hey, how you guys doing? it is hot here, and as a pregnant women i do NOT appreciate it. i feel like there should be someone i can scold for the weather’s terrible behaviour. unfortunately it will only get warmer over the next few months, February and March are historically (in the history of my own life, that is) my least favourite & most uncomfortable months of the year. so to be enduring them in my third trimester is just kind of hilarious, really. i’m 25 weeks today! it has gone by really quickly, and i sort of wish it wouldn’t be over so soon. to distract me, and you, here’s a mid week distraction.
