23 Weeks and Banana Bread

Well, here I am in week 23, and I am feeling great! I know I say that every week, but that's the truth. I am not wearing maternity clothes yet, absolutely nothing I wear is maternity. One reason for this is I don't really fit into anything maternity, and I cannot find anything in this valley or online that I like and that fits. What am I to do?
I do have a maternity denim skirt and a maternity dressier skirt. But, have not worn them yet, not quite fitting into them yet. Everywhere I go the maternity stuff does not go below a small, and the small is just too big. And I have found nothing Old Navy wise in extra small that I like, except for the denim skirt. I hate ordering things online, because I pay shipping to return half the stuff back to the company. Uggh!
And so then I just look through the regular non-pregnant clothes and feel funny stares from people wondering why I am not in the maternity section. Oh boy, we shall see if I find anything for the Fall/Winter that I can wear. I guess sweaters are stretchy, so maybe I can find some that will work. Wish me luck!
The last couple of days I have been able to actually see the baby move from the outside, it is pretty funny to watch. The Joys!!

I have been home from work for 3 and a half days, due to the schools having Parent Teacher Conference and then UEA, and while I have not accomplished a whole lot, I have gotten a few things done. I was able to somewhat clear out the nursery room which was our catch all room, the sad thing is, I just moved it from upstairs to downstairs. And I got some laundry done. I made some Zucchini bread(which is pretty good, I replaced the oil for applesauce and used a half cup less sugar and it turned out wonderful). And today I made some banana bread, I have not made banana bread in awhile, and oh it smells so good and it actually rose just perfectly in the oven making the little canyons in the top that I just love. Mmmm, so good!
I love filling the house with the smell of freshly baked bread!
