10 Things I Could NOT Live Without While Expecting!

Now that I have finished trimesters 1 & 2 I have been thinking about things that have gotten me this far!  I would consider myself a flexible person when it comes to anything.  I'm not picky when it comes to food.  I don't mind if someone else chooses the restaurant.  During pregnancy though...t-totally different story!!  So here's my Top 10 Must Have Things While Pregnant!

10.  Orange Juice.  And not just any orange juice.  Tropicana 100% Pure Premium Orange Juice.  And not just one small carton, we have to have at least 2 larger "jugs" to hopefully make it through the week. 
9.  Snoogle Pillow.  How have I not already owned one of these?  I love it.  I sleep better with it.  It's my new best friend.  
8.  Any red drink!  Any red candy!  I'm not sure if it's the dye in the products or what but I can't get enough of a strawberry or cherry drink, or starburst or twizzlers!  YUMMY!!
7.  The Real Housewives of Orange County! (or really any of them).  I don't do TV shows (other than gLee!) on a regular basis.  Maybe it's their drama that I'm addicted to?!  I don't know.  Maybe it's that they are all tan and I am clearly not!
6.  Old Navy Maternity Jeans!!  Heaven on my body!  I personally love the full panel.
5.  Be Maternity Seamless Cami.  AH-MAZING!  I have three of these in different colors that I pretty much wear under everything!  It's just an awesome cami that adds a little extra support and keeps everything nice and smooth!!
4.  My Mother!  Period.  Everyone needs their mother in their life and I'm beyond thankful of mine and our relationship.  She lets me vent when I just need to blow off steam but she gently puts me back into place when I get a little "out of line".  She is going to be a major help once Roper gets here and I couldn't imagine having him without her here to help!

3.  TUMS.  Let's just say without my bottle of Tums always in my purse, I am pretty sure I could start a fire by saying Hello!
2.  Adidas FitFoam Slides!  I put these on in the morning after my shower.  I put these on in the afternoon after work.  I would wear these 24/7 if I could.  I bought these sandals last year and didn't realize until I got home that I bought a size larger.  That was obviously a God thing because He knew I HAD to have these this year!!!
And the #1 thing I could NOT live without while expecting...

1.  My FABULOUS husband and best friend!!  There aren't enough words to say how much I appreciate and love Curt.  I already know we have something oh-so special by being allowed to live the rest of our lives together as husband and wife but the moment we found out we were having a baby it took that oh-so special feeling to a whole other level.  Being able to be a parent with Curt is something I am looking oh-so forward to!  He has gone above and beyond of taking care of me and helping even more while during our pregnancy!  I know I am the one that's physically carrying Roper but that doesn't mean Curt doesn't go through some ups and downs himself!  From rubbing my aching feet to letting my all of a sudden outbursts go in one in and out the other, he has truly been a great teammate and I'm so thankful to get to experience all of this with him.  Curt, thank you to the moon and back!  You are already my best friend, an amazing husband, and I know you are going to be the best father and daddy to Roper!
