Broternity Pants

So, after pondering the wonders of maternity pants a lightbulb went off in my head. Why limit the comforts of the maternity pants to women? Below is my ad for my new product: Broternity Pants


Gentlemen, are you tired of uncomfortable pants? Nothing at regular retailers will fit exactly as you want? You never need fret again. Introducing: Broternity! Finally, comfort you can fit in.

Ate too much at the picnic? Don’t worry, Broternity pants stretch with you so you don’t have to pass up 4 helpings of Uncle Billy’s famous ribs or Aunt Ruth’s famous apple pie!

Do your pants constantly sag? Broternity pants have a wide elastic waistband that hug your manly girth from morning until night.

Fed up with painful red lines across your belly at the end of the day? Broternity uses patented soft cotton/elastic technology so you don’t have to worry about cutting off circulation or having a painful red line.

Say goodbye to belts with homemade notches and say hello to Broternity pants. Finally, comfort you can fit in.

Do you think I'd have any customers? Any takers?

Pregnancy Update #1

I promise not to make every post from now on about being pregnant, but I can't promise that I won't do any pregnancy-complaining on here.

I thought I would answer a few of the more common questions.

1. 14 weeks
2. I've actually been really lucky and not had horrible morning sickness or anything of the like. I just have to plan my meals in more frequent intervals. Actually now that I'm leaving the 1st trimester I'm starting to feel more like my old self. Which was still kind of constantly hungry.
3. The thing no one prepares you for is how exhausted you're going to feel. That part of it hit me like a ton of bricks, I would be exhausted and sleepy just from sitting there. It was bizarre, however, I'm feeling more like my old self in that department too. Brandon is going to be sad, he loved the new me that went to bed early.
4. I'll certainly work until the baby comes, but I haven't decided what I'm going to do after that. Ideally I'd stay home and create.
5. Of course we're excited. But to be honest, I feel much like I felt before I was pregnant. I guess I just thought being pregnant would change me somehow, but it hasn't. I'm still ol' me. Life is constantly teaching me that what my feelings are my decision and are not based solely on my circumstances. Maybe motherhood will have a more lasting effect.
6. Maternity pants rock. I don't know why I ever bothered wearing regular pants. I'm just going to wear maternity pants the rest of my life. I just got my first package from Old Navy Maternity today of really cute maternity stuff. I got a really cool pair of jeans from there that look great and are so comfortable. Go Old Navy Maternity! BTW don't shop at Motherhood Maternity, it's expensive and ugly.

Thus I end my epistle.

Wanted: Best Wishes

Guess what bleaders (blog + readers= bleaders, thank you Julie Powell)...

I'm pregnant.

Congratulations are now being accepted.
