This weekend was a fabulous mix of work and play, and while I had to sit out the trip to Seattle to cheer on the Seahawks in their home opener, I was still able to catch the game from the comfort of my couch. I’m 26 weeks now and squishing into my old wardrobe has become a bad scene from Cirque de Soleil. Thankfully all of my accessories not only still fit, but elevate anything I wear. I’m wondering, has anyone ever worn a fedora and heels in the delivery room? I guess there’s a first for everything.

I’ve mentioned before and I’ll do so again, fall is my favourite. As the leaves begin to take on gorgeous, vibrant jewel tones, the air gets crisp and ambition creeps up on me. Fall feels more like the New Year than the actual New Year, with infinite possibilities, alongside a feeling of new beginnings. It’s perfect timing to to get everything organized as I know the next couple of months are going to fly by, and before I know it the littlest member of the family will be here.
Often times when I go to bake I look for a recipe that is equal parts delicious, equal parts fancy or unique. This means that the classics can be overlooked, and the other day when I went to make a batch of cupcakes to celebrate the little one in my belly, I almost repeated the pattern. Thankfully I took a moment to rethink the decision and decided to forego something elaborate for a classic vanilla buttercream cupcake from the Butter Baked Goods Cookbook. Let’s just say that there’s a reason this classic flavour has staying power. Now excuse me while I have another.

In all the seasons that one could be pregnant, I’m so grateful my biggest bump time will be happening in the fall and winter. This is mainly due to the abundance of gorgeous coats that currently take up residence in my closet. Capes started infiltrating themselves slowly but surely, and this winter the amazing options available are jaw dropping. I may not be actively participating in fall fashions this year but I have a wish list of items I would scoop up if I was, and capes are at the top of that list.

When all of the days of the week end up turning into never-ending Mondays, the only option you have is to pull out the leather jacket and oxfords and hope the week ends more peacefully than it began. I have the worst dental anxiety, to the point where the majority of my dental work is now done under sedation. So you can imagine how thrilling it was to find out that not only had I cracked a tooth, but I had to have it removed and have a metal post inserted in its place. Without sedation because I’m pregnant, thankyouverymuch. Following the old adage about strength in numbers, I brought my blogging buddy and big brother to the appointment for moral support. I’m happy to report there were no tears, but I can’t report that the stress ball I held made it out in one piece.
