Seriously, time needs to slow down. I thought posting a “bump” update every 2 weeks sounded about right in the beginning. But 2 weeks feels like 2 days! I feel like my post at 24 weeks was just yesterday, and here I am already, writing agian at 26. I hope you are not sick of them! Baby is growing like a weed!
So, you hear about women saying that you wake up one day and just “pop”. Well, it’s kind of true. My “pop” happened this wednesday. I woke up, walked past the mirror, and then had to walk back again to stare at my belly. WHOW! Was I just noticing this now or did it really grow overnight? I think it just might have! I’ve realized as each day goes by and my waistband continues to expand, dressing has become a whole new challenge. I’m one to lean towards oversized slouchy sweaters and loose fit tanks and tees. But it’s not really working for me anymore. All of a sudden, I just feel frumpy. I now have a whole new strategy….to HIGHLIGHT instead of HIDE this belly of mine. I have found myself wearing more fitted tops and belted dresses that show it off a little more. And go figure, I went to baby GAP the other day and the woman working there asked me “if I had something cooking!?” AHHH, my first comment from a stranger! She may have been tipped off that I was in a baby store….in the infant section…with a rather protruding belly….but still! I’ll take it. “Yes. I am cooking up a baby girl. Due in August.”

I am kind of in love with my new shoes. They are gigantic, I know. My sister took one look at them and was like “What ARE those!? They are ridiculous!” Ridiculously amazing, you mean? ;) I love almost everything Jeffrey Campbell touches. I met him last year at a trade show in Vegas, and he was the coolest, most down to earth guy. Made me like his product even more. These Ford Lace-Up’s I bought from Need Supply. Which, if you have never visited their online store, go now! One of my all time fav’s. I have been eyeing these ILLESTEVA frames for a while now. Perfect summer sunnies, don’t you think?

And here is my usually baby bump update pic…big and bare!
I hope you all had a lovely weekend!
We spent most of it painting the nursery and shopping for a changing table. Or in my case, a vintage dresser that I will be converting into my changing table. fun fun fun fun! The process has begun.
You look great! I can’t believe the babe will be here in August!! :)
Wow Kelli, it has grown so much since the baby bump post for 24 weeks! Congratulations. :)
You and that beautiful baby bump are just LOVELY, Miss Kelli! Oh, how I love and look forward to these updates–thanks for sharing!! Keep ’em coming, girl. :)
morph (14)-“…thus, I cannot bid more on the house at issue.”Why? Do you intend to live in the house six months, then flip it?If you’re willing to walk away over 5K, you don’t really want to buy a house. Pull your offer and find a nice house to rent. Life could be worse.
Now I feel stupid. That’s cleared it up for me
I take these pills that I expect to make me happy and THEY TOTALLY MADE ME HAPPY! I’m not saying they did, but makes you think, doesn’t it?! Hmm?!
I want some ridiculous ideas for pictures to take at a mall. It’s my birthday soon and I want it to be crazy so that we can all remember the awkward things we took pictures of, and possibly videos as well!
Our vintage dresser is the best changing table!
you look soooo cute!!!! i love how you have little skinny arms/legs but an adorable bump! its the best way to be preggers. :)
