Pop goes the Weasel

Dammit. I've popped. I thought I would have a few more weeks of half getting by with 'looking' pregnant. Now I just get the "wow, you popped overnight" statement. Well, I suppose it is true, but still, just not something I am loving hearing at the moment. Check back with me in a few more weeks and I'll probably be proudly sporting the baby bump.

Part of my distaste is my ever expanding waistline and the lack of clothes that I now fit into. Of course I have options from when Lilly was born, but to be honest, I just don't like most of them. And, have you ever shopping for maternity clothes? Options are limited. I. Mean. Limited. When I finally find something I like and it is reasonably priced, my size isn't available. If there are any entrepenuers out there I suggest you get into this business. And for the love of God, please make clothes that normal people can afford. I might (or may) buy designer jeans when I am not pregnant, but I sure as hell ain't gonna spend $200 on jeans that I will wear for 4 months.

And another thing. I am not glowing. That's called a greasy oil face and it is giving me acne and I dislike it very much. I had backne with Lil. This one is giving it to be on my chin and neck. Hmmm... that's about the only difference I have seen between the two pregnancies. Signs of a boy maybe???

I know the goal was to have a picture for this week, but hey, I can't make all my goals all the time. See the issue is that the second I get home I change into comfy clothes. Then I feel too frumpy to have a picture taken. Next week. Maybe.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Well, Happy Thanksgiving to me anyways... cause I am wearing my Turkey Day pants, aka, maternity pants. Surely a women invented these puppers. Men would not be insightful enough to have thought of jeans that feel like sweatpants. No, no. Men thought up things like prenatal vitamins (that give you gut rot) and stirrups (not the pants, you know, those handy dandy feet holders at your lady doctor). Ah, the feeling of just being comfy. I don't care if my ass sags in them. I am wearing 'em and wearing 'em proud. 20 weeks down and 20 weeks to go.

Check out my kiddo... cute right? Gonna be a looker for sure :)










I need to take a pic of my preggo belly at some point. Maybe that's the goal for next week's post.

I'M BAACCCKKKK!!!

Back by request is the Blah, Blah, Blog!

In a fairytale world, I'd be a writer. Not the fictional, Harry Potter, kind of writer, but a writer about real life. My life. I really don't even care if no one reads what I write, I just think it would be fun to put thoughts and experiences on paper. Maybe someday.

That's part of what got me started on blogging again. A place for me to come and vent. If you don't like it, don't read it... and for cripes sake certainly don't tell me about it if you don't like it. And, yes, I will probably have misspellings and a million other grammatical errors. Don't point those out either or it's off with your head! Not really, but really. Also keep your trap shut about political views and such. I can't stand most of that bs. In turn, I will offer my thoughts on life and a view of how my life (and my family's lives) is going. I will try not to offer too much information, but I will warn that I may be vulgar and descriptive at times. No offense to those who dislike that, but hey, it's my blog, right. See the rule about not reading what you don't like :)

The other part that got me going again is this science project I have brewing in my uterus. Otherwise known as baby VB #2 or the bambino. Yes, I am pregnant. Sorry, I realized a week or so ago that I never made a formal announcement. Guess I figured those who need to know knew or had heard it through the grapevine. With Lilly, I blogged my entire pregnancy and it was fun to go back and re-read what we had gone through. Guess it would only be fair to do the same for this child.

So here are the details. Due on June 9th. That makes me 18.5 weeks along with 21.5 weeks to go. Yes, I am counting. Every month. Every week. Every day. Heck even every hour and minute. No, we are not finding out the sex. We like the surprises that God offers to us. Yes, Lilly knows that there is a baby in Mommy's tummy, but she also probably thinks there is one in her tummy too. She doesn't get it quite yet. All in due time. Get it? Due time???

Ok, enough thought for the day. More to come about this pregnancy in the near future. Goal = roughly one post per week until the kiddo arrives. I'm sure I will have enough time and thought to fullfill that goal, right??? Right???
