I felt my first real, honest to goodness kick today compared to the indecipherable movements I've been feeling so far. I was bending over to pick something up for DS and Wham! "Hey, Ma! You're squishing me, sit up!" Much excitement! So exciting! I got a couple of legit, hard k8cks last night. I'm pumped to real movement and not just flutters.

FYI Old Navy dresses are up to 40% off and you can get another 20% off with the code SWEET at checkout. I just bought 5 for $85. They are a mix of maternity and non-maternity, so we'll see how it goes when they arrive! Do you have problems with the length? I got a nice one and it fits great but way to long. I may need to bring it to a tailor.

I may need to bring it to a tailor. Because I'm 5'1", length is often an issue for me. I feel pretty good about the shorter dresses I bought, but I'm a little worried about the maxi. I don't get why they don't make petite maternity styles. They should be arriving within the week, so I can let you know how it goes. The S maxi I bought from Gap fits perfectly. I hope that since they are under the same parent company it will be the same situation with this one.

My leggings from destination maternity were way to long for a mid calf length that I have to just fold them up to where I want :/ I got a maxi last pregnancy from target and had great luck with the length FYI.

I bought some maternity shirts at Target. Solid color, basic shirt. Wearing them with leggings. They are great.

My insurance company denied special enteral formula for my kid because he is very underweight and eating poorly...but they pay for it if you are an adult. Bastards.

Wow am I ever sore! We walked all day for a kids festival and now my hips and pelvis are sore. I swear I had SPD last pregnancy and I'm sure it's starting again. Like I can barely walk and it just hurts. Hot bath didn't help. One more hour till I can feel ok with sending my kids to bed early.

Fellow shortie here, 5'2 though. I bought a maxi at Walmart, and put it in the dryer and it's a bit short on me now! Will wear anyway, no one looks at my feet, right? cdnfarmgirl, have you tried googling for prenatal stretches that might help? I have had success with my SI pain with doing cat/cows, childs pose, deep squats and a few other things I found at some link. you, emotional rollercoaster! I'm sorry they won't pay for your child's formula, it's disgusting how screwed up these companies are. But yay $2 taco bowls! And I don't know what's scarier, how long we have until we can have a beer or how short we have until we can have a beer!

I am cranky that in Canada, the 40% off sale does not include plus size or maternity, so this sale is useless to me. I guess when they say "all dresses" they mean "if you're the size society says you should be".

MH has barely seen DD the last few weeks because of his show and he asked me to send him a photo today. She now just yells "cheese" when I try to take a picture and it of course never ends up with a nice photo, just mouth-wide-open, so tonight I asked her to smile.
*poof*
LOL forever.

The maternity dresses were on sale, but definitely not as discounted as most of the regular sizes. How much more fabric does it take to add some ruching around the middle? Cut us a break, we only need them for a few months!

Ds is either going to be so happy or completely traumatized that I cut up Lightening McQueen.

I just realized I never checked in here today. DD really tried to show me who is boss last night by repeatedly trying to starfish the bed, but we ended up sleeping okay mostly.
We had a nice day! Went grocery shopping and visited my dad at his office so he could show her off to his colleagues. We all napped, and then we went out to Thai for dinner.
Tomorrow is my sister's baby shower. Should be fun!

My dad is still putting DD to bed. We were an hour late starting because we finished watching the basketball game first. I hope she sleeps...

So remember that dress I ordered? Way to long for me, looked so stupid, and showed way to much boob for me. So that was a nope. So ordered this one, tell me what you guys this? It's not to long is it? I feel like it's really flowy at the bottom right after the bump, so it doesn't look as silly. The other one was tight everywhere lol. I actually like it, love the top bit. I've got a bump supporter on, helps suck in the love handles lol My collage app isn't working so excuse the 3 separate photos

We're finally getting several dry days in a row that coincide with a weekend, so H and I will be spending the weekend staining our deck. I hate painting/staining, but I can't wait to have it done so I could put my furniture out and enjoy it!

17w today and according to Ovia, the baby is the size of our PS3 controller. I told the kids and DS said, "No, that controller is too big for a baby! It needs a tiny one in your tummy."

We're heading to my parents' for the weekend, and they know our anatomy scan was yesterday. I predict my mom will try to get the answer out of me at least 14 times. Here's Baby A's foot. ❤️
