Since I happened to be sitting next to Gwen while she opened her gifts Christmas morning, I ended up in a lot of the pictures.
In many of them, I am making incomprehensible faces.

In some of them, I am doing things with my hands that I simply cannot explain.
And in one of them, I appear to be boxing an invisible opponent.

(I mentioned this to my best friend, who told me he has not ever seen a picture of me and thought I looked fat. "Try to see it from my perspective," I urged him. "EVERY picture I see of me, I think, ugh, I am so fat. To see a picture - let alone a whole GROUP of pictures - where I don't think that? It's almost disorienting.")
(Stay tuned for my New Year's Resolutions, which for the first time in EVER will not include the words "lose weight".)

Yay, Laura! That's awesome :) I seem to be having the opposite problem these days ;)
Hey Kim, there's a big difference between being pregnant and being fat! You are gorgeous! :-)
Laura, You look lovely in every photo I see of you but I am very pleased that you finally see it too.
I know I rarely comment on your blog, but I do like to peruse it now and then. But as I was reading this post, I'm thinking "Holy Cow she's skinny!" and then I was thrilled to see you thought so too :) Nice job!
Laura, you do not know me... I have been reading your blog since I was pregnant with my daughter... I have been thinking about commenting for weeks that you look amazing in all your pictures; but, did not want you to think I was a creep. So, not only do you look "not fat", I would say that you look great! Happy New Year!
