I recently found these pictures lurking in iPhoto. They were actually taken at the end of last summer, but I totally forgot to post them. (D'oh.) It's funny to look back on them now. I'm actually about five weeks pregnant here, but no one except for my husband knew yet. Little Nate was just our little secret back then. 

It's also a reminder of just how much I love a good maxi dress. With my pre-preggo jeans still not happening thanks to some definite lingering baby weight (ugh), maxis--and their oh-so-forgiving waistlines--are fast becoming my summer uniform. I just ordered a few this week (I bought this one, this one, and this one) and plan to basically live in them for the next two or three months. Or at least until those jeans fit.

Are you a maxi lover too? Or do you have a different summer uniform? Do tell!
