The Bathing Suit

Well, it has come down to it, the much dreaded thing had to happen. Yup I had to get a bathing suit. There just wasn't any way around it. I really don't mind my huge pregnant body, I just figure it is for nine months than I can get back to my really skinny self (hee, hee). I do draw the line though with prancing this body around in a bathing suit. I had to give in and on Monday the kids and I went to motherhood and tried on suits. It was really helpful to have my daughter in there being really honest on how they looked. Here are just a few of the comments she said, "Wow, mom your belly sure is getting big, I'm not sure that one covers enough, and my favorite line of all was, mom I'm sorry that your legs are getting so chubby." I had no idea she even knew the word chubby, let alone had the idea to say it to her pregnant mother. She had no idea that these words were slowly bringing my cofindence level down. After all was said and done and we decided on the perfect suit she made sure to tell me how beautiful I looked.
The torture is over and the bathing suit is bought. All I need now is the tan to go with it.

You so know a tan will make you feel better in whatever you are wearing. I can't wait to see it when you get home....your tan that is :)

Oh, but pregnant women are like teenagers, they look good in everything. You flaunt that beautiful life-sustaining body with pride. Have a great time and don't forget the sunscreen!

Someday Morgan will be pregnant and fortunately you have documented these wonderful words of encouragement she has lavished upon you! Hmmm...I wonder how fun that could be? : ) You just keep incubating and everything will work out just fine! You are one of the most beautiful people I know! Enjoy the sunshine!

Hi! I'm simply amazed that you went shopping with both kids and went into fitting rooms with them. That means you are a super mom. I don't think I've ever attempted that feat with a 2 year old before.

Hee Hee Sharon said incubating.
Umm yeah I haven't worn a swimsuit in like 75 pounds (aka almost 4 years). Props to you Miss bathing suit wearer. Girl or Boy? When do we find out?
