I was giving Libby her lunch in the back of our condo when I heard a car horn stuck in a long beep. This is nothing unusual in urban life, so I didn't even pause. It was only Martin's cry of "Holy @#$!" that gave me pause. I looked down our hallway to see him silhouetted against our sunroom windows. "Is that snow?" I asked, seeing the gray, gray sky and the flakes raining down. No, it wasn't snow. It was the ash and smoke of this:
The truly sad part is that--in her short life--this is the second car arson (as this clearly was) right outside our Libby's door. Classy, classy, classy. I truly do love living in the city, but this is not really part of the experience that I enjoy--or enjoy subjecting my kids to.
Speaking of kids plural, I haven't posted a single belly shot this pregnancy, and I'm down to only five (!!!!) or so weeks left. I know you've all been thinking, "Gee, I wish I could see a picture of Kerri's mountainous belly naked." Wish no more, my friends. Wish no more.
And now as a payoff to enduring the belly picture, here's Libby playing with a headband (she's great at putting it in herself, isn't she?) and Libby just plain being adorable.

Our Libby is growing up and what a pleasure it is watching her. She is ready for her new bother/sister so she can start teaching. The older sister. (or is it Mom?) The car thing was awful and an experience few of us have ever enjoyed. You go Libby. Everyone is anxious for that baby to get here. Looks to us like it is ready to come out. Love to all.

Oh boy. Car fire. Scary. I prefer to comment on the adorable pics of Libby and that you're only five weeks away. Five weeks! And I still forget you're pregnant every time I see you.
Holy cow. That car is scary. Was it YOUR car, or a car? Not that either is really ok, but I hope it wasn't yours. Look at that beautiful belly. I can't wait to meet baby 2!
You pack a lot in a post, Kerri. The photo of the burning car scares me way out here, your belly is gorgeous, and that last picture of Libby just got a big smooch from Alejandro!
Who's hotter--Libby, your belly, or the car fire? :-) (Great pics of Libby--scary that the fire was so freakin' close!)
