why "if I can't see it, nobody else can" does not apply to pregnant women and body hair

...because people have eyes.

really, that's the reason.

also - my husband should be sainted. I couldn't tell you under oath how long it's been since I last shaved above the knee... at least 6 months - probably longer. but thanks to my sweet friend Laura - I had some time to actually shower BY MYSELF, and I got to take longer than 4 minutes to do it! MIRACLE!

all this shaving and showering was prompted by the fact that we have L's first swim lesson today! I am super excited! will do my best to post an additional update tonight.
