After a recent conversation with my older brother, I discovered that I am surprisingly large. According to him, my mom was MUCH smaller than I am when she was pregnant. Fighting back tears, given the emotional roller coaster of my current state, I decided rather than take offense, I would simply prove him wrong. Okay, actually, I didn't feel like crying and wasn't the least bit offended, but I did find it funny and thought it'd be nice to take him up on his "challenge" and see just how big my own mother was when she was pregnant.
This quest proved only one thing... My mother is gorgeous! She even makes pregnancy look like pages from a model's portfolio. So... whether or not she truly managed the weight of pregnancy better than I am, it's just fun to see what she looked like when she was starting her family.
