High Five for Friday

shirt: old navy   pants: H&M maternity  shoes: target

1. I had thought I'd wear a lot of belted shirts in the early pregnancy stage but due to the fact that the majority of my shirts don't fit my upper half, this is the first time. 

2.  One of my students asked me in all seriousness, "So when are we going to name your baby?"  I had to break it to her that I wasn't really going to let my class choose a name.  (If you remember their first suggestion was Zorro.) 



3.  I feel like the only recipes I post about are desserts.  I swear I eat dinner too.  I made these this week for our small group and they were SO good.  Of course Chris said they were one of the best desserts he's ever had.  


4.  After many comments on this post I thought I definitely had an idea that was going to make me rich.  Turns out someone has thought of pretty much the same thing.  Thank you Allison for sharing this with me.  If it wasn't $90 I'd buy it and put it on my bed. 


5. I'm was so excited to get some fabric that I ordered from fabric.com.  I love the colors! I am planning on using the elephant fabric for a crib skirt and maybe curtains.  


This week has felt quite long, so I am very happy it is Friday! Hope you have a great weekend!

  6. Feel your pain on the button up shirts. I actually had a stash of shirts that for one reason or the other over the years I accidently purchased too large so in my mind I thought I'll keep them for pregnancy.....yeah, well, those shirts don't even fit! Those bars look yummy! Happy weekend.

  7. I love that your class came up with Zorro...you really should give in and just let them name your baby. Haha. And I was sad to ruin your dream of becoming rich from your invention!

  8. Haha! OMG! I can't believe they make that raft! That is awesome! I have been belting my button downs and loving it! It's a good way to go when you can. I specifically like to do it when I'm wearing a sweater over it. It brings shape back to my body...

  9. Oh my goodness...look at that float! I still think your mattress is a great idea. :) And I love that your class is getting so excited about your baby as well (are you sure you don't want to name your baby Zorro? Ha!). Have a great weekend!

  10. I hate it when I "invent" something only to find out someone else stole my idea before me. The last time was when I invented the hands free dog leash. A quick google search led me to see someone had already made it :(

    Super cute fabric!

  13. My chambray shirt is kinda boxy so maybe I should try the belting too. I mean, I won't look as cute as you with the lil' bump, but still lol

  28. Oh my gosh it would be hilarious if you could incorporate the students' name picks somehow - ours tried to name my co teacher's baby ALFONSO! The student that suggested it said it was a "strong" name like his! =)

But I still need to make curtains for all the rest of the house! i am a lil slow when it comes to the math dept ;) and ps that tummy thing is genius! you know what i've just been doing though? I take my *stupid* $75 snoogle i bought and roll it up in a circle.. it makes it so comfy to sleep on my belly.

  36. That's so cute how your students want to name the baby. Why in the world wouldn't you want a baby named Zorro? Haha. The fabric you got is so cute, can't wait to see what you do with it!

    ReplyDelete
  37. That cut out thing always makes me nervous. I'm not really sure sure. I think it was always just so uncomfortable for me because my belly was SO big!!
