Olive Garden restaurant and i am getting fat



Hubby chose the Smoked Mozzarella Fondue, Oh so good!!!
I had the Chicken & Gnocchi soup and bread sticks, so good for my poor tummy!
Hubby had the Eggplant Parmigiana. His favorite!

So i saw my Doctor and find out, i gained 8 pounds this month! He said...Don't do that every month...

I was kind of mad, because i have not been eating candy bars like i use to..and i gained weight on not really yummy foods...It's not like i eat out and eat at yummy restaurants!!!
I always say...If i have to gain weight, i will do it eating yummy stuff!
 Darn...I guess being stuck in the house and not moving so much will do it.

My last pregnancy, i gained 60 pounds. I was eating at Arby's almost everyday.
I wasn't sick the whole pregnancy!
I told myself i would not do that again...oh so not healthy!
And i haven't! No fast food!
So now for a total of 13 pounds gain so far.
Man, it's hard to be pregnant! Almost 6 months.

Me in the middle, Yesterday


Have a super week end!!!
And eat yummy stuff. LOL

You go camping when you are pregnant?


Mimi had a Mother daughter camp last week end with church. I could not miss it, she was so exited...So me, my nausea and my belly we went...sat around a fire... yummy foods, talked with girlfriends and had a very very long night on a very hard wood bed. Mimi slept on the top of the bunk bed and had fun.
I love my girl, Love the woods...It was a great nature and spiritual experience at Camp Abish.

On the way back we stopped at Heber for lunch. Mimi had a Burger at Dairy Keen.....The best ever!!! I had a bite...Burgers don't do very good with my tummy right now. I had a root beer shake....SO yummy!
Stop there if you are at Heber...It is a must!

French Nautical fashion and scarf inspiration


This wonderful Chain print batwing sleeves blue shirt and bracelet are from Romwe. Love them!

What i think is so French and special is that the shirt looks like an Hermes scarf turned into a shirt! LOVE IT.
It feels like silk.
It would be easy to make with the right scarf. Check the picture here. The scarf is folded in 2 with a string. Of course this shirt is so perfect and already made for you!!
The skirt is from Sears (old).


I have a baby bump. Almost 5 months and still sick. LOL. I think it is getting better. Crossing my fingers.
I like the red lipstick although i find hard to wear when i have nausea. LOL
Love you guys!
