Believe me as a stay-at-home mom, it would be more than easy to go with the sweats ensemble on a daily basis. In fact, it's a selection I've been going with a lot lately. Partially because it's cold and fleece pants and a cropped sweatshirt are warm. And partially because the first trimester of pregnancy has got to be the sleepiest time ever. All. day. long. Zombie-style. Even sleepier than the first months of having a newborn baby at home! At least then you have all those new mommy hormones going. Right now it's the new-baby-growing hormones and they're begging me to go back to bed.
I've participated in Lindsey's weekly What I Wore Wednesday post once before and realized just how crazy organized she and all the participants must be for being able to keep up with their photos each week. Heck, I can hardly remember if I've put on deodorant yet or not each morning! But I decided I'd give it another shot to encourage myself to get out of my early maternity clothing rut after my youngest brother stopped by for a visit and asked me if I had started wearing maternity clothes yet. Uh, no, punk! I haven't gained any weight! I suppose he couldn't tell under the sweats.
Anyway, I decided to attempt this again before the kids decided to pick up the stomach bug and donate it ever so kindly to me too. So I have three usable pictures. Instead of the six or seven I aimed for. Really, you don't want to see what I looked like on the other days of either the boys tossing their cookies or me tossing my cookies. But at least I tried! (I suppose it's all only payback for no morning sickness!?!)

| sweater: WalMart...loooong time ago. For like $5. tank: Kohls jeans: Target...they're the thin "trouser" kind. Unfortunately I've worn them too many times and they're now completely unflattering on me. socks: Old Navy. Surely I didn't wear just these all day!?! |

| I promised this looked cuter in the morning. And did include shoes. By 4pm when I remembered to take the pic it had turned into this. white T: Old Navy sweater: Old Navy. New. So comfy and I love it. Kinda makes me look like I'm trying when I really don't feel like it. Bet my mom would hate it. jeans: Old Navy. Need to be retired. Badly! |
Maybe I'll check back in as the belly gets bigger and I do start wearing maternity clothes! Still got a long way to go!
