Last Trimester

Just wanted to pop in and say that I'm entering the home stretch with this pregnancy and all is well. I've been feeling huge, hot, hormonal...but happy trumps them all...happy that I am able to have children while so many close to me struggle with infertility, happy that all my test results indicate the baby is healthy, happy that I will experience raising a daughter... All the discomforts and petty complaints (I miss my clothes! And my ankles! And being able to sleep at night!) will be more then worth it. I just need to keep repeating that to myself for 10 more weeks.

Until October...

OOTD - Perilla Dress

I was so excited when I saw that Lisa was selling her Perilla Dress...stretchy jersey is a pregnant girls best friend! I was hopeful I'd be able to wear the dress for my uncle's 50th Birthday Party and luckily, it fit! Not everyone shared my enthusiasm though...my husband wanted to know why they would make maternity clothes with horizontal stripes. I explained that the dress was non-maternity, but it didn't make him feel any better about the pattern on my expanding frame. Oh well, did I mention that it fit? Because that is all that matters these days!

The Girliest

I have been so preoccupied with all things pink!!! Since I'm looking anything but cute in dresses these days (my husband actually said "Yeah, you don't want to wear that" when I came down in outfit #1 for church yesterday, lol) I thought I would at least check in and say that I've found plenty of other shopping outlets for the time being ;)

In addition to tons of cute outfits, I've also found about a million things on Etsy that my little lady will not be able to live without.

Plus, I've been busily planning her nursery in my mind....

So that's where my mind (and the contents of our bank account) are at right now! I can't say that I'm feeling particuarily photogenic at the moment, but I'll try to wear something cute soon and check in with an outfit or two. Thanks for all the sweet emails and checking in with me!

*P.S. - I am having the absolute worst, most frustrating time trying to comment with Disqus!!! If your blog uses Disqus for the comments and I have been mum for awhile, please know this is why - I can't figure it out???

OOTD - I made the team

Team PINK!!!!

OOTD - Pond Reflections Dress

I was so happy when the Pond Reflection Dress finally went on sale at Anthro last week. I was even happier when it arrived and the reviews held true - this dress definitley has a forgiving waist with the drawstring closure. I am in my usual size 0 and I think I can wear this for another month or two. On the other hand, I have the Sing Sweetly Party Dress lined up for Easter Sunday and I'm saying my prayers that it will still zip next week ;)

OOTD - Minty

Whoohoo for 80 degree temps today! I switched out the shoes from my Polyvore set so that I could break out a pair of open toe sandals instead. I was dissapointed that the BP. Berty was sold out in my size a few weeks back, but happily Nordstrom restocked them and I was able to snap them up. They are very comfortable and true to size.

When I came downstairs my husband asked "Where are you going today? To the prom?" Haha! I have already hit up the grocery store, and tonight I'll take my oldest to baseball practice but nothing glamorous on the agenda ;)

OOTD - brought to you by EA Trade Market!

When Anthro's New Arrivals fail to impress, what is a girl to do? Find goodies from past seasons for sale on Roxy's Trade Market, of course ;) I already own this cardi in the dark grey, and the blouse in the white Blue Book version - so I knew I'd be thrilled with my purchases, and putting both pieces together was icing on the cake!

My older boys started baseball last week, so I'll need to stick with casual outfits when I'm out on the muddy fields. Anthropologie Roaming Frills Cardi
