Week 18

Tucked away in a remote corner of the department store between plus size and baby wear is the maternity section. My sister and I went shopping for an Easter dress and hit three stores. Most of the maternity wear consisted of elastic-waist pants and dresses a little too short for modesty's sake. Don't think I walked away empty handed...  I found this cute maxi dress, which is my new best friend for the next 5 months... or more. 

 I'm 18 weeks and baby is the size of a mango! I love feeling baby move! I can't wait for my hubby to feel our little one.
