Milestones

Pregnancy is a wonderful thing. It is completely miraculous.

There comes a point though where you no longer count the time in weeks or even months but rather milestones.

I have currently moved past the everything I see, smell, taste, or touch makes me run to the bathroom to become one with the toilet.

I am still in the phase of raw meat is disgusting and chicken cut up into cubes is inedible though- just to make that clear.

I have entered into the every liquid that enters my body sends me running to the nearest bathroom moments later. This mostly happens at night when I should be sleeping.

Last night I hit a huge moment in my pregnancy.

I have been dreading this part quite honestly. See I sleep on my stomach. This bit of useless trivia only comes into play when another person is growing inside of said stomach.

I am now the proud owner of a brand new sleeping buddy.... my body pillow. I figured I might as well embrace this milestone though because it will last for the next 4 1/2 months.

The body pillow i chose is basic. The cover for it is so wonderful though. I am not really clear as to what animal pattern it is, picture what a cow print would look like if it was a chocolate milk cow instead of a regular milk cow. But it is velvety soft. I just want to rub it constantly.

I also found the cutest pink swing for baby girl. I didn't purchase it but I am definitely loving it. Then while in Target I found some sweet little outfits on the clearance rack. Summer clothes aren't out just yet but I have been able to find some sleepers and some larger size outfits for next fall.

My mom joked with me that the economic recession officially hit at the same time I stopped my shopping habit. My husband predicts the recession will slow down considerably once baby girl arrives.

It is so hard to resist all those sweet little clothes though. I mean they only let us dress them for such a short amount of time before they decide their style is jeans and a tee.
