Reprieve from Judah & Samuel

I always feel a little guilty not talking (directly) about Judah & Samuel because I know that's why you're all hear. You want to see the cute kids!!! But, everything is (indirectly) about the boys and, besides, this is MY BLOG!! haha

Anyway, I just want to tell you all...I love clothes! Let me back up a little and tell you my clothes history:

-Growing up my mom would always buy cute clothes for me. So, did my grandma. I was a pretty well-dressed high school/early college student.
-When I got married at the age of 20 Eric & I were poor. Like most young newlyweds, so I just wore the clothes I had from before I was married.
-Seven months after our wedding I got pregnant. Being married to a frugal man I bought the least amount of maternity clothes as possible. And, definitely no expensive maternity clothes. I couldn't justify it with our budget.
-After being pregnant with Judah, obviously, it took me awhile to get my body back. So, I bought a (very) few amount of clothes. All I can remember is 2 tank tops and a dress for my brother-in-laws wedding.
-Finally, when my body was pretty much completely back I got pregnant AGAIN. This time I bought more maternity clothes, but only cheap stuff from Ross. My birthday & Christmas were during my pregnancy so my mom and mother-in-law bought me some cute stuff (thanks moms!!).
-Well, Samuel is only 4 months and my body is not back to normal, but I'm ready to have some decent clothes. I tried to talk myself into become a purse & shoes girl (because they always fit no matter how big or small you are), but I just can't do it. I like clothes better.

So, now that we have a decent amount of money (for us, that is) and I'm able to get some stuff I'm so excited! Today we went to Ross and I got an off-white button up sweater, some cowboy boots, and some brown lounge pants. See, I'm not too hard to please. They were cheap, but at least they were something new. Yay!

PS Judah will say just about anything now. Tell him to say "Hallelujiah" and he will. But, my personal favorites are banana (he says "mimi") and cell phone ("dada"). How he got those pronunciations, we will never know...but, they are pretty darn cute!
