dress: target – maternity (shop)
cardigan: cozy
belt: macy’s
flats: payless
bracelets: charlotte russe
I have a few things to say today, so we’ll go bullet point style:
  •  Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your really kind comments on Friday’s post.  You are all a bunch of gems. Really, every single one meant so much to me.
  • I loved all the comments from those of you who had already guessed our little secret! Because of the miscarriage, we waited a while to tell, (just to be careful) but the longer we waited, the harder it was to keep that little bump hidden 🙂 Obviously, quite a few of you were not fooled.
  • Just like my pregnancy with Peanut, I’ve felt great from day one. No sickness, no nausea, nothing. I’m really counting my blessings on this one. 
  • We have absolutely no preference for a boy or girl — just a healthy baby!
  • Despite the similarities in these two pregnancies so far, there is one large difference — I’m carrying this baby much lower than Peanut. I love it because I can actually wear a belt without constant suffocation.
  • Today I hit fourteen weeks! 
Happy Monday!
 Tomorrow we have an awesome giveaway, so check back and be sure to enter!

  1. Love the outfit! Hooray for fun maternity clothes. It seems pretty common to carry second babies lower. Just wait for the fun kicks in the cervix! 🙂

    Congrats Merrick! How exciting! I love this dress, you look amazing. Love the series you are doing on wearing the same dress for your whole pregnancy. This is such a fun idea 🙂

    Thats a very cute dress and you look amazing! I was super sick throughout my pregnancy! Am glad its not that way for you.

  12. I LIVE in that dress now. LIVE in it.
    So happy to see your official announcement!!! I was just telling Sarah the other day that I'm glad I'm finishing my pregnancy as you're starting yours because I just know you'll look smashing every day in your preggo wear and then I'd hate myself 😉
