I feel quite large. My belly has really, REALLY, popped and I think I look quite "thick."
I don't know how it happened so fast.
And I've lost all sense of fashion. Nothing really fits, but I'll be a monkey's uncle if I have to go out and buy new maternity clothes for the last 2 months. That is ridiculous. I kind of want to though :). I saw this lady at Wal-Mart last weekend that had the biggest pregnant belly I have ever seen, and she was still rockin some super cute clothes! Very, very adorable looking with her hair all done awesome and cool earrings and fun outfit. I'm standing there with my hair in my messy bun (see below), no makeup, and I'm pretty sure I was sporting Ryan's t-shirt. I just drooped my head in shame and walked by, trying not to let my envy show.
How do some women do it? It is like pregnancy is the most natural thing in the world for them! They have no problem adjusting their sense of fashion to stuff for a belly. Maybe I could hire a personal stylist next time around! I should also get my hair done. By a professional. I have a bad habit of cutting and coloring my own hair. Some people might think, "That makes sense. You are a cosmetologist." I still shouldn't do it. It is like a dentist filling his own cavaties.
Okay. Enough delaying. I'm just going to post this picture and be done with it.
Here I am at 29 weeks. In non-maternity clothes, cause ya know, I just can't seem to adjust.
And here I showing off my sweet dance moves at 21 weeks. Just for fun. Look at how skinny my legs look in these pants! I heart my thighs in this picture (is that too much information??)! Heidi Klum just really knows how to design a good maternity skinny pant. But she should make them longer. I washed these after wearing them in this picture, and they got a bit shorter. Sad face.
Ahhh....I love the above picture. I know it is blurry, but it is still really fun and I look back and feel really good about myself:)
Now I just want to blab a little bit. These next items are going to be random and possibly have no correlation to each other. Just hang on for the ride!
- We had a yard sale and we sold our old recliner. I think the new owners will really enjoy it. Now we have room to buy a glider/rocker! yay!
- Our birthing class starts tomorrow night. Mom says these are very, very important if I even want to entertain the idea of not getting an epidural. Serious business right here. I'm very excited:)
- I've been trying really hard to make friends at church because I feel really isolated from our ward and I realize that it is my fault. My efforts have paid off! I had a new friend ask if I would tend her little boy while she spoke in Sacrament meeting in a couple weeks! Yay! No one has trusted me with their child before!
- The Primary President called before I left for church yesterday morning and asked if I wouldn't mind doing the sharing time for the junior and senior primaries. I already lead the singing time for both hours (aka-stand and sing by myself a lot), but I said sure. It turned out pretty good. I was exhausted from standing for the better part of 2 hours after church, but I'm glad they called me. I need to build up a bit of good karma for all the times I ask people to fill in for my singing time:)
- Ryan is going to be gone for 2 weeks this month on various scout camps. He left this morning for his first one. I hope everything goes okay for him. He has a pretty unique set of scouts and some might have a more difficult time than others. Keep your fingers crossed!
- Because of Ryan being gone to scout camps, I have a lot of free time in the evenings! I think I'm finally going to get caught up on my house cleaning and my netflix dvd's. I also might go through Ryan's clothes and throw out a few things. He has a couple pairs of pants with holes in the knees, butt and crotch, but he keeps them because, "they are my favorite pants!" He doesn't ever wear them though. For obvious reasons. I think it is time to rip off the band-aid.
- I'm really excited for my friend's baby shower this weekend. I still need to get her something fabulous. She is having a girl. Any good ideas?
That is probably all I should bore you with. I sometimes feel the need to share stuff I don't need to on this blog. Like the entire bulleted list above. I just like it though:) he he:)
Peace out!

Not "thick" at all, lady! Just cute pregnant girl all over the place, you look great!! And I'm pretty sure I'm going to need a pair of those skinny pants to attempt some good looking thighs on my next round of preggers...
Carolyn! You are WAY cute! I'm so glad I found your blog through Kelsie :) You just crack me up.
You could always cut up Ryan's "favorite" pants and make a quilt! I made one for Nick a while back out of his old pants and HE LOVES IT.
Love your belly! It's adorable!
