The first week after my aunt found out I was having a baby she got three big bags full of clothes from a friend at work. I immediately started to wear the maternity jeans because they were more comfortable than regular ole jeans and I didn't have to undo buttons on the way to the potty. In the stash of clothes was this shirt. It makes me laugh!
And let me take a moment to discuss my hair! Ever since I found out I was preggo, it has grown in volume, not in length. It is the strangest thing. I have gone from volume-i-zing my hair to de-frizzing my hair. I just find it funny that even the texture of my hair has changed in the past 3 months.
Okay, back to the clothes.
My sweet cousin Paige loaned me her maternity wardrobe, two big plastic bins worth. Oh how grateful I am to you, P! I took a picture Saturday night while I was sorting through them because I just enjoyed seeing all the piles of clothes to last me through the whole nine months. Especially in light of the fact that my husband has been known to ask a pregnant friend, "Isn't one pair of pants enough to last the whole pregnancy?" (That was over a year ago and you can bet your bottom dollar I started praying this would not be his philosophy during my pregnancy)
I am grateful to have a closet that runneth over, thanks to the generosity of my aunt and cousin.
You girls ROCK!!!
And Mr. Budget, thanks you too! :)

Please tell me you are NOT wearing that shirt in public! Too funny!
I wore Paige's clothes, too! She rocks! Glad to know another cousin will get to look cute in them. I'm guessing that t-shirt wasn't Paige's, though. Or was it?
AND why wouldn't you think that shirt belonged to me??? LOL! You are so welcome Susan. I hope some of it isn't too worn, or stained, or stretched!!! 3 pregnancies with 2 different seasons, and many different starting sizes..... you should have enough to carry you through!
I am happy to celebrate with you! And remember...your mom borrowed my mom's. I love that.
I am just so glad that you get to write this kind of post! Thank you God for answers to long prayed prayers!!
I haven't checked in on blogs in months! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I just KNEW "it" was going to happen eventually! (I mean the pregnancy, not the "thing" leading to it!) I'm SO SO excited for you!!!
