Randomness

I spent a frustrating morning at the mall trying to find some maternity jeans that fit.
Grrr. I know I shouldn't be complaining about this but
I really hate that my legs are so small, nothing fits!
Plus I'm super short so everything is like 3 inches too long.
So after 2 hours of shopping I am still without a cute pair of jeans.
But I did bring home this cute dress from Shade, it's comfy!

We came home and Emma helped me pick some grape tomatoes from our garden.
That thing is out of control, I've definitely learned what not to do for next year.
I love tomatoes! Yum, I like to put a little salt on them for a little snack.
I think Emma likes them too.
This is just a random picture of Emma from the other night.
I went in to check on her before I went to bed and this is how I found her.
She loves to play with her Barbies in bed before falling asleep.
I often hear her in there talking in her "Barbie" voice.
So cute!
Last week we went up the canyon with the Wrights and Hoopes.
Stephanie and I made some tin foil dinners- which turned out decent.
The kids had fun running around and enjoyed some chilly fall weather.
Here are Haven, Faith, and Emma checking out each others' shoes.
Cute picture of Haven and Emma.
Emma had school pictures done at her preschool last week.
I went and tried to make sure she'd look cute in them,
but I have a feeling they won't turn out.
So, after school we came home and I took some with my camera.
I think I have about 300 or so pictures. Here are 2 of my favorites.
She's such a funny girl.


P.S. Will someone PLEASE tell me where in Utah I can go to get some cute prego jeans?
I'm thinking of ordering some from Nordstroms, but it just seems so time consuming
since I'd have to order them, then go try them on, then send them back if they don't fit.
Seriously, I need help!

i'd try expected maternity boutique in sandy. they have really cute designer maternity jeans. but, be prepared to spend a lot.

Just a note, as a previous Nordies employee, you can return online orders directly to the store. I know, I never post comments, but this topic brought it out of me:)

I agree with the first one. Expected Maternity Boutique has some really cute ones!

Target had some that worked for me finally, (at least as well as Maternity works for me) I am a shorty too, anyway they were resonable and fit, Win win for me....Also I have hear Gap has good ones but were I live we don't have maternity but I think in UT they do...here is the Target link...http://www.target.com/Liz-Lange-Denim-Pants-Freedom/dp/B001DXDIDE/qid=1222959327/ref=br_1_6/602-2402359-2884652?ie=UTF8&node=3073601&frombrowse=1&rh=tgt_1%3AJeans&page=1

I think it's totally worth it to buy nice maternity jeans! I love Citizens, Rock & Republics and my new faves are this brand called Buffalo. (I have ordered all of mine online from A Pea in the Pod.) For me they have fit true to my regular pre-prego size. All of the ones I have are pretty long though, so you might still have to get them altered at Nordstrom. Hope that helps! P.S- your lucky you barely even have to wear maternity jeans.

Cute cute cute pictures!! She is such a doll. You've probably seen these already, but I loved the seceret fit belly pants from Motherhood Maternity. I was too tall for them so I couldn't get them :( but they fit awesome otherwise and the belly pannel is nice because it's super thin and you can fold it down if you want. Good luck, shopping for maternity jeans is the worst!

Oh ya, and I found maternity jeans by Seven, my favorite!

keep buying comfy dresses/skirts, save the cash for great jeans when you're not pregnant. :)

designer pregnancy jeans are totally over-rated!

I HATE shopping for maternity jeans. I find no success for my body either and I HATE IT with a burning passion.
