Hi Belly!



"Hi, belly" is how Ella likes to greet most people's belly's! She doesn't get it. She thinks anyone- big or small- has a baby in their belly. Sometimes she grabs her own belly and says, "baby's kick'n me!" It's great! Jonas loves this baby and he's always very concerned if the baby has enough food and drink "in there" and if it has enough blankets to keep it warm "in there". He likes to feel the baby move and kick and he talks to the baby. He has wanted a baby girl the whole time and doesn't even want to hear about the possibility of a boy. We often say that God may give us a boy and we WILL love the baby even if it's a boy, but he just says, "no, it's a girl!" So, we'll see... any day now.

Wow you look very good for being 9 months pregnant. And I do mean that especially after we had our conversation last night about people's comments to pregnant women. Anyway, your belly looks to be straight out...you don't even look prego from the back, although I am sure you feel prego all over...but you look absolutely fabulous. Not real sure what the MLS means for all the houses you keep talking about. Remember there are some of us who have never ever talked the real estate lingo:):). I am looking forrward to seeing you when you come for a visit!!! Anne

FINALLY!!!!! The baby belly!
I must agree with Anne about the whole "not looking pregnant" from the back. You look AWESOME!!! I am praying for you and the new little Stamper. I cannot wait to see pics!

Love you muchly, my dear!

PS: Would Jason be interested in writing some senior high material, like maybe over the summer or something?

Thanks for the flattery friends! A pregnant lady can't get enough of that! Why do you think I took the pics in a black shirt? It's even a slinderizing color on a pregnant lady! This belly is different from my others- I'm sticking so far out I feel like my skin is going to pop! I have so many stretch marks in the front. It's gross!

Anne- I'll e-mail you the MLS info. I did feel really stupid at the start of this house search, but there is a different lingo to learn- you're right.

Janelle- thank you for your prayers and concern. God has really given you a big heart. I hope to be like that!

Erin- Jason's not against the idea! Let's talk. Summer is insanely busy for us with camps and missions trips every week.

Lookin' great Beth! Everyone is right about not being able to tell from the front and back pictures. I love the way the kids interact with the baby...mine do the same with ours. It's so funny. Can't wait to hear the news!

If it makes you feel any better, Moses was so happy to see you on line and he never even noticed the belly. He's going to make someone a great husband! You look beautiful. From one who knows, it is weird knowing I will never do that again. Try to enjoy what you can of it and keep all these memories! And, no, I am not sorry not to be doing it again. Just nostalgic!
