Life in the Fat Lane

As the name so appropriately states, we are definitely livin’ life in the fat lane, although, hopefully, it is only temporary. While Tommy is on the downward climb, I am facing much the opposite problem. As my doctor so tactfully put it after looking down at my protruding belly, “Wow, your baby is growing REAL big, REAL fast!” At my last ultra sound, our little baby boy should have weighed in at 9 ounces, but he actually weighed 14! (for those of you with no grasp of measurement, that is slightly larger than a can of coke) Apparently, my child is choosing to take after his mommy and daddy in the skills of weight gain, and boy is he excelling. As much as I would love to share pictures with all of my posts, I would not love having a picture of my fat belly posted on the internet.
