Yay! I finally have a belly icon that's my actual belly! :)

Behind this cut tag, larger pix of my belly, plus some of the kimonos I bought for chickpea in Japan. Plus, you can click any picture to see the even bigger version. LOL! Am I a geek or *what*?

The uncropped version of the picture that became my new icon:



Another belly picture:



The first kimono is not actually a kimono but I forget the correct word for it. It's a two-piece thing where the top is a robe thingie and the bottom is a little pair of pants. The CD is of Japanese kids' music and was a gift, and is in the picture mostly for perspective.

This picture shows the two pieces separately:



And this picture shows how it would look when worn, with just the bottoms of the pants sticking out:



The second kimono is actually a kimono, and is for a slightly larger child:



Heh, I'm such a menace with my digital camera. Soon I shall torment you with even more pix! ;)

They were kind of pricey but I finally decided to buy them anyway, because, so cute!! And how many white chicks in the US can dress their babies in authentic Japanese kimonos? :)

Oooooh! So cute.

The clock is ticking here -- my sister-in-law is officially due on the 19th and is currently softening but 0% dialated. C'mon, Xander! I'm waiting! (And your mother is tired of being a beached whale, or so she says. *g*)

Yes, but they have cruelly hidden it from me!

Yay, she likes my belly! :)

Of course they had ALL kinds of adult-sized kimonos, but once I saw the little baby ones it was all over. *g* I figured, why buy one for myself, when will I ever wear it?...the baby, on the other hand, will wear it whenever I say. ;)

Hiya, hon. Lovely kimonos, lovelier belly. I've probably told you this before, but your pregnancy is really quite fun to keep up with. I feel like some distant but proud aunt. *g*

aww, thanks! :) This whole chronicling my pregnancy on LJ thing is totally feeding my exhibitionist streak, so it's nice to know I'm not totally boring people. ;) I figure if anyone REALLY doesn't want to read this stuff, they'll have figured out by now that they'd better unfriend me. ;)

What a sexy belly!! Yum! How many weeks along are you now? I think you're showing more than I was at the same time, but you're quite a bit thinner than me.

I'm coming up on 17 weeks. And it sure looks bigger in the pictures than it looks when I look at it from up here, or even in the mirror! I swear I'm not sticking it out farther on purpose! I look at the pix and go, "geez, no wonder my pants don't fit any more." :)

long-distance auntie says 'allo!

Before I knew what the icon was, before I saw the bigger version, it looked like buttocks. Very strange.
