It Is Time To Acquiesce

I don't know why I am fighting moving into maternity clothes so much with this pregnancy. I suppose it has something to do with the fact that I didn't have to start wearing maternity clothes until I was closer to six months pregnant with La Luz. I am not quite five months pregnant and probably should have shifted to maternity clothes weeks ago, but I have resisted.

This morning was torture. I had to put on a suit since I was going to be spending the first part of the day in court. Of all of the suits I own there was just one that I could manage to get into. It was terribly uncomfortable, not zipped all the way, and inside of it I had the look of something along the lines of a stuffed sausage. The first thing I did when I got home was put on an outfit without a waistline. I think that is a good indication that it is time to bust out the paneled skirts and drawstring pants.

Here I am, not quite 5 months pregnant, baking cupcakes with La Luz:

Aunt Julie - just to set the record straight, I was in my scary, shiny pregnancy suit from Motherhood at about month 2 with my second baby!!!!! You look fan-tast, and actually there are some cute preg clothes at Old Navy, Gap and Tar-jay.

5 months, that is incredible! I was in maternity clothes at 8 weeks with Andrew. Give in and be comfortable! You look great!

Hey Jules...you do realize that everyone fits into maternity clothes quicker the second time around right? I think you look great and remember....enjoy it. For once you can lick all the frosting off the cupcakes and who the heck cares????? LOL.
Hope you are feeling well.
