Hello From Me Land

 I am an extremely shy person, Codie and my sis are my best friends and it can take Codie and I awhile to warm up to anyone in our lives, most of the time if someone new comes along they have to persist and insert themselves forcefully until we let them in and eventually feel comfortable with them. I also come off sounding very snotty and valley girl like when I talk in real life even though it is not my intention( I am not really like that, I just sound like that) and I have a very hard time carrying on a conversation and the pauses of silence are often misconstrued and make others feels uncomfortable. Thank you Barb and nurse Jan for never giving up.

 This isn't something new, I have always had a hard time letting others in. Before Codie I was quite content living on my own and being alone. I had a nick name "the ice queen" even Codie called me that lol but it didn't stop him from asking me out at least twice daily every day for a month before I said yes. I learned then that my impression of him was also wrong. I thought he was too young( he is alot younger), immature, cocky and mouthy when I first met him. He was actually all of those things LOL but I learned on our date that he was so much more than just the persona he gave off. With some people that sooo much more just shines through but  with others it may take time too see it. There persona may get in the way but once that layer is peeled back that sooo much more underneath can be really worth experiencing. I do find sadly amongst people that so many do judge a book by it's cover. I guess with this post I just wanted to poke my head out of the corner a little bit and give a hello from me land.
The ice queen
Oh there is me with some encouragement from Codie
These were taken with me at 13 weeks along, I am now 16 weeks but not much bigger yet. As you can see my age gave me a big wallop since you left me my everything. In every beat my heart whispers for you my baby, my beauty. Jack and Mummy forever.

Well HELLO THERE! haha...we both posted pictures today. Aren't you just too fabulous! I love seeing who I am talking to and connecting with and sending my love out to.
So funny...you are several weeks behind me but I am HUGE compared to you! haha...I guess that comes with getting pregnant 6 months after giving birth to my 2nd child. I am just smiling seeing your pictures! I love it.

You look great! Did you take a while to show very much with Jack, too?

I too am very shy and it is very hard for me to open up to others. In the profession I am in I must talk to people, make them feel comfortable, understand them and all the rest but I often struggle with that all because of my shyness. Many people assume (such as friends) I am just stuck-up when I am not. I still have a hard time opening up even to friends I have known forever. I've always been quite and by myself but others assume often I am depressed or as if my relationship with Matt is going down the drain when it isn't and I am not. Funny as I read this I was thinking of myself (: I like your hair, btw. Look forward to more pictures of you and your bump!

It took even longer to show with Jack. With this pregnancy I was showing very early and getting bigger than it slowed down. The skirt is also slimming lol.I am also as some say "pixie" tiny so I think that helps. I know by the end I'll look super super huge though and my boobs are already way bigger than they were before LOL

Michelle, you look fantastic. I hope that you are feeling well now that you're through that first trimester, and well on your way to baby in your arms! xoxo

I know how it is to be shy and get judged as being snobby. Chronically misunderstood, but the people who stick it out and get to know us over a period of time know that we are sensitive, loving souls.

You look gorgeous! And I love the red hair. xoxo

Michelle,

You look amazing. Pregnancy definately agrees with you. Even though totally wrong to do, It is often hard not to judge a book by its cover. I would have never thought of you as an "ice queen!" Not at all!

BellaSteph said...

I agree with Marisa you are much too cute to be an "ice queen" you look fantastic.

Hi Michelle,

Sorry I'm only getting to this now - I'm playing major catch up after the last few super-busy months. Looking forward to seeing how things are progressing!

Axx
