You girls look beautiful. I miss my belly, I'll admit it. Lacy, you look GORGEOUS - you could be a belly model.

I'd scare you with a pic of my belly. It looks like I have 2 teenagers in there, and it's not from pregnancy.

I love it! I always say I'll be afraid to tell people when I'm pregnant early on lest they say, "Oh, are you due next month?" I carry much of my excess weight in my belly and could rival many of you!

Anyway... beautiful bellies, ladies! Absolutely beautiful!
