Keeping Your Sexy and The Second Trimester

We're in our second trimester, everyone! I feel like the first trimester can be the most nerve-wracking. So much is happening and changing (not that there aren't things happening and changing in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters, but you get what I'm saying). It's like there's a sense of relief with moving into the next stage of pregnancy and it feels good. Today we're 14 weeks + 1 day. We're a little behind on our photos as my photographer aka my husband has been working crazy hours and we just haven't had a second! But don't you fret - I'll update with a picture this week!

As I sit here sipping my coffee (it's decaf) and peruse through my social media accounts, I'm reminded that shortly the only updates I'll be seeing anywhere will be regarding the Broncos vs. Patriots playoff game. Since I'm a Green Bay fan by marriage and Green Bay is out of the playoffs - I suppose I'll be a Broncos fan for the time being. GO BRONCOS!


Speaking of the Broncos, I am a huge fan of the show Eric and Jessie on E! The show features Eric Decker of the Denver Broncos and his wife, country music singer, Jessie James embarking on that every day thing we call "life". Eric and Jessie are expecting and just did an AMAZING pregnancy spread together in GQ Magazine. Seriously - if you haven't seen it yet, check it out here. I'm a huge advocate of maternity photos. Especially ones that are unique and a bit more staged. Eric and Jessie look super sexy half naked in some of the pictures and it just goes to show that even though you're pregnant - you don't have to lose your sexy!


I'll be the first to admit that pregnancy has caused me to have a lot of fugly days. My hair is greasy and turning gray (I'm 26 people!), my face is breaking out worse than it did when I was a pubescent 15 year old, my boobs are growing exponentially, and et cetera, et cetera. When you're going through so many physical changes at once, it's a bit overwhelming. I have been blessed with a husband who still finds me attractive even on my worse days. And better yet - who still thinks I'm sexy with my little baby bump. It's freaking awesome. So, to all you pregnant ladies out there feeling down, put on some make up and roll around in your fancy panties with your husband. I promise you that you won't feel ugly afterwards.
