Capacity


I have HIT CAPACITY!!! 

Ouch Ouch Ouch. My dress is really digging into my sides, and its elastic...woh woh (you know like the bad buzzer in price is right).  This is NOT a good sign. I mean it is an extra small from Limited and its not exactly maternity, but it’s a simple black wrap dress except it has a band around the waist….which totally fit this morning at 7am but now is seriously painful and its only 12:30.  I have 5 more hours in the dress…what do I do?  Perhaps I could take some scissors and just poke a little hole in it and keep my arms down. Or just keep yanking on it and have everyone look at me like I’m crazy! UGH. Lesson learned, maternity clothes here I come.

The problem is I only have 1 pair of “weekend” maternity pants and 0 pairs of work pants. I don’t wear lots of work pants anyway, more skirts and dresses.  Must invest asap or I will be working from home in my robe...if it still fits….or Burr’s tshirts and soccer shorts. Even better. Hi Hunny, don’t I look pretty in these Arsenel shorts?

Mother’s Day was nice. Lee and Steve came to town on Friday and we cooked dinner and brunch. It was fun.  Then Sunday Burr and I attended church for 3 hours!! 1 hour of service than 2 hours of new membership classes, we were ready to go by the end!!! (And someone was hungry).  Then yesterday Burr gave me a big destination maternity bag full of fun pregnancy bath products. So sweet! I’m sure its not easy to walk into a maternity store as a guy and feel comfortable. I’m sure they saw him as “fresh bait.”  Well I love my new stuff! And for anyone saying I’m not a  Mom yet…listen up …I have not eaten a piece of raw sushi in 4 months, I haven’t had any poached eggs, or even slightly poached,  I have yet to drink a regular coffee, and I have not had a glass of wine (beer or vodka) in 4 months!!!  All I do is count how many servings of calcium I have had during the day and wonder if I am drinking enough water. So ZIP IT!  I have a MOM to our avocado (or that is what my app tells me).

Everyone keeps asking if I feel “flutters” or kicking, but not yet and I don’t think today will be the day since my dress is cutting off my circulation. Hopefully soon I will get to change out of these clothes and feel flutters! 

11 days till we find out if it’s a girl or a boy!!
