(A double butt is when you have another butt made out of back fat on top of your usual butt.)  It&#8217;s impossible for me to imagine being able to exercise or tie my own shoes or shave my legs.  <\/p>\n<p>The leg shaving situation is so out of control, if you&#8217;re wondering, that I have regular nightmares where I&#8217;m sleeping and Tom sneaks a peak at my legs and passes out and hits his head and I can&#8217;t do CPR because I&#8217;m too fat to get out of bed and I am stuck just rolling back and forth like a dung beetle stuck on it&#8217;s back. <\/p>\n<p>I really thought I&#8217;d be a more darling pregnant lady.  I didn&#8217;t think it&#8217;d be all farts, burps, and f-words. <\/p>\n<p>As of tomorrow, we&#8217;ll have 36 more days until Baby Girl arrives.  I do sometimes worry about her health, and I frequently worry about Tom and my careers, and I worry non-stop about where we&#8217;ll live and when we&#8217;ll let her get a cell phone and what we&#8217;ll tell her about her brother and if I&#8217;ll be able to give her a sibling and if I&#8217;ll be a good mom and what my life will look like once she arrives.  But it&#8217;s a relief not to worry any more about her coming too soon.  And it&#8217;s a huge relief to know that we really did survive and that we really are going to be ok. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I feel like one of the McCrary twins these days.
