Tying it all together: Sex, Dress & MS

The big day is near! Thursday we find out the sex as long as the baby cooperates! Probably the only time I will want this baby to spread its legs open (especially if it’s a girl)! Modesty!!! Haha! :) I have been counting down the days for the past 4 weeks and it seriously cannot come fast enough.

My parents, sister and her fiancé came up last weekend to visit and dress shop for Kara. It was a success! She actually ended up buying the 2nd dress she tried on. (Although she tried on probably close to 20 more after it.) But she looks stunning in it and really looked great in almost every dress she tried on. I thought we were going to have a problem with her selecting one since they were all so beautiful on her! :) Here is a picture of the dress she chose (Madison by Maggie Sottero). Perfect!

She is doing a peacock feather color scheme so it will be lots of vibrant blues, greens and purple accents. It will be gorgeous! As of now she is thinking the bridesmaids will be wearing a Kelly green color that we found at David’s bridal and we can all select whatever style we like best as long as it’s in that color. I love the green so I’m looking forward to picking out my dress. Although I have no idea what size I will be wearing 6 months after having a baby. Hopefully I’ll be back to my normal size (or at least really close to it). And hopefully my bazookas will be back in control. They are getting crazy. And since they are sore they are no fun. As Wade put it "they are like a closed amusement park." Nice analogy there hun. :)

I’m up about 8 pounds which is amazing since I am hungry NON-STOP and my mom even said how surprised she was at how big my belly has gotten. But it must be all baby b/c I haven’t gained all that much and my ass still fits in my jeans. Thank the baby Jeebus. I feel the little nugget kicking away pretty much every day now in little spurts. It’s a great feeling!

Other than that there isn’t much new in our household. I’m just living for Thursday! Our appointment is at 1:30 and then after it we are going to go to Babies ‘R Us to start our registering process (which is really overwhelming if you ask me). I know nothing about babies and what we need. Yikes. Any suggestions?

Also, a HUGE thank you to those who have so graciously donated to my MS Walk!

Emily – So This Is My Gig
Paula – Insert My Blog Name Here
Matt – Mr. 5820
Kristin – BonBon Rose Girls

And there is still plenty of time between now and the walk so if you still want to please do! You guys are the greatest!!!

I’ll be sure to update ya’ll on Friday once we know if our babe is packin or lackin! Til then!

Xoxo~

That wedding dress is awesome!!

BTW I wore a bm's dress from David's last summer. It was a high shine cotton, strapless, and hit right above the knee. It was so cute and comfy, and it even had pockets. Best bm's dress I've ever had!! Try it on if the still have it and have it in green. Also you could totally hide any left over baby blub in it.

That truly is a perfect analogy for your sore bazookas, you're right. It's a waste, really.
