Roots and Clothes

I tried to be as good as possible but I am giving today and going to the hair dresser.  I cannot take the roots on top of my head!!!!  I have not been to the hair dresser in over 5 months.  I was scheduled to have an appointment in Sept but canceled since I was still in my first trimester.  I thought that maybe I could just let it go natural or dye it a little bit longer but the California blonde is too deeply in bedded in me.  Then again there are just as many blondes out in Dallas as in the Sacramento area.   

Yesterday I proactively bought maternity clothes.  I figure I will need to start wearing some of the pants in a couple of weeks.  I was hoping it would be later but on Friday I realized that my loose pants were not so loose on my waist.  Bob was patient and kind and took me to Old Navy to try on maternity.  They have a decent selection and very low prices.  I am not a fan for paying a lot for something I may never use again in the next 5 months.  I bought a pair of jeans, three short sleeve tops, two tanks, and a long sleeve top for under $85.00 bucks.   One semi-funny thing that did happen is the girl in the dressing room asked me how things went after trying on the clothes.  I told the under 20 year old that I felt fatter and more pregnant then ever and she just looked at me dumb founded.  Bob had a look on his face like no you did not just say that.   Don't ask since you might not hear what you want to hear from a pregnant woman.  But then again I am not sure if she even realized that I was pregnant until I made the comment.  It has helped my ego a little bit that strangers have not asked being pregnant.  In a month or two that will be fine but I am only 17 weeks and this is a first baby . . .
