There is one amazing thing about Texas that is rarely advertised. I only discovered it by wandering into a mall on the right weekend when we first moved here. Twice a year a spectacular event occurs... TAX FREE WEEKEND! Translation, you can buy all the clothes you want and not pay sales tax. Now I realize this only saves me 7%, but it is better then nothing. So my amazing husband decided it was time for me to go on a shopping spree. While at the mall I happened upon some incredible pants, incredible maternity pants. These babies have a fashionable boot cut, a lovely wash, and are void of any unfortunate whiskering. (Whiskering usually highlights the negative aspects of the figure.) And to top all that off they were only $16.95! Now I no longer have to rubber band the top of my pants (which creates a very fatifying feeling) but I can gracefully slip into my beloved stretchy pants.
Oh, and on a different topic and I have discovered another benefit of being pregnant. I can no longer fit into my cub scout leader shirt! This means I can go to weekly meetings wearing whatever I want!! It will be a blissful 6 1/2 months, free of patches, bandannas, and having to tuck my shirt into jeans! And no one can say I don't have "proper respect for scouting approved attire"!! Unless the scouting store sells maternity...... I hope not........AHHHHHHHHHHHH!
