36 weeks!



36 weeks is 9 months. we have around 4 weeks to go. apparently, the gestation period for a human is 10 months, not the 9 months i had been led to believe. i had no idea.

ali's cheerful demeanor in these pictures belie the fact that her feet hurt, her back aches, and she feels like a beached whale (her words, not mine). she is a real trooper, and i have a serious amount of respect for what she is going through. seriously, i would be a sniveling, whining, puddle of a man if i had to go through the whole pregnancy thing...

so yeah. good job moms. thanks for everything. i really appreciate it.

Ali, you look absolutely PREGNANT! You look very lovely and I am sorry about your sore feet. Thanks for FINALLY taking some new pics!

Well, at least you only look like a beached whale when your pregnant. It could be worse. Try rolling to your stomach and pushing off with your hands and bended knees.
