25 Weeks

Ok, here's the one I know you've been waiting for... Yes, I am actually wearing maternity pants. Getting to the point where its just not comfortable to wear my regualr pants anymore. When I dont stand up straight its very obvious that I'm pregnant, but its still not hard to hide while I'm at work, although its just kind of a pain.


Although I've got a couple pairs of maternity pants now, I've come to find - much to my frustration - that my swimmer's shoulders don't fit into maternity blouses. The shirts are way to tight on my shoulders and arms, and when I go up a size, i then look like I'm wearing a parachute. This has been the story of my life for quite some time, but at least with regular clothes, there are many more options and at least some brands cater to us broadbacked women. I guess maternity lines don't really think about this. How frustrating it is that not only is it SO hard to find anything that is actually cute, but on top of that, none of it fits.


I had a great time this past weekend with Suzanne in Key West! Can you tell how much more tan I look in my photos this week? (not really... ) This coming weekend I'm off to the opposite end of the spectrum: Boone, IA to visit my grandma! And then to Des Moines to do some training for work onsite at Wells Fargo. I'll try and keep everyone updated, but what can I say, I'm a busy girl.
