Something I forgot to include in that last post are the pictures of a project I started in June sometime. I decided to make Gaby's blessing dress. I wasn't sure how it would turn out because I haven't sewn for a very long time, but I thought I would try. My grandma had a pattern for a few different blessing dresses, but I ended up making my own design. I used a pattern for the bodice of a casual play top and put it with the long skirt from the dress pattern and came up with this.

I'm extremely happy with how it turned out because I was imagining to final product to not look anything like a dress at all. So I'm very satisfied!! On close inspection, it's definitely not perfect. Uneven and strings hanging out everywhere. But I'm ok with it. I'm sure it'll be slightly too big for her, but I compared it to my blessing dress and mine is even a little bigger, so I think it'll be all right. I can't wait to put her in it!

I'm so impressed! She's going to dazzle everyone in this little number. Great work.
Okay- you're about 35 weeks now, right? Not sleeping? Back aches? Ready to throw in the towel on the whole preggo-thing? Yeah, me too.
We miss you!

Fun new posts and preggo pictures!! :) You are looking beautiful as ever, Tyler is getting so big - he has completely lost his little baby look, and I am seriously impressed with your sewing skills! How fun to be prepping for a little girl! :)
P.S. Just cause you and Ryan always walk around with your hand on each other's bums, doesn't mean the rest of us do! :)
Oh. My. Beautiful. How amazing are you? With your baby in it, the dress will look even more gorgeous than it already does.
It's beautiful! Can't wait to see pictures with your new little one in it ... I hope your last few weeks are great, and I bet Tyler can't wait to meet his new little sister ;)
