Today I went shopping for a dress for the Girl to wear to the Baby's baptism in a couple of weeks. It is January and as far as I am concerned, it is still winter in my town. Well all of the dresses on the racks were spring designs. Not to mention they all had spaghetti straps (even for size 5/6). I was hoping for something with at least a short sleeve. I did find some dresses, which reminded me of formal dresses (or mini brides maids dresses), but I don't think these are appropriate for her. So, now I am left with the delima of what to put her in for her brother's baptism. I suppose she could wear one of the dresses in her closet, but she is such a girly girl that it makes her happy to have a new dress. Afterall her big brother has a new suit! Not to mention, that I need something to wear, and I am facing the same problem and the fact that I can't find anything that either doesn't make me look pregnant or shows off all of the cellulite on my ass. Who is the cruel person who decided that parents should baptise their children (and pose for photos) mere months after giving birth? It is mean, I have yet to feel or look good for my children's baptism, and this time my weight is at it's highest ever. All of the clothes in the stores are made for women who are a size 5, which works if you are small, but not if you need a size well into the double digets. So today I embark on another journey to find an outfit for me and the Girl, I will let you know if I am successful!
