19.5 week belly picturesNovember 17th, 2005 @ 7:52 am
I “worked from home” yesterday so that I could take Preston to the groomers. He was black listed after a previous “incident”. The King was able to get him back in their good graces. We still felt like one of us should stick around in case something happened. I am happy to report that nothing happened (except that he totally let them comb out all of his mats and bathe him). He looks like a whole new kitty. We figure he lost about 3 pounds in fur. Seriously he looks great. This was about the only picture I could get of him last night. He loves to sit on the toilet seat and watch me get ready. But he won’t do it for The King.
We finally found the camera last night. Living out of boxes is getting pretty old. We just need to find places to put everything. Going from a 3 bedroom/3 bathroom house to a 1 bedroom/1 bathroom apartment is hard, people.
So here is my belly, as of last night. Of course the belly grows in the evening and shrinks back in the morning. I am not sure why. Maybe it has to do with the tides. Or something.
Today is the big ultrasound. The King and I discussed finding out the gender (again) last night. He decided that we can find out, but he really doesn’t want to tell anyone. He just wants this whole pregnancy to be very private. I figure that when my Mom calls me tonight to find out, I’ll just have to tell her that they couldn’t tell. I don’t think she’ll buy that excuse, but she’s smart enough not to prod me into telling her.

Very cute - both you and the kitty!
Let us know how the sonogram goes!
By the way, my belly used to grow at night and shrink in the morning too!

You look great!
Love how your cat watches you get ready. Mine used to follow me around the house, but she’s pretty old at this point, so now I follow her around.
We didn’t find out the sex of either of our kids ahead of time. Made it easy to answer people who wanted to know if it was a boy or girl — we really didn’t know.

You’re all glowy :o) My cats follow me from room to room and hang in the bathroom too. They’re great company when my husband travels.

You look so great!! Very cute belly shot. I love the cat too–precious. One of our cats sits on the bathmat while I shower, and then tries to lick the water off my legs before I dry off. Cats…

My 3 lb persian has been black listed from so many groomers it’s really embarassing. And she has no claws. The highlight was when she bit a womans belly ring through her scrubs shirt and RIPPED IT OUT!

CUTE picture!
I brought my doggie to the doggie hairdresser yesterday and it took them two and a half hours to get rid of all the hair. He’s so beautiful now I can’t stop petting him. Awwww
