Oops...

I underestimate sometimes how far my stomach sticks out. Like the other day, I parked in a tight spot at the post office and realized I actually couldn't get out of the car because the door wouldn't open far enough. It happened one other time in a parking garage and I actually had to climb across the passenger seat and out the other side. (while other people watched... it was lovely)

And this morning, I was ironing my pants and actually somehow managed to burn my belly with the iron. Yeah. OW!

I encountered this the other day. I was trying to squeeze by the open car door while Brett got Laney out. I guess I forgot that my belly was there...cause I just KNEW that I should have fit through there.

Re: the belly blind spot...

When I was pregnant with Isaac I worked in a lab where I washed out glassware with bleach to end my experiments at the end of the day. To that end, all of my maternity shirts have a little white or otherwise discolored line from where the underside of my ginormous belly touched the lip of the sink while I did my dishes.

What a great excuse not to iron!

HAHAHAHA. I just did that today, too. Went to carry something and realized I had to carry it high or low, but not in front of me.

And dude, watch the iron!
