Poncho : Country Road
Skirt: Huffer
T-shirt: Verge
Sandals: Overland
We went out on Saturday AT NIGHT! I was so excited as it was a little bit cooler so I could wear my slouchy cardy/poncho finally. Believe it or not I purchased this in January, smack bang at the beginning of the never-ending-summer. I LOVE winter clothes and jackets and layering and scarves…….I possibly love the idea of these things a tad bit more this year as I will have the aftermath of baby hippo to hide throughout the winter {shudder}.
See that skirt? Mum bought that for me 10 years ago. Good old Huffer. I always keep quality clothes especially those that fit you through a range of sizes like this skirt does.
31 weeks;
– Baby hippo is a busy beaver, we woke up one morning and Dave told me that bubs had been building a house all morning!
– The nursery is set-up!!!! I am waiting for the last two prints to arrive from the states {then I will frame everything}, the mobile to arrive and then I can decorate ::squee::
– My belly feels heavy. Just SO heavy, like it’s filled with a bowling ball. Iron pills are helping with my energy levels but lugging the hippo around in the afternoons is hard work.
– I am ridiculously excited. We have washed all of E’s baby clothes and nearly all of his blankets, I can’t believe how much I saved for 8 years! Definitely feel like we are on the home stretch now, fingers crossed the home stretch is not quite 9 weeks long x.

I have so many comment to make on this one!
1) YOU LOOK FAB! You're so styley Melissa. Seriously.
2) I hope the busy beaver isn't getting too comfortable in its home. like you said, 9 weeks. Its time to start creating an exist strategy Hippo
3) You've nicknamed your womb baby Hippo?
4) You kept E's clothes for NINE YEARS?!?!?!
5) I bet your nursery is going to be beeeautiful. You just naturally exude these things.
6) Heavy belly. I'm with ya on that. I have a full waddle happening.

Great job at holding on the clothes (yours and babies) – I bore easily with clothes so I'm hopeless at keeping things around. Out at night – you party animal you! Hope you are getting lots of chances to do adult stuff before bubs arrives 🙂

Despite how you might feel you really make baby growing look GOOOOOOD! I had a few skirts I bought before I was pregnant that I wore through both pregnancies and still wear now – love it when clothes are stylish AND super functional xx
