Pregnancy Glow

Hi! I'm 19.5 weeks along today. *Almost* halfway done. Crazy!

I'm up 10lbs and feel great. I had to break down and buy some more maternity clothes. It's funny how much more comfortable they are. Ladies, don't keep squeezing into those tight pants. Buy the dresses, and mat jeans, and skirts. Trust me. 

My MIL and her co-worker keep thinking I've lost weight through this pregnancy. We laugh because it's so not true. It will especially not be true after this weekend because we are going to hit up the Wisconsin State Fair for the first time ever. A few years ago we saw a special on the Travel Channel and I've been dreaming of gorging on fair foods ever since. And naturally since this could very well be my only time going while pregnant, I'm going to indulge. Monday it will be back to gorging on the healthier foods that are a staple in my diet now, lol. I am a fruit monster lately. Bananas, apples, grapes, pluots, clementines, pineapples, melons, etc. Yum!

Other than that, I have been slacking on the regular walks. I did get out with a neighbor for a nice hour long walk this week so that was nice. I seem to do most of my walking in long spurts rather than little bits over multiple days. I think this will be my goal to work on the next few weeks. It's a great anxiety reliever and that is my only downside to pregnancy. 

Here is a bump pic from this last Wednesday. I've been told that I am glowing. I asked if that meant I was sweaty ;) But I think there is something to it. I have honestly never felt happier in my life. I love being pregnant. Absolutely love. I love my bunny bump!!!
