If you don't have anything nice to say...

It has been interesting to watch Elise's reaction to my ever expanding belly. Mostly she is just excited to have a sibling and what she calls "her baby". However, these joyful emotions are often accompanied by remarks about my size-which she never fails to blurt out in the most public places.

1) In san francisco at a fancy health club pool she asks our friends Matt and Sacha: "Is that pool big enough to even fit my mommy?"

2) In her school parking lot: "Are you sure you can get out of the car? you might be too big."

3) a minute ago at Whole Foods (to the young gentleman behind us): "did you see my mommy here? isn't she gigantic?"

sigh.

Thanks:-) I don't think (I hope) I look that huge-it's just her reaction to my belly. She does not hold back when it comes to physical observations, for better or worse...
