Explanations

So the creepy spinning, giggling baby I referred to has since been removed from my blog. It was a little countdown icon that showed a little baby bobbing along as if it were in my belly. The icon was supposed to look like the back of a digital camera, and it had little buttons. One turned a light on, one played a heartbeat, and another would bounce the baby and make it giggle. It wasn't a creepy, goblin-like giggle, but it was still pretty weird. And then I noticed that as I left my blog page open, the baby would bob faster and faster. After a few minutes, I'd turn back to my blog, and the little baby was spinning. It kind of freaked me out.
The original reason I'd put this icon on my blog was because I hadn't seen it on anyone else's, and I wanted to be different. Now I realize that no one had put it on their blog for good reason. Creepy!
Now for my new little countdown icon: isn't it cute?! I don't think I'm having triplets. There is no indication that I have anything but one small person growing inside of me. However, aren't the three little peas in a pod SO CUTE?!?!?!
To summarize: I am not having triplets. However, three peas in a pod were impossible to resist!
Also an update: I'm feeling much better these days. My body likes to practice its gag reflex, but besides those times, I've been feeling pretty well since about Monday. My lower back hurts, and part of me would love to blame it simply on being pregnant. However, I have done almost zero exercise since I've been feeling crappy (translation: actually since it's been cold, which was the end of October), and part of me knows that if I actually got off my butt and exercised occasionally, I would probably feel much better. Let's see if that's any motivation, though. :)

I hate to break it to u... but u must be pregnant. I guess those are cute but certainly nothing to gush over. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad u think its cute!

I don't like those baby countdown things with the baby spinning around cuz who wants to see a naked fetus? Not me!

glad you cleared up that mystery! I like the peas in the pod thingy too, and for a moment when I first saw it I wondered if I had missed a triplet announcement. Glad for you that its just one human you'll be pushing out. Good luck with that :)

Holy Cow! I finally get around to checking my blogs after vacation (even though there are still suit cases and laundry on the living room floor) and you're pregnant! Congratulations! I hope all goes well.

When I was pregnant there was NOOOOO motivation for me to exercise---ever! Now that I am not pregnant (and Hunter is 9 months old) there still isnt...sigh
