23 Weeks.

And counting.

This week, Baby G-let is coming out of her shell and making a permanent appearance. There is really no more hiding the belly these days, so I have stopped trying. And for those of you who are new to Pregnant Evie, I am NOT shy about rocking my pregnant body to the world. But until it actually LOOKS like a baby belly, it mostly just looks like you have developed a penchant for Doritos and cake and not working out.

Due to my three months straight of morning sickness, I did not develop that habit. No, I actually ate less. But your body goes into motherhood mode and slows down metabolism and stores almost everything you give it. I am only five feet tall, so there is no room to spread it around, and it does not seem to be relative to size. I still have a normal sized baby, and therefore, I will retain the same amount of fat as a woman who is 5'7". How neat for me!!!

Anyway, now that the belly sticks out, I don't look as plump anymore. Which is nice, because my clothing options have expanded from baggy everything to more fitted clothing.

I am starting to feel tired again, as I approach my third trimester. Today, I have the day off from work, but that means I have time to go to the grocery store, cook dinner, and do the massive quantities of laundry that is starting to take over my house. However, after folding one load and starting another, I had to sit down. So I made my grocery list. I am pretty sure that sent me over the edge because now I am just curled up in my chair with my pregnancy body pillow and I can't seem to move much more than these typing fingers.

I decided that amongst all this busy work we have had in our lives, and all the anxiety, that I would take my "I Need a Bigger Bra Money" reserved for Victoria's Secret and spend only $4.99 of it on a bigger bra at Ross (it's totally cute, too!) and use the rest for some adorable baby clothes for my lil nugget. Clue: Ross and Marshall's have super cute baby clothes.

The Little Lady has a nautical themed outfit, which I will accessorize with a headband and an anchor with flowers. Also procured is a pair of teeny footie pajamas that are blue, with red cherries all over it. Sigh...

Live in a drawer for all I care, just hurry up and get here so I can see you in that cherries onesie and squeeze your cheeks.
