1. Something Fun: First of all is my Wii Fit. Yes, Nate gave me Wii Fit for Christmas and I love it. I don't love that it tells me I am overweight (duh, I'm 6 1/2 months pregnant), but other than that it is a really cool thing. I am excited to see what I can do once I don't have a huge belly and actually have some balance. There are some good balance exercises along with yoga, strengthening exercises, and aerobic stuff. Nate has been using it the past few nights and claims that he is actually sore. That is amazing since he is so fit. Anyways, that is my first thought.
2. Something cute: The second thing I wanted to share was a funny thing that Liam said today. We went to the distribution center today after dropping some stuff at the D.I. The boys saw the CTR rings so I bought them each one. Gavin explained to Liam that CTR stands for Choose The Right. I told them that the ring was to help them to remember to always choose the right. I thought I had done a pretty good job explaining CTR, but later on our drive home Liam said, "not choose the right, choose the left" :) I had a good laugh and then explained to him that we aren't choosing whether to go right or left, but CTR is about whether we are making correct choices or wrong choices. Don't you just love how little minds think?!
3. Something irritating: The last thought that I wanted to talk about or should I say vent about is the lack of modest, cute, maternity clothes. I am desperate for maternity clothes for church. Every Sunday I dread trying to figure out what I am going to wear. I have one black skirt that makes me look like I'm wearing a tent that I pretty much wear every week. It doesn't help that I also have to dress up once during the week for Relief Society Presidency meetings and visits. Nate didn't believe me about not being able to find a maternity skirt or dress, so we ventured out to the mall tonight and after much searching and trying on of maternity clothes I came home empty handed. Sure places have dresses and skirts, but sadly most of them are too short. So I am left with my one black skirt that screams I am pregnant. If there is anyone out there that knows a good place to find maternity dresses or skirts I would love some help!

I totally think Wii Fit should have settings so that when you are pregnant it doesn't tell you you are overweight. I just need a setting like that for when I'm bloated.
Try www.shabbyapple.com for dresses (maternity and modest).
I also need some help with skirts/dresses -- I found some super cute dresses at Motherhood Maternity, but by the time I added the belly, they were too short! (And they also did have a sort of tent-like quality to them). I have been able to wear a couple of my regular skirts to this point, but I can't find any longer skirts either! Aaahhh!!! I guess when they stop fitting, I'll go inactive...
I found mine when I was pRegnant at Target and JC PENNY also Macys. BUt it has been awile!
Maybe that's the norm for ever pregnant woman? I have two skirts. A black one just like yours and a non-maternity tan one mid-knee that I can't zip at all. I've been wearing long jackets so cover the lack of zipper. I keep thinking I look different by changing shirts. But I only have 2 that are dressy enough for church. Sorry, no suggestions. Let me know what you come up with. It was great to see all your other pictures. We've been getting over nasty colds/coughs/ear infections/pink eye so we've been housebound as well. Tis the season.
I love Target's maternity clothes. I found a cute black stretchy dress there and loved it! Of course, I don't know what they have right now, but I've always liked their selection.
