PREGNANCY FASHION|| STYLE YOUR BUMP WITH PINK BLUSH MATERNITY

Hey guys. Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. Today's post a little different because the secret is finally ou! I'm going to be a mom again... Yay!!!!!!
I reached out to Pink Blush Maternity to collaborate with me and style my bump and they responded with a BIG YES! As part of my collaboration with them, here are three dresses I picked out of their many beautiful maternity dress line.
Dress #1: Navy Striped Ribbed Fitted Maternity Midi Dress

I love this dress because it is stretchy and soft on my skin. It is the type of dress that grows with the bump. I'm a size L or 10.  I think it complements my curves and I felt beautiful rocking this dress.

Dress #2: Black Pleated Short Sleeve Maternity Dress

This dress was the first one that caught my eye and prompted me to contact @Shoppinkblush. It for sure didn't disappoint me. You know how sometimes you see someone wearing a dress and you fall in love with it... then decide to buy same for yourself but it turns out the dress only looks good on that person you'd seen wearing it? Well, this is particular dress is NOT the same. This dress turned out to look wayyyy better on me than I even imagined it would. I believe it would look good on most pregnant women who love this style of dress. I'm a size L or 10 in this dress and I love it!

DRESS #3: Navy Wrap 3/4 Sleeve Maternity/Nursing Dress

Oh this dress... it's absolutely beautiful and figure flattering. It falls on the right contours and is so soft on your skin. Just like the previous two, this one is made to stretch with you as your bump grows bigger and that's big money saver right there. You get to look and feel beautiful while your little one is getting bigger.
I love all three of my first picks from @shoppinkblush.
If you want to shop any of my looks, please visit @shoppinkblush and make your choice out of a huge collection of beautiful maternity clothing line.

Thanks again for visiting my blog. Here's my pregnancy announcement video to brighten your day:

MY HOMEMADE OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CEREAL RECIPE

Hello friends. Thanks for visiting my blog today. I'm so glad you stopped by to read my first recipe post today.
This recipe I'm about to share with you is borne out of experimentation. One would never truly know what hidden culinary talents lies within, until one dares to experiment in one's kitchen.

My oatmeal chocolate recipe has become one of my sweet baby's favorite foods and the "ONLY" cereal he would eat. Prior to my revolutionizing oatmeal cereal in my kitchen, I had tried to feed my baby cold cereal, dried cereal and all kinds of cereal that I could lay my hands but failed miserably! Although all of my previous attempts failed 🙁, I didn't let failure to discourage me from trying again.

 Our breakthrough finally came when I made this warm chocolate cereal for him. It was like we had suddenly struck gold 😀... At least in my mind. The great thing about this recipe is that it's very high in fiber and can be eaten anytime of day.

What You Will Need:

1. Quaker oats oatmeal
2. Some milk chocolate chips/morsels
3. Some honey
4. some maple syrup
5. Some whole or skimmed milk (anyone that works for you)
6. Some water

Directions & Measurements

• You will need a small size pot. (I cook mine on the stove top that's why having a pot is necessary.)
• Add about 1/4 cup of water to the pot.
• Add 2 1/2 tablespoons of your oatmeal to the water.
• Stir to make sure the water level is just slightly above the oatmeal.
• Turn on your stove at medium temperature, then place the pot on it.
• Let it cook for about 5 mins covered. Make sure to reduce heat if it starts bubbling up.
• Next, add a tablespoon of small milk chocolate morsels to the content. 
• Stir until the chocolate morsels melt and mix up with the oatmeal content.
• At this point, turn off the stove and empty content of pot into a small plastic or ceramic bowl. 
• Then proceed to add about 2 tablespoons of milk, 2 teaspoons of honey and 1 1/2 teaspoons of maple syrup.
• Stir until content is mixed up into one delicious bowl of pudding and let sit for 2 mins before serving to your sweet baby.

That's it y'all. It's as easy as easy can be 😬😬😬. If you're looking for a new oatmeal recipe, don't hesitate to give mine a try.

'Cos you just might love it as much as my sweet baby does.
Can you tell from this empty bowl? 😬😬😬😬😬

If you give this recipe a try, I would love to hear about your experience; how you liked or hated it. Make sure to leave me a comment and I'll be sure to respond to you. Until next time.
Laters friends!
