’s size 13.)
but instead  of saying all of that, I just say “I know, but I promise he’s in there”
Brent doesn’t understand how people don’t see my belly.. “Your belly is huge!” he likes to tell me. But i have to remind him that he’s the only person who saw me on a regular basis in my skivvies pre-baby and it’s not always quite so obvious to others.
P.S. Tomorrow I’ve got a fun announcement regarding my Dear Baby blog. I’m really excited about it and I can’t wait to share!
Love,
M

Growing the Good April Charity: The Theodore Mulhollan Walk Team for March of Dimes.

Hello. I'm Melissa.

Wife to a rock n roll, super dad named Brent.

We're the adventuring type. Go. do. See.
We hit the jackpot when we had our daughter, Everly Veda in January 2010.
She has my eyes, his lips and a San Francisco heart.

In May 2011, we welcomed Arlo Redding, the most magical little dude ever into our family. His presence has made our good thing, even better.

We like old stuff and keeping it simple.
We believe in love, family and a good pair of cowboy boots.

Brent sings songs.
I write words.
And these sweet babies make our world go round.

Welcome.
