Alicia & Kimmie

My best friend Kim and I are both pregnant. She's due September 13th and I'm due the 15th. It's super fun because we get to talk to each other about all the same things, same visits at the dr, same symptoms, same worries and excitements. Anyway we took the "Let's celebrate the last week of the 2nd Trimester Picture".

Also noting that I'm HUGE... or at least bigger than most women at my time. You know how some women get that "Pregnant Glow" and they are just blissfully full of baby... ya well I'm beastly full of baby. Luckily Michael is as sweet as peach pie, he always tells me how beautiful I look. He's such a good husband. Here's a better side view picture.

Vegas Babymoon!



Mike and I went to Vegas for a babymoon, something we read about that says you need to go on a trip before you have your baby to glorify your last moments of selfish aloneness. It was really fun though. As you can see in the picture above, we stayed at the Tropicana, not the classiest joint, but still on the strip. It turns out we went at the perfect time the week before was in the hundreds and the week after too. For the few days we were there it stayed within the 60-75 range, very nice weather. Though it got a little chilly by the pool. Though I did buy a super cute maternity swim suit that I don't quite fit into yet (though at the rate I'm growing I think I'll need a bigger one by the end). Mike had to rig it up in the back so you could see that I was wearing bottoms.
We actually didn't take too many pictures down there, but we did some fun things. We went to the IMAX as you can see in the above and below picture, the glasses are pretty cool, but they wouldn't let us keep them.

Mikey with our tickets to the the IMAX. We tried to go on the IMAX ride, but they wouldn't let us. No pregos allowed. We went to the Cirque de Soleil "O" and the performance was amazing. Very visually stimulating. We also got tickets to Blue Man Group, which is also a very stimulating busy show, nothing like we'd ever seen before.
