Taking a break...
After posting a lot the first few days of having this blog, I decided to take a little break! :) Now, I am ready to go at it again. Actually, the truth is I got busy at work and then forgot my login name/password - how silly of me. I finally remembered it today...
But, what to blog about? Well, the most exciting thing in my life today is the fact that I am wearing new shoes! I usually buy crap shoes for really cheap. Fun fashion shoes that look cute, but don't offer much for comfort. Well, now that I am almost half way through my pregnancy, I decided that I had better find some supportive shoes to be wearing at work, and fast. My lower back has been causing me a lot of aches these days.
So, yesterday I ventured over to DSW at the MOA (I love thist store), and found exactly what I was looking for. Comfortable, sporty shoes that I could get away with wearing at work. It took trying on multiple pairs and being overwhelmed by the general size of DSW, but I am happy with my purchase and have greatly enjoyed wearing them today.
However, much to my dismay, today has been nothing by rain. I went to Target over my lunch break, it wasn't raining then, but when I was ready to go back to work, it was pouring outside! So, I decided to wait it out. After about 10 minutes and still no let up, I decided to take the shoes off, put them inside my Target bag and make a mad dash for my car. I kept the shoes nice and dry, but suceeded in getting myself completely soaked. I've had to spend my afternoon drying off here at work! :)
Anyway, these are the shoes (Pony) - though mine are white, tan and grey. They are super comfy and ultra cool - at least in my opinion!

I love the picture of you running barefoot through the Target parking lot, but at least you saved the shoes! What we do for fashion!

No kidding, what we do for fashion is right! I actually had to run through the ran again last night, but this time, the shoes stayed on. John said I needed to "break them in". :)

sweet shoes! Those are great! I like DSW too, especially the clearance in the back. I wear some shoes from there almost every day.
I'm glad to hear you remembered your password :)

Nice looking shoes. I bet they don't shoot lasers like mine do, thought.
Pshew, pshew, pshew!!!
Take that Democrats!
Seriously, I like the shoes, though...

The clearane section is awesome! I tried looking there, but didn't see anything that was what I really wanted. I have a great pair of Steve Madden shoes that I got for $5 - seriously! They were already marked way down and I had a coupon! Can't ask for anything better.
Sorry to say Kevin that they don't shoot lasers, but they are so comfortable that I can forgo such amenities for now... :)

My biggest bummer is at this point in the pregnancy I can really only fit into my running shoes and flip flops. In addition to the swelling, your ligaments loosen at the end, and your feet actually get bigger.
I heard a scary rumor that sometimes the ligaments don't go back. Which means ALL of my shoes will be a half size too small!
And I just got the CUTEST silver sparkly heels at DSW a couple months ago in anticipation of non-baby days.

Yea K, I'm kind of worried about that myself! Especially if all I can fit into in the dead of winter is my flip flops... :)
Can't wait to see the sparkly heels!
Praying for you!!

ok I hate to tell you all this but my feet grew about a size with isaiah and another 1/2 size with rowan. TOTAL bummer, the swelling will go away but not the size.... so needless to say that I have tons of shoes I cant wear. I hope you all are blessed with your feet staying the same. I need to check out DSW for sure!
