Hot Dog Fingers

There are few body parts I have that I really like...my ears, my collar bone and my fingers.

Collar bone - 2 years ago when we were in a car accident, it mess up my collar bone, so that's shot.

My fingers - Ever since I was 7 months prego with Baby O, I've had hot dog fingers. You know, fingers that are like big fat sausages and don't get skinny towards the end of the finger...just big and chunky. They are huge! When I was voting tonight, I pushed the wrong button because my fingers are so big.

I don't even wear my wedding ring anymore because it doesn't fit...not even my fake wedding ring, that is extra big, fits.

Hope nothing happens to my ears.

ps...I have great nails ever since I've had Baby O.

When people ask you if you are pregnant...and you're not.

About 2 months ago while I was still on maternity leave, I decided to be adventurous and take Baby O out for a walk in my Moby Wrap. We walked only about 4 houses away, when a neighbor who is always holed up in her house was outside. Whenever I saw her before, she would always run away and hide in her house . . . but not this time.

I started talking to her and she asked how old Baby O was . . . I said that he was 2 months (this is key to know this). We talked more about random things. Then . . . she asked me it . . . wait, I don't think she asked me, rather said matter of factly . . . "So you're pregnant."

Me, in shock, said something to the fact, that "no, I wasn't, but I am hoping to have more kids soon, blah, blah, blah." I sort of chuckled and said something like, "still tryin to lose the baby weight and this extra stomach weight was hard to get rid of". (It really is hard to get rid of, my body is so not the same as before Baby O.)

I left shortly after that and started thinking, "wait, she thought I was pregnant? I have a 2 month old baby and pretty much that is impossible to be pregnant enough again to be showing."

What was she thinking?

Speaking of people asking if you are pregnant, I've got a great story for another time about my mom asking someone if she is pregnant...another time.

Lesson learned, never, ever, ever ask someone if they are pregnant, even if they are 9 months pregnant. Speaking of people asking if you are pregnant at 9 months, I have another great story about someone I lived with who was 9 months pregnant and people kept asking her that...and she would say no. Another time, another story.
