1st Stranger Comment

I started my after work routine like I do most everyday with a run/walk around the neighborhood. I was about 3 minutes into my run when a 12ish year old boy who was practicing his skateboard moves off the curb rubbed his belly and said, "Hi, how many months are you?" I stopped and looked at him. I wish I could have seen my face. I was completely shocked. Am I really far enough into my pregnancy and showing enough of this tiny 6" .5lb baby for a complete stranger to notice (a 12 year old boy at that!)? I guess at 18 1/2 weeks people start to notice. And no, it's not because I have been tossing back the ice cream and Twinkies. This baby and momma LOVE their sweets, but I have kept it under control. I finished my workout beaming with joy knowing that this baby is growing just like he/she is supposed to and I am the one doing it.
