Adoption Belly

Confession: I have an "adoption belly"...

Is that normal? I'm not sure what's going on, but I have a belly sticking out to go along with the adoption paperwork we're completing. And I've had indigestion and general tiredness too. Is it normal to have pregnancy-like symptoms when you're adopting?!

I guess the culprit might be the lemon bars, the strawberries & cream pie, the strawberry muffins (somebody please make me stop drooling over everything on Pinterest!) but either way I feel like I'm baking/eating/gaining like I'm pregnant!

We sent off our agency application today and we have a home study date on the calendar for April-- oh my goodness this is really happening! 


We're coming, Lovebug...
