So those of you who know Travis somewhat well know he's a pretty silly guy deep down. Over the years he has had several nicknames for me (I won't list) but right after we got married it changed from Favorite Fiance to simply Wife. It has morphed again into: Big Tits McWife (shortened to BTM-dub on occasion). Isn't that hilarious?!? Anyway, most people would probably never notice the difference just to look at me, but I have to say that I most definitely can tell. I swear, half of the 5 lbs I dropped last summer came off my chest, so it's nice to think now that as I'm gaining weight it's going back someplace relatively favorable. But seriously, this is plenty. I never wanted to be more than a B-cup so it can stop now. Please.
Speaking of weight, I've gained the 3 lbs recommended for the first trimester, and I've still got 2-3 weeks to go. But what's a pound or two, right?:) The last two days at work I have been sitting at my desk, and either stood up for a while to ease the pressure on my waistband, or even - yes, already - unbuttoned the top button for relief. There has to be somebody who has marketed waistband extenders for the newly pregnant, so maybe this afternoon I'll do some online searching to see what's out there that I can copy homemade.
It's a beautiful day in Iowa today! It was warm enough for me to walk/jog 3 miles in a sweatshirt and sweatpants, and it felt GOOD to get out and do that. I'd say 2/3 of our snow is gone, and it smells like spring outside. :) Trav and I did some housecleaning this morning so it feels good to relax for a bit in a clean, relatively tidy house. And, it's almost time for March Madness, which I inexplicably and unabashedly love. Tonight, we go out with friends to celebrate a birthday. I have ended this week with a much better attitude than it started. Thanks, Friends, for thinking of me from a distance!
