Since mid February when this picture was taken Bret has lost over 25 pounds. For reals. Meanwhile, I have gained that much (ok, maybe more....) since then in pregnancy weight. It's as if our bodies inversely grew and shrunk simultaneously. Granted, we live in different countries right now so I can't blame him too much for not gaining any sympathy weight, but come on! I'm proud of him for setting a goal and achieving it and everything, but it's sure not helping my self esteem.

so much for sympathy weight

Wow. Judging from that picture, he didn't need to lose 25 pounds, but maybe the dark shirt was hiding some curves? I don't know. Don't worry about the weight gain, you look cute no matter what. Plus, you know, a lot of it is fluids and breast milk and placenta and baby. In reality you've probably only gained like one pound.
In other news, I noticed that you wrote on Lisa Udall Erekson's wall on Facebook. She's one of my high school friends. I didn't know you guys were cousins. Small world, huh?
Sweet Laura! You look beautiful! And it's all for a good cause. Hang in there. You are loved!
I love this and I totally feel you! I thought I was going to pee my pants and cry at the same time when brent tried on my maternity shorts and they fit with room to spare.
