Yesterday I went in to Boston to play with Logan when he got out of class.

Pregnancy is such a strange thing for me. Even after being so sick and watching my stomach get bigger and buying all the adorable baby clothes, it hasn't all totally registered yet.

My whole life I've seen women walking along, bellies all round and full and I've thought, "aw, she's going to have a sweet little baby. How fun!"
On the way to the bus yesterday I caught a glimpse of my reflection in some glass doors and saw my round belly and thought, "oh my gosh! I'M that girl now! People are seeing me the same way I used to look at those pregnant women!" So weird.

I was riding the subway later in the day and a girl saw me and my belly and caught my attention to ask if I wanted her seat. I was only going one more stop so I politely declined but it made me grin that I'm showing enough that someone would offer.

Boston is beautiful right now. The leaves are already changing colors, the weather is cool but not cold yet, and there are always so many things to see and do.

We stumbled upon a farmer's market while walking around the city yesterday and got some fresh raspberries and ate them in the park. Well, mostly I ate them. Logan was a little slow reaching for them but he might have gotten a few before they were all gone. so yummy  :)




We're starting a hypnobirthing class next week that will last through October, which I've mostly heard awesome things about, so we'll see how it goes. It will be interesting to see if it makes this whole having a baby thing seem more real, or if we'll just float through it in a surreal haze like we've sort of done for the last 5 months  :)
