A few things to note:
- This was not my timing, but I suppose God wanted me to get on His timeline so here we are.
- The gender reveal will happen when I give birth and not a moment sooner.
- I refuse to have a baby shower: none of that frou frou awww-inducing nonsense.
As much as I enjoy blogging my life in this space, I have hardly documented this maternity journey of mine, but honestly, there has not been much to share. I bought a full body pillow in hopes of a better sleeping experience at night. I picked up exactly two pairs of maternity jeans. I (annoyingly) went up a bra size. My nipples hurt like crazy when even the slightest chill crosses my path. Everything smells horrible, and nothing tastes as good as it did when I was getting a period every month. Other than that, it is business as usual over here.

As for the rest of the month...
I enjoyed every bit of those last days of fall.
I rediscovered the deliciousness that is Grindhouse Burger.
J and I had a super chill date night seeing A Christmas Carol performed by a majority black cast.
My co-workers and I had a delicious holiday brunch at Another Broken Egg.
I checked out some Christmas lights around town.
I watched more Christmas movies than I can recall.
I even forced Raven to get into the Christmas spirit.
