Preggo Style: Dress & A Jean Jacket

We are wrapping up Day 2 of a Snow Day. And guess what? We've got another one tomorrow. Now, I'm not ecstatic about snow days, but not for the reasons you might think. We're actually having a good time. Baking cookies, playing games and reading books while my kids enjoy the dusting of snow on the ground. I'm also happy that our school district is thinking about the safety of our kids. I mean, the roads have been incredibly slick and icy and us Floridians don't know what to do with that! What I dislike about snow days is that I had my week all planned out at school and now I have to rearrange those plans. I'm supposed to test third graders on fractions when they get back to school, but after having three days off right in the middle of the week, how can I do that? If they're anything like me when I was in third grade, all thoughts of numerators and denominators and fractions greater than one have flown right out of their sweet little heads.  So, although I've had a good time with my kids this week, I'd love it if we didn't have any more unplanned days off.

And now that I've rattled on and on about our snow days, let's get down to business. You know, the business of how I'm dressing this bump that is growing by leaps and bounds.

Just a mere two days before the temperature dipped into the 20's and Florida got attacked with ice and snow, we had a beautiful day with highs in the 60's. That is my kind of winter. The kind of winter that allows for bare knees and light denim jackets.

Funny story about this dress. I actually bought it for my mom. Then it hung in my closet for a day or two and I couldn't stop looking at it and thinking how pretty the colors were and how my mint polish would match the stripes so perfectly… So, then I tried it on and well, it kind of fit. So, um, I'm keeping it...  And I bought my mom something else. 

Here's my 22-week belly.

Visiting from Three-Fer Thursday Link-up! I'm wondering how much snow you guys got to warrant three snow days :) Love your look, so adorable!
