DD is actually really excited, she was being silly about posing, she won't take the top off though. I am toying with the idea of a pair of embellished jeans or a twirl skirt. I've got the stuff to do the jeans here but would need more fabric for the skirt, I'm having a hard time deciding. I've never taken apart a pair of jeans to embellish them and while they are second hand jeans, I'm not sure I want to get them apart only to find out I can't get them back together. I'm just being a big chicken.![]()
The baby legs are so cute!! I made a couple for sophia, but I wish I would have found them when she was crawling!! The buzz jeans are awesome- for the shirt I would put a small buzz on the upper chest part.Here is what I have been up to!

What great timing you all have- I was just at an exercise class with one of my ladies last night- It was a core conditioning class and I was feeling muscles that don't remember having!!! I am not to sore today but man I really need to lose some weight and get in better shape!! I only go to the ymca with her 1 x a week so this would help me stay on track the rest of the week!!Okay, I need EVERYONE'S help please!!!!!! This year my husband and I are celebrating our TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY!Don't know how that happened so fast! Anyway, we are planning a trip to JAMAICA in may!

So I am on a mission to lose weight! I need to lose about 30lbs at least!
So I need you guys to help me stay on track, so I am going to report each week how much I have lost that way I can be held accountable by someone! So if I report no weight loss or weight gain, you guys have to get on me! OKAY? Do you mind helping me out???? Pretty please with sugar on top?

Will do!! And hopefully soon!Oh, just so everyone knows, there is a LOT of that Minnie print floating around here. I sent out 22 packages. I really want to see what everyone does with it! PLEASE post pics as you use it!!! PLEASE!!
Ok, I really posted to ask a question:
I am thinking about my trip in APril, and it's not like I already don't have enough to do, but do you think it would be tacky to make myself some patch-panel jeans for disney?? Or will I be on those "what was SHE thinking" threads?![]()
DS has been asking me to make him a Capt. Hook Costume for a while but I was![]()

I used Simplicity 9862
I love it! Your daughter is absolutely darling! I love her silly modeling, it reminds me of Tessa! I think it would look cute with either a skirt or the embellished jeans. It's not too hard to close them back up, you can do it!I finished the Ariel top. Here it is:

They had like 20 valances. Which I was thinking would be cute and they are small so it would be a good size for dd, but the valances are $15 and what would I do with that many tinks!!! I also bought the game caribou for ds- he has been playing it at school and LOVES it. But the treasure chest is all sticky so now I have to take it back!!
Flea, where in NZ are you? My best girlfriend is married to a New Zealander, they live in Christchurch. I miss her so much, I wish she could have found a man in our hemisphere but he's a great guy, they have two great little ones as well. They'll be over here in the US this summer, I can't wait to see her and her kids, our kids get along great, which is another reason we lived closer together.
Your country is amazingly beautiful, I can't wait to visit, I'm just not up for that long plane ride with a preschooler. I have no idea how my friend does it on her own with two kids in tow.
NZ is beautiful - we did consider moving away to Australia for work but decided against it. I love my house too much

I'll join you gals in the weightloss supportI started back at ww a couple of weeks ago and have lost 3.2 kgs (which I think is about 7lbs) I have 7kgs (15ish lbs) to go . I haven't been well for the past week
so have had no appetite but unfortunately I don't lose weight by not eating (my body stores it all - I think it's a side effect from having severe HG (morning sickness) during my pregnancies and my body thinks I'm starving it).
I really need to go back to the gym(my starjumps man)- haven't been in 6weeks - it's just so hot here and it's not airconditioned and dh has been on callout so I don't get much child free time (also no sewing time
). Excuse central

I want to be able to go swimming when I'm in Hawaii.....and that would mean I need to bare my mama body to the world (and actually buy a swimsuit) and I want to look good in the pics from our trip
Anyway Good luck everyone

What are saying toting babies around doesn't count as exercise???![]()
So can I be on the weight loss journey too?
I need to lose weight and get back in shape really bad. Kind of the same thing with jham I lost all of my baby weight but stress of my father dying and taking care of my mom has made me put on a bunch of weight and I'm really sick of it! I'm headed back to WDW in October after being gone 8 years and I dont want to see some of my friends or be in pictures overweight!
So I'm totally on board with this. I'm doing WW but trying it on my own. My mom did it and I followed her and was able to lose 40lbs after my babies were each born but I'm having trouble sticking to it this time.
