[...] Is this just a sign that I’m getting old? Am I physically incapable of seeing clothes for what they are now and officially stuck in my comfortable, plain rut? Is this the first sign that I’m thisclose to giving up and turning into the cat shirt lady?? [...]

[...] Unlike my last flight with Kendall, this one was actually terrible. Granted, it was longer, and he’s stronger, but it also seemed like a much more hostile, tense environment. Very judgy. I was edgy from the moment we walked on after we were greeted by a chorus of sighs and groans and eye rolls when they saw my HAPPY child come aboard. We didn’t opt to buy the extra seat for him because, well, we’re cheap like that (even though I did struggle with the safety issue of it). And, honestly, I think the only person who would have benefited from the extra seat would have been Scott because it just would have meant that his lap would have been freed up, not that the noise Kendall was making would have stopped. In fact, had we brought his car seat on board for that extra seat and strapped him in, I’m pretty sure it would have been worse. [...]

Last night I slept in a cheerleading t-shirt…from 1995…just sayin’. LOL. I’m joining you on the potential train to ‘mom clothes’. Let’s just hope I’m at least on the caboose.

MID rise jeans are 1 inch taller, so not too high. Boot cut or wide leg jeans, will balance you out.. Twice a year purge and give to charity. Right now, it’s halfway between spring and fall, you can easily get rid of every unwanted item. Then go and buy some ‘staples’ during BTSchool sales. A brightly colored t-shirt that looks good with jeans, cords, or khakis, for example. A white button up, or a pretty jacket you can throw on anytime. If bad gifts come again, return it…’it didn’t hang right’ should be a good enough response, if asked.

hahahaha !!! I’m picturing the outfit and I seriously almost see how it can happen to the best of us. I’m still trying though. I’ve invested in LOTS of shirts that are very long so I don’t have to totally give up all my low rise jeans…however we’ll see how things are after I pop out baby # 2

Maybe she was visiting her Mother-In-Law who gives her bad t-shirts for Christmas?

I have a whole stack of clothes that only see the light of day when mine is around.

I have often pondered the inevitability of “Mom clothes” in my own wardrobe and have decided that as long as I never have “Mom butt” (that is, the totally flat, comPLETEly nonexistent butt that many-a-mom’s sport these days) I’ll be okay with my attire. However, I’ve also resorted to buying my pants a size bigger in order to tuck my muffin top away–and *gasp* they’re LOW WAIST and a size 16!

Bahahaha!! I love this post. I too, wonder about the inevitability of “mom clothes.” At what point do you just give up and buy the cat shirt? What point is that? There needs to be a babysitter mommy-gets-a-break time before that point!

Dude, who wears real jeans? I’m still rocking my super comfy ‘secret fit belly’ maternity jeans. You see, they call them ‘secret fit’ because you can wear them after you pop your kid out and its A SECRET! No cameltoe! No muffin top! They *do* go to your belly button, but its A SECRET!!

Don’t tell anyone, k?
