Week 8 and sub freezing temperatures

So our little Suzi-Q is into her 8th week of pregnancy and all is well! She has had zero morning sickness and so far she has had no mood swings...well today she was a crabby-McCrabberson but I think that has to do with me being a little baby (I'm sick, and have been acting like the world should revolve around me during my time of need) and Suz will be flying off to San Fransisco at 6am tomorrow, so it might not be the pregnancy. The good news is that this is her final trip! Starting off next year she will be doing inside sales at EF and will get to actually spend her time here in Denver.

So first off I will post up the week 8 shots of the belly. Take note that Suz stayed clear of salty food this week (claiming last week's picture was TERRIBLE!) and went to a pilaties class so her stomach is looking pretty ripped if you ask me...I think I will be going to the next pilaties class with her just so my keg of a belly will start to look like hers...after all she is pregnant, not me for God's sake.



Oh so we also put up a little diagram of what Mini Meli would look like if Suz had swallowed a hi-res camera and some how made its way into Mini Meli's home. It's off to the left, below the 'about us' section. We have decided it looks like a small balooga whale, with little feet and bazooka attached to its stomach. Your descriptions are welcome, what do you guys think?

Parting words here, Denver just pulled a 'typical Denver' weather move. It was mid to high 50's for about 5 days and today we woke up to 1 degree. Yeah, that's 31 degree's below freezing and with the windchill it was -22 and I believe it, we had to shovel snow this morning. My face instantly froze and I couldn't even cry from the pain fearing my eyeballs would burst. Cutting this short, we slow cooked chili and it's ready to munched on! Next week we will be updating you all from the road, Santa Fe, NM, to be exact as we begin our Christmas/New Year trip to Kingman and Phoenix, AZ.

Mini Meli looks like what I like to call...a little "BaluPigPole". For those of you who are not familiar with this species...that's a cross between a Baluga Whale, Piggy and Tadpole. It is quickly identifiable by it's wide spread eyes (that's the tadpole characteristic), pink flesh (piggy characteristic) and unusually bulbus forehead (baluga whale quality). Oh yes, it has an oddly shaped "uniboob". In other words...it looks just like Leo. ;)

Dear lord...enjoy this little BaluPigPole while you can this week! Why? Because I previewed week 9 and 10...ALIEN INVASION!

Leo and Suzi Meli said...

Hey hey no need to peak ahead at future weeks! It will all be up here until Mini Meli decides it's time to grace the world with its presence!

we had a few inches of snow in Vegas...exciting! But the weather you guys describe in Denver sounds "painful" ...ouch!!!

I'm jealous of the stomach. I want that stomach! Mini Meli looks a little scary...almost looks like a bed mite.

It's kind of creepy when the umbilical cord is facing you & you can see into it...
