Kevin and I went to Albuquerque to the temple this last weekend. Of course we had to stop at Sportsman's Warehouse to check out the hunting toys. Kevin was excited to find the "Terminator" for a lot cheaper than it was last year. I guess that because it was so "cheap", he thought that it would be ok if he bought him a cow call too. (He's pretty funny!) Of course we had to try the calls out on the way home. He was excited to show Joselyn the calls and they sat on the bed and listened to the call CD and made Elk sounds all night.

I was excited that I got to go to Motherhood Maternity and get me a "Tummy Sleeve"! (Oh how girls and boys are different.) I tried it out on Sunday and it's really comfortable. I think I would like it a little better if it were a little tighter but I'm sure in a couple of months it will be tight enough.

The cool part about it is that you can wear it after you're pregnant to help tame the flab that comes after the baby is out. Kevin laughed. He always talks about how girls try to make themselves look different by makeup and push up bras and stuff like the Tummy Sleeve. Hey, they would too if they had to deal with dark circles from being up with a screaming kid or saggy boobs and a flabby belly that comes with having a kid. I guess I could just work out but it is so much easier to cover up my real looks than it is to run my butt off and not eat chocolate.

amen, on your sentiments Kristin. Guys have no idea what we go through! But the "tummy sleeve" looks really cool. I've never used one. If I ever have another bun in the over maybe I'll try one out.

I wanted to get one of those so bad this last time that I was pregnant. I think they are pretty neat especially after. You'll have to tell me how well it works.

The Tummy Sleeve is my FAVORITE ever. I got a couple when I was pregnant with JD and LOVED them! I wore them for a long time afterwards too. And so, of course, I wore the heck out of them and bought me new ones for this time around. I got so used to them that now you can get pants with them already built it - needless to say, they are THE MOST comfortable pants ever...which is hard to find when you big and pregnant!!!
