Baby O., you're back into your habit of hanging out on the entire right-hand side of my body. It's very odd. I think you like to see how far you can stick your butt out under my ribs. It's just this hard protrusion. And when I push on it (it doesn't move, either), I feel your head (I presume) on the left-hand side of my pelvis. When I let go, you wiggle your head around. I think I actually wake you up once in a while when I do this. It probably annoys you, but I find it amusing. Just one of those things to get used to, I suppose: Me annoying you for my own amusement. Just wait until I get in dress-up mode with you, posing you in every outfit you have just to take picture of you. Mwah-ha-ha!

Anyway, there are some pictures online of the baby shower they threw for me at work. Keep in mind, dearest daughter (and dear reader) that this was a surprise. I was late yesterday morning, and I have no makeup or anything on. At least you can visualize how I can lose 10+ inches of my hair and still have long hair! So, forgive my baaaaaad appearance, and enjoy! The guy opening presents next to me is the husband of the other Carrie on my team who's expecting a baby. She happened to be sick yesterday (didn't know about the surprise, of course), so her husband got to be her stand-in. I wish you could see how many awesome gifts we got, but the pictures don't really do it justice. Daddy was blown away when I showed him last night. He just kept saying, "Where are we going to put all of this? What about after Saturday? We're not going to have any room!!!" Yes, we will. We planned for room. Poor Daddy.
