my beach ball

Well, I wasn't going to do it, but the peer pressure got to me. Here the is the belly at the beach at 26 weeks. I'm pretty sure I cannot get any larger and I'm going to remain this size for the rest of my pregnancy (I wish!). 

20 wks and 26wks

barefoot and pregnant in the mill mountain kitchen

no no no, I wouldn't dare.  But I did work at Mill Mountain again over the weekend...wearing shoes. Last time I worked there I was also pregnant, but the baby-belly tucked in nicely behind my apron. This time, not so much. 

This hot chocolate and whipped cream tower was NOT for me. Really!

Customers REALLY don't know what to say when you wait on them pregnant AND with a cone head. This provided us with hours of entertainment :)

The Regulars comments varied from

- awww I remember when you just started working here. How old were you then?!

to 

- you're breaking my heart!

to

- you must be pretty bored in Ohio 

to 

- oh, uh, um, are you, uh, um, expecting?! 

My favorite?! Doug. The poor, unsuspecting regular who I see both at the gym and Mill Mountain... 3+  times/day every time I'm in Bburg. He came up to me and said, wow you're pregnant! Congratulations!! I scowled and said, WTF no I'm NOT! And then busted out laughing. I tried my hardest to keep it going, but just couldn't do it. Poor guy turned red with embarrassment, then purple with laughter. Made my day... and his. He came in the next day still laughing saying how I got him good :)
