a sweat affair to remember

I'm 100% in love with sweat pants these days. I won't say that I've stooped so low as to wear them to work (except for Pajama Day a few weeks ago during Spirit Week), but I have considered purchasing this t-shirt for Ben. Poor guy rarely sees me in anything but sweats. And pretty soon, my students may be seeing me sporting the frumpy sweat pant look.

Right after Christmas, I made a purchase that no one could have warned me would change my life. At least my pregnant life. I bought a pair of simple, navy blue, non-maternity sweat pants from Old Navy. I've been wearing them nearly every night from the time I get home from work to when I get ready the next morning. I seriously dread having to take these heavenly pants off and daydream about putting them on.

I foresee these sweatpants & I having a long and glorious relationship, though I will probably retire them as the weather gets warmer...and replace them with the shorts version!!

As a side note (which actually, if you think about it, goes hand in hand with my sweat pant affair)...
Had another doctor appointment today. I'm 33 weeks. Feeling great except for the whole feeling HUGE part. Gained a few more pounds, listened to a super cute heart beat (cutest one ever, as far as I'm concerned), discussed an "ideal" birthing plan, and realized yet again that I love my doctor.

My students are growing ever more intrigued by my expanding belly. Some recent endearing comments:
--"I am only helping you lift the folder crate because your pregnant and your belly might pop if you lift it."
--"It's so freaky to think that every time I see your belly there's a little alien type person inside."
--"How ya doing, Mrs. H? How's the little Mrs. or Mr. H doing?"
--"Do you think your stomach can get much bigger, Mrs. H?"
--"Is your belly wiggling on it's own just now or is the baby moving?"

Leave it to teenagers to be so perfectly honest.

(((I have a funny (kinda) story to post about soon, but am waiting for pictures. I promise it'll be worth your revisiting!!!!)))
