So much good news to share! First of all, my absolute FAVORITE maternity dress, the Dinner Party Dress from Hatch, is currently half off. At $149 it costs about the same (or less, even) than the average bridesmaid dress, and I promise that bridesmaids with baby bumps will wear this dress again. (And again and again and again!)
The Dinner Party Dress, $149.
It comes in only two sizes, Petite and One Size, so you're pretty much guaranteed a nice fit. And depending on the color you pick and her accessories, she could wear it to your wedding or the office or an end-of-summer barbecue. It's also great for AFTER baby, which brings me to some more happy news:

Ladies, meet Clara Rose, weighing in at a shrimpy 5 pounds, 4 ounces as of today, but a total heavyweight in the cute department.
My water broke waaaaay back on August 5, and I was on hospital bed rest for nine days before she made her grand entrance, hence all the spotty posting for the past month-ish. Clara was chilling in the NICU for a couple of weeks thanks to her early arrival (almost seven weeks early!), but she joined us at home yesterday, and we're all doing great.
I'm going to keep up a light posting schedule over the next few weeks, assuming everything keeps going smoothly on my end. (Newborns sleep a LOT!) And Lexi, our superstar blogger from Vitamin G, will be here to lend a hand and make sure you guys get your fill of wedding-y fun.
So that's what's new with me! Thoughts on this bridesmaid dress? When do I start picking Clara's wedding dress?
I'm thinking a sheath. Heavily beaded. Unless she's too busy kicking butt to get married. That's fine too!
