Looking forward to: Todd has been out of town for work and comes home today! I had lived by myself for 3 years after grad school but now that I'm married, I have a much harder time being alone
Best moment of the week: Finally had a stranger ask if I was pregnant! I was actually really excited about this because it means I look pregnant even though when he asked how far along I was, he was surprised I was as far along as I am. He said he had a 7 week old baby at home so since his wife was just pregnant, he thought it looked like I had a baby bump and wasn't just needing to lose a few pounds. We also ordered the glider for the nursery.
You look so cute, Jen!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteLove that little bump! and Dr. Pepper!! The first time someone asked if I was pregnant, I was a bit taken back but actually being pregnant made it easier to hear. It was as if I wasn't prepared for anyone else to notice!
ReplyDeleteIt's so fun when someone first notices your pregnant! Slowing down was so hard for me- it took me awhile to adjust to it. I remember getting out of breath going up and downstairs and asking my doctor and she was like Nope you're find thats normal!
ReplyDeleteGlad all is going well and I enjoyed the pics from your vacation!
ReplyDeleteI still remember the first person to ask when I was due. It's such an exciting feeling. :) You look great! :)
