Shirt: dri duck

pants: paige denim

This was from a couple of weeks ago when Lee and I went all over College Station doing wedding Biz. We both wore Tech stuff to represent. Ha. Even though I didn't go to school there, Lee did..so I like to think I sorta did.

Here's something no one ever tells you about being pregnant...it's totally possible to outgrow maternity clothing.  Seriously, because who wants to buy new maternity clothing in their third trimester? NOT THIS GIRL! 

So in other news...

BAM! Here's another news flash.  I haven't worn any shoes other than Old Navy flip flops June.  I put these babies on for a quick pic and they didn't last a whole lot longer before my feet straight up swelled out of them.  My husband snapped this pic on the way to my final baby shower and is probably about as dressed up as I'll get for the rest of this pregnancy.  At 34 weeks...I'm sort of seeing a dim light at the end of the tunnel!

a pina

The end is finally in sight.  I'll be 32 weeks this Friday, and my estimated due date is about 6-8 weeks away...or less.  The baby is the size of a pineapple.  And that's with the leaves...and am I feeling it. I just got back from a trip to Dallas for work, but no more traveling for me for the rest of the summer. Just working on maternity leave lessons, getting the babies room ready, and working on my tan/keeping my fat feet up!

trying on the dress i wore to my shower this past weekend. it was a hit. woo-hoo.

thank you forever 21.

 how i am passing my time away.  and yes, i am wearing sunscreen.

 i found a $15 gift card someone gave me at christmas tucked away in a card.  what a treat!

 fun shirt from h&m.  pretty sure i can't wear it anymore and this was only two weeks ago. barely.

 i made lemon blueberry pancakes one morning after thinking about them for days on end.  totally worth the wait.

top: gap

jeans: nordstrom

i am really into this cocoon top.

i'm considering several more.

gap has a line called "pure" and the material

leah vee

top: j.crew outlet 

(i clearly have an addiction. it's called j.crew outlet.)

pants: anthropologie

shoes: sperry top sider

i adore my polka dot pants.

they are my one summer splurge.

i do struggle a bit when browsing my closet 

for a top to go with such fun pants.

my first instinct is to go neutral.

but i feel like that can get boring.

i am going to get more creative the next time i wear these.

to be continued....

I have been having problems with blogger/flickr so it has gotten me behind on posting.
In the latest news...
I'm done with work for the year.  I actually had the last week of school off because I attended a workshop in Albany, NY.  Not so sure I would recommend traveling halfway across the country at almost 7 months pregnant. The workshop was WELL worth it though.  Actually, I'm more like done with work until probably mid-October considering I am due the first week of school!
Some of the girls at work threw a casual diaper shower for my friend Lesley and I.  She is having a girl and six weeks ahead of me, so it is going to be fun watching the babies grow up together.
My husband and I are traveling to Dallas this weekend for our first baby shower.  I am so excited to get together with family and friends to celebrate the baby.

Lastly, I made it to the third trimester! The end is (sort of) in sight.  I have had some minor low BP issues combined with swelling, but other than that--I am glad not to be working and I can spend a lot of time resting.

26 week pic.  I know I am not looking that stylish, but I am on a week to week basis with my clothing, and if the shoe fits--wear it!
