During the fall, I always wish I can whip my phone out whenever I drive around and just take videos of all the beautiful trees that are all over this lovely Connecticut town. But alas, phones are outlawed whilst driving here annnnnnnd I would also probably kill myself if I attempted driving/filming at the same time. I barely make it out alive just doing the driving part by itself most of the time. So, I snapped some shots at red lights today on the sly. And here's the thing. Every year when the leaves start to turn, I always get this association in my brain with the colors of the leaves and my favorite sugary snack. Yes. I am THAT obsessed with food. I think the early phases of fall leaves look EXACTLY like the Color by the Foot flavor or Fruit by the Foot. I will illustrate:

I have wanted to tell someone that for a long time! And now it is finally off my chest! I just felt like I couldn't do it properly without the visual. I feel better.
Now for the bump pictures. Let me just say that I put off taking bump pictures as lonnnnnng as possible. I don't usually like taking pictures of myself and I HATE having pictures taken of me when it's just me. I feel like an absolute dork. But since I started taking le bump pics (around 20 weeks?) it's really helped me focus on the fun and positive parts of pregnancy. So even though I worry that it makes me look like an attention ho, I think I'll be glad I documented this time of my life somewhere down the line. So there we go. Here I am at almost 26 weeks:
I wish she would just get here already!!!!! I am so jealous when I see everyone holding their newborns in their arms!! 14 weeks is an eternity away!!!!! Childbirth classes start in a couple weeks, can't wait to see what that will be like.....yikes. That could make for some interesting blogging.....
Anyhoo! Bradley and I are now going to take our change from my recently emptied piggy bank and buy us up some moobies!!! (movies.) Our temple plans for the evening got de-railed tonight when rain/traffic made getting to the city a way longer ordeal than time would allow. Boo. Ah well. Next week. Ttfn! Ta ta for now!
Hahaha I never thought of comparing leaves to fruit by the foot, but the resemblance is uncanny...
ReplyDeletei know right!!!! it's crazy!

ReplyDeleteI want to hold your baby too. But I guess you can hold her first.
