except at christmas, you don't have to go through labor to get your present

i'm thinking being pregnant is a lot like christmastime. there's the whole build-up and anticipation and preparation, decorating, all that kind of thing. everything has to be done in time for the big day. and what a whole lot of stress too. how are we going to find the money for all of this?

and then the big day comes, and you have presents to play with afterwards. except i generally don't pack on 15 pounds (so far) in anticipation of christmas, and i don't get 6 weeks paid time off from work afterwards to recover (though Lord knows sometimes it feels like i could use it!).

we are at: 26 weeks 1 day.
