Half Way There!

Time seems to be whizzing past! I can't believe it, but I've already crossed the half way mark, and no more hiding the fact that li'l Adobe is growing inside me :) And finally, after the nauseous 3 and something months, my appetite has started improving, and the numbers on the scale a showing a positive trend as well (Remember, positive trend here implies weight gain! :) ).

Interesting how shopping (or atleast trying to) in your favorite store brings you back to the reality of the present. I was just about 18 weeks along then, and my feet just about becoming invisible. There were really cute skirts (some wintery looking, some sexy) that were on sale as well. Now, I couldn't let go off those super deals, could I? I decided to try them on, I thought I could easily fit into them if I wear them a bit low. Surprise! Surprise! The two sides of the zipper/hooks were miles apart. One of those was a petite size, so I figured going up a size should be absolutely OK. I actually tried 2 bigger sizes, but all in vain. That's the day it hit me - no more walking into my favorite stores for the next 6-8 months! Surely, someone is real happy about that! No guesses there! But oh, I must mention that despite not fitting into any of the skirts, I still went ahead got a skirt and a top (perfect for parties) for an amazingly low price -- I shall get into it once Adobe is out and my tummy is back to it's original size!

While on the subject, curious about what's in and what's not? Well, stretch mark creams are IN now! Totally! Not to mention maternity clothes...speaking of which, we need some better designers out there. Wish Express would sell maternity clothes...I'm sure they'll never run out of business if they do! I feel like an old lady every time I slip into one of my M. jeans. They are so shapeless - "mooli" pants. I need all the support I can get to espouse the new style, so to speak!

I could go on, but it's not going to make any difference. So I might as well digress here :) We're off to Seattle for a "White Christmas"!! Happy Holidays!

Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year!

See you back in 2009, the Year of Adobe...
