So I say, wear 'em anyway! I do!

I look forward to Sundays so much to get "cute" but I still can't wear stuff I REALLY want to because you know that cute dress in the back, yup, can't wear it because I'm still nursing and besides the fact that I can't zip it up around my ginormous boobs, I also can't pop those things out when the time comes. But yes, I was so excited when my cousin got married so I could pull something cute out and have a reason to get dressed up!

You also should consider which jacket/cardigan you don't want smeared with arrowroot cookies and eliminate all dark colors because spit up looks fluorescent against it. =P <br /><br />But I hear you about dressing up for the dentist.

And I don't even have kids to chase around. i am not even lying when I tell you that I had a friend over awhile back and we were trying on all my cute designer-y shoes laughing at how much money we've wasted and how we'd still do it again when I put on my highest 4 inch pradas and NOT EVEN WALKING, fell over. Just standing. <br /><br />The sad part is, I DO still buy them.

What mother does not know exactly what you're talking about when it comes to "dressing up" to "go out" to something like a dentist appointment?<br /><br />I broke a tooth when Spencer was a week old (on Christmas Eve) and went to the dentist a few days later. It was weird to get ready for anything at that point in time.<br /><br />And some women might say, "90% of my shoes are heels" but Melanie says, "I can't wear anything that would result in a broken ankle if I tried to chase a toddler while holding an infant. This eliminates 90% of my shoes." How do you not love someone like that, I ask you?LisAwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03299284773832500834noreply@blogger.com
