$10 Target dress from the junior’s section. Oh heck yes. Should do something about my ridiculous pallidness. How far along? 18 weeks, 2 days. (You become oddly specific about these things when you’re pregnant. I usually don’t know what day of the week it is. But I know how pregnant I am!) How big isRead the whole post >>
