What to wear......???


So, I just wanted to write a little something about maternity clothes. I think I mentioned before about all the free clothes that I got from a friend. Those, short of a sweater maybe, will take me all the way through until January. Upon further thought, I really do hope I have warm enough clothes to wear. I have a feeling it's going to be k k k k k k KOLD. :)

I tried the rubber band trick, to no avail. It just wasn't comfortable at all. I wish I could draw how my belly is shaped, but it's not normal. I think it has to do with surgery over a year ago. Instead of roundish, it goes out in a pointed fashion. Weird. Anyway, I just discovered that I LOVE Levi's maternity jeans. The bottom of the legs are a little narrow, but I don't care.

Are there any favorite tricks or brands out there that you like?

Hey - I just saw on your friends list that you knew the Dawsons. How do you know them? They went to the same church as we did for a little while in VA.

I only had to buy a few tee shirts and summer short pants so far - and I actually got those from Target. But Target's maternity clothes are typically tight fitting. I like Motherhood Maternities clothes for a few reasons. The prices are reasonable. They don't have huge clearance sales, but the original price is, like I said, reasonable. They general fit normal too - and if anything, maybe run on the bigger size. I never had any tricks I did to my normal clothes, though with Luke it was nice because I had lost weight prior to becoming pregnant, so those clothes fit for a long time.
John knows the Dawsons from Germany.
Katie, I've been pretty happy with the Motherhood items that I've received. I do find myself wearing a lot of tank tops, though, because an over abundance of cleavage shows sometimes (not my thing) with the tops that I got.
I'm kind of dreading winter. I don't know how warm the clothes are.

I just wanted to mention that it's 9:52 and my husband went to the store to get bananas (it closes at 10:00) so that his girl won't get leg cramps. Isn't he wonderful?
