Fat & Crafty!

I attempted a new project. I made the twins & my sister-in-law car seat covers! Talk about stressful! I lack confidence in pretty much everything I do. Even walking down the stairs can pull at my confidence....I'm just waiting to tumble down them. I can't start a project like this without moral support - my sister had to come & make the first cut of fabric and get me started on it. So - wanks Angela!

I think they turned out pretty cute - I hope they hold up!
For a Twin
For the other twin
For my sister-in-law
I was quite hesitant in posting this next picture. This is my lovely body around 31-32 weeks with the twinses. Holy huge. I'm friends with some people on facebook who have posted their 30 week pregnant pictures & it just looks like they downed a big burrito while I look like I downed the burrito cart.
For comparison - this is me the night before I had Caleb. I had went to my mom's house and she said "You look miserable. I bet you have him soon" So - I was attempting to re-create the past with the above picture. I was miserable that day...so I figured if we took a 'miserable' picture then I'd have the babies the next day. It didn't work. They need to cook for 2-3 more weeks I guess.
For those who have doubted my good friend the "Neckline Slimmer" Check out my neckline in both pics...I believe it's slimmer in the purple shirt pic. Perhaps I'm delusional - but I swear I'm down a whole chin!

You are down a whole chin. Awesome! Get your mother one of those. The car seat covers are super cute. Don't doubt yourself.
