Despite the cloudy morning, I had a wonderful time meeting up with some fellow nesties: Amy4773 (thanks for organizing!), MauiWedding08 (Robbie), MsIH (Tara), SanHawaii08 (Sandra), EClaire71 (Beth), SimpsonOhana07 (Kriss). What an amazing and funny group of women, and definitely not 'imaginary'!.
I think nearly every one of us brought cameras, so I'm sure there are other, better shots of folks, but I'll share what I took:
Robbie and her adorable and totally mellow son, Jack:

Kriss, Beth and Amy looking totally cute:

Kriss, Sandra, Beth, Amy and Tara with the ubiquitous "Public Market" sign - why they're making Sandra squat is kind of funny b/c she and I were the shortest ones!

The 3 pregnant ladies (whaaat?!?!?!
):

Everyone - sorry Kriss, I'm not sure what you're looking at!

Congrats!!!!
Looks like such a fun GTG!! You all look great!
Thanks, everyone, for the congrats. No, I hadn't posted earlier - this was my first 'coming out' as preggers. I figured I definitely couldn't hide it from Nesties in person.
Red Shoe Lisa - Beth and I were talking, and she said if you keep encouraging us to visit Australia, we may all just descend upon you!
I love Hawaii!

I just saw the pics on Fb too. Looked like you all had a great time (knottie/nestie gtgs are always fun anyway).
I thought I missed Kristianna's coming out post!! Congratulations! SO happy for you. See you on the "dark side" (the Bump).
Same here! I'm like "where did those chubby cheeks come from ?!?!". I asked MH if he noticed and he said he didn't - so I guess we're always our own worst critics. I think you look adorable!
it was so great to meet you (Tara, Kris, Amy, and Beth) and to see you again Sandra and Kristianna
Congrats again Kristianna
And thanks everyone for your sweet comments about Jack - I'm truly blessed. He loved his fun outing to Seattle I think.
I'm so glad it got nice out for your day of sightseeing! We went home and went to a big impromptu seafood feast at a friend's house on the Sound to celebrate the weather. Jack put his toes in the water but was NOT a fan, haha. He did like lounging in the grass and watching a little crab crawl on my arm though.
first, you look great!
but... I know how you feel, I'm still not really used to seeing my body carrying the extra baby weight that I probably should not have gained in the first place...
Awww, thank you
And to Kristianna as well.
It was so FUN to meet everyone in person, I really hope that huge GTG happens.
Robbi, the sun was SO appreciated when it came out in the early afternoon. I caught the pics you posted of Jack in his little baby flip flops, SOOO cute!!!
I love Hawaii!
