What the !?

A few weird things have happened in the past few weeks:
  1. During Easter brunch the Easter bunny was walking around from table to table giving little eggs to all of the kids, so I (the big kid that I am) stood with the bunny while my husband took a picture. Then the Easter bunny proceeded to lean over and start rubbing my belly with its big, furry paw. NO JOKE!! TWICE!! I knew that the time would come when a stranger would touch my stomach, but I never thought that it would be the EASTER BUNNY and that I wouldn't be able to see the face of the person doing it. Very strange!! I'm guessing that it had to be a woman in there...would a man touch a pregnant woman's stomach? I really don't know. Anyway, I thought that was kind of amusing while unsettling.
  2. One hilarious comment I got from one of our regulars at the library. Let me just preface this by saying she's so sweet but a bit flighty. She asked me when the baby was due and I said in July. Her reply was, "...THIS July?!" Seriously! I about lost it and murmered "Gosh, I HOPE so!!" It didn't even register as odd to her! The coworker next to me busted out laughing as soon as she walked out the door and said that I should have made a sarcastic comment about being an elephant, but I really don't know if she would have comprehended that either.
  3. Last week, the temperature got up to 80 degrees and I had my first experience with swelling. My feet were so swollen at work that one of my sandals popped off of my foot while I was walking! Calling my ever-so-understanding husband to bring me a new pair of shoes to wear paid off as I didn't have to resort walking around barefoot and pregnant. Oh, NOW I get it! I think it might be wise to invest in some cute flip-flops.

ehehehe... The Easter Bunny groped your belly... ehehehe...

Get used to it. For some unknown reason, pregnant bellies attract hands. I actually had a woman once lay her head on my stomach to hear the baby. I hardly knew her. Yick.

Hi. Long time, no see.

Cute post this time. Hope all goes well this July, but I'll stop in a few times before that.
