The humidity is through the roof here in NYC. And because I have chosen to be green and not have an air conditioner, I have to rely on the fan. I plan on getting maybe two more fans for the house since in general pregnant ladies tend to overheat faster than the general population. Today I am wearing a short little dress because I can. My mom had the nerve to tell me that despite my own best effort, that I probably don't look cute day to day as a pregnant lady. I was like "Um excuse me, I look cute everyday and guys on the street try to talk to me!" I think she is just in the old mindset that when you are pregnant, being cute is the last thing you should be worrying about. Obviously she isn't aware of my knocked up swagger! LOL! Only time I won't really have being cute on my mind is when I am in the damn birthing center delivery room. Other than that, I plan on have a fabulous pregnancy up until the end. I still go to the gym to keep my fitness and shape. And I have yet to have a need for a maternity outfit. My mom was like "as long as you are neat and clean"....um what is this ? 1920? She obviously hasn't read "The Mocha Manual to a Fabulous Pregnancy"! What can I say, she's old school! I was looking so fly at Coney Island last weekend, she needs to recognize! Plus maybe she is in her suburban mindset, here in NYC, I see so many pregnant ladies who are killin' it in the fashion department! I am always like "well damn, do it!" But then of course I see frumpy ones too but they tend to be older pregnant ladies, you know like late 30s and 40s. The 35 and under preggos seem to be doing the damn thing!

Hot as Hell in NYC

No Babymoon for me today :(

Today B and I were supposed to go to Coney Island for the beginning of a series of mini babymoons for us. A babymoon is like a fun little vacation that you take before the baby comes. Because after that baby is here, it's pretty much a lockdown for 3-4 months. There are supposed to be T-storms today so that totally messed up the plans. And next weekend B will be busy on Sunday I am just annoyed at Mother Nature right now. I was cooped up in the house all day yesterday so I was really looking forward to having a fun day of ferris wheels(the only ride I can go on!), fried dough/funnel cake, pizza, the boardwalk, the beach and the New York Aquarium. That's postponed for now so I have to think of something that we can do that is closer to home. I thought maybe go see a movie but seriously I don't even know what's out and I usually am not interested in many mainstream things. Yeah I am a snob! I just know that if I have to spend all day today in this apartment I may go stir-crazy! Oh and on a sidenote, I got the Floravital iron supplement and it tastes pretty good. I will be taking it twice a day to "build up the blood". I really want to keep everything in the pregnancy as normal as possible since it started it out kind of crazy! Okay so I guess I am going to check the movie listings for the theatre downtown. I am not feel very optimistic about the selection. Oh boy, another week is beginning. Hopefully I will feel better since I am taking the iron supplement.
Baby Bojangles and I wish you a happy Sunday!!!!!
