Our morning

Forever is composed of nows.
Emily Dickinson

sick day

The monster and I are sick.
Coughy, snotty, fevery...
(are those all words?)

I woke up before she did...
mostly because my fever broke and my hair was drenched in sweat.

Michael had brought me up some tylenol before he left for work.
He's on-call again - working until tomorrow.

I couldn't fall back asleep
So I got up and showered...

Thank goodness.
I am pretty sure I smelled.

Right now...
I am eating ketchup potato chips for breakfast.
the tissue box and the monsters of Sesame Street are my close friends.
Eva is still in her PJ's.
And I am wearing leggings.

Dear leggings...
I know we just met a few days ago, but I love you.

My normal jeans are getting uncomfortable.
My maternity clothes are all too big.

You fit, your so very comfy, and because I am pregnant...
no one can say a thing about what I wear.
Because that is just not very nice.

I bought my first pair on Friday...
at Bed, Bath & Beyond.

I know, a weird place to buy clothes right?
They were on clearance for $2.99.
I thought I would try them out.

Michael took Eva to breakfast and to play yesterday...
and I went shopping.
I bought three more pairs.

On an exciting note...
Michael can feel Deedle move.
Little tiny kicks.
Isn't that fun?

ok...first, feel better. Yay for the leggings and little deedle kicking so strongly! And love the quote. Now, the confession. I'm afraid that what I will take away from this post is: KETCHUP POTATO CHIPS!!!??! I never knew. I will be on the look out cause they sound amazing! But, really...feel better!

Hope you feel better! I just might have to look into leggings... they sound lovely to wear right now. I need a solution on shirts... my normal ones are too short and maternity ones are too baggy. Sigh...

Kelly said...

Feel better my dear :( Love those leggings!

Marti said...

Hope you get to feeling better fast. Must be something to your breakfast diet. Comfort can't be overrated whether you are pregnant or not.

Unknown said...
