My apologies for the lack of blog updates lately. I would like to blame it on tiredness or nausea but unfortunately, it’s just been pure laziness. Well, and the fact that I’ve been really busy at work and haven’t had time during the work day to blog. I do think that I am finally snapping out of the tiredness of the first trimester and am actually able to keep my eyes open past 9:00 – not much past but past 9:00 nonetheless.
Last Wednesday I made my announcement at work. I spent countless hours working on my special cookies and I think they turned out pretty cute (see photo) but you couldn’t pay me enough money to ever do these cookies again. They were SO MUCH WORK!! My mom even brought in a cookie cake that said “Grandma Linda” to share with her co-workers. Everyone seemed so excited for me so it was a really nice day! Of course a few people said they had their suspicions, most likely because I had been raiding said people’s candy jars on numerous occasions. I’m going to tell myself it’s not because I’ve been packing on the pounds although that is probably a more likely scenario.
This past weekend we went on our annual mother/daughters shopping trip to the Mall of America. I have to say I was quite a trooper the whole day – I think I could have out-shopped Lindsay even! ;) This was also my first foray into the world of maternity clothes. I had the best luck at Gap and H&M. I got the cutest jeans at the Gap and TONS of tops. I even got a pair of leggings to wear at some point during my quest to be a stylish pregnant chick! I still have lots more things I need to build my wardrobe but I at least got the essentials and am happy to report that my pants are no longer cutting off my circulation. I’m sure baby appreciates that too!!
Again, I will try to be better at updating my blog. It makes me happy that many of you are reading it and letting me know when I’m slacking! :)
