What to Wear on Casual Friday + Moments of the Week



Old Navy Maternity Dress (love this option!)
Nordstrom Belt
Caslon Cardigan (this J.Crew option is on sale!)
Steve Madden Boots

How far along?  
38 Weeks

Are you sleeping much?  
What is this sleep you speak of?

Do you find pregnancy sexy?  
Heck to the no!  I'm not sure who those women are...but I really want to talk to them.  

Are you getting excited?  
Yes!!  I just can't wait to meet him!

Moments of the Week:


Competitive Moment

Epic stare down competition between Palmer and a giant squirrel.  The squirrel won in the end (I swear he was taunting Palmer in his little squirrel voice...probably something about his sporty green jacket).

Duh Moment

We received a temporal thermometer from a dear friend at our baby shower and the husband and I thought it would be fun to test it out.  So I'm running this thing across his forehead and the temperature keeps saying 85 degrees.  We couldn't figure it out!  Was my husband some sort of freak?  Did we get the lemon thermometer?


Finally, I look at it one last time and notice something on the end.  I pull off the cap and we both announce, "Ahhh!"  

We should all be very afraid for the cognitive aptitude of our future children!

What Seems Like Every Moment Every Day

They say that you become more clumsy when you are pregnant.  I am not sure who "they" are...but I'm going to go ahead and agree.


I am a huge klutz to begin with...so I've done the math and I believe that I am currently 325% more clumsy than the average woman.

At Last Moment

I've had re-writing my "About Me" page on my to-do list for approximately 6 months.  Well...I finally did it!  I've included some of the more common questions I receive via email or on my Facebook page.  Please let me know if you have any other questions that I left out...

So excited to see your style for next Wednesday's Trend of the Month Link-Up!  Click here for details!

This month's theme is...

Based on my experience, the clumsy thing does resolve itself somewhat...fingers crossed for you! And I love your "About me" re-write! Can't wait to link-up about stripes on Wednesday!

@ Chelsea -Thanks so much Chelsea! Can't wait to see you stripes look on Wednesday :)

Catherine said...

You are SO cute. Seriously. I can't wait to "meet"/hear about the little guy!! I don't know if you think this is too personal, but I LOVE reading birth stories if you're up for sharing yours. :) Love Palmer's green coat! I should totally get one for Hamlet...

Jen @ Cuddles and Chaos said...

Not to burst your bubble but I have to go ahead and disagree with Chelsea. lol. I am still way more clumsy than the average human should be--although I did start out pretty clumsy. Maybe there's hope for you? ;)

Jamey and Jack's Mommy said...

I agree with Jen. Before babies I was the "go to" person about remembering a customer's name and what they've bought in the past for their wife. Yeah now I can't even remember my kids names...Jamey...Zach...Luke...Jack get over here. Turned into one of those people. I don't even want to get started on clumsy...it's bad you should ask my hubby.

s.k. said...

LOVE YOUR BLOG! You do a great job and it always makes me laugh, especially on Fridays :) I love your sense of humor and your ability to have fun with the everyday stuff!
Congrats on the little one on the way!

Marion Green said...

@Catherine - I have thought about sharing the hospital/birth story a little on the blog. We'll see how it goes and if people seem interested...:)

@ S.K. - Thank you so much! What a sweet comment to receive. xoxo

MMM said...

You're so damn adorable! If only I looked half this cute pregnant!!
Can't wait to *meet* your little man! Hang in there- you're almost to the finish line!!! :)

Audrey said...

Clumsy...yes! I don't know about you, but I drop EVERYTHING out of my hands! I can't even tell you how many dishes have been broken over the past 9 months :) Anyway, you're looking beautiful Marion. Can't believe how close we are! Have a wonderful weekend! x

CP and KW said...

Adore your outfit. I completely agree with the clumsiness. I feel like it stills continues and my son is 3.5 yrs old. I think it's more I'm so busy that I don't pay attention and I keep reminding people that my brain fell out with my placenta :). It will get better. You'll learn what your "new normal" is.

You look fabulous!!!!

Oh my gosh! I've been on a reading blog hiatus for a few weeks and at your first picture I thought "OMG did she have her baby and I missed it?" but then you turned to the side and there he was! Hehe! I'm so excited for you, I bet you can't wait!

I love the striped dress and I'm excited for the stripes linkup this month! Definitely a closet staple.

Wishing you the best in these last days of pregnancy. Enjoy it mamma...

Lulu Soler said...

Yes, I can affirm that sexiness was not in the cards for me... especially since when I sat down during pregnancy, my belly came out so far it covered half my thigh!!! Yikers!

You might add a related video or a picture or two to grab people
