Too much to do and not enough time to do it!

Aug 26, 2010 12:55

We're leaving for the wedding in less than a week and I feel like I have so much I still need to do! (Mostly trying to see if I can get my shoes fixed and what exactly is wrong with husband's suit, oh and we are hosting the Synagogue kiddush on Sat morning!) On the bright side, my midwife gave me the A-OK to travel to it and has given me copies ( Read more... )

The dress looks good sans the belt. No matter what ... comfort is always my #1 thing with clothes. And unfortunately the weather has gotten very hot here ... so whatever you're comfortable in will be the best. If you're worried about it being a little too sexy, perhaps a light wrap to go over it? Perhaps in a pink to match the trim on the sleeves?

BTW ... I know you're totally busy getting ready to leave next week *and* you're hosting kiddush on Saturday! I'll email you my numbers & just get in touch with me when you get a chance.

It's had to know what will be comfy in the heat, since right now it is exceeding cool and crisp. It's been lovely. (except for my wanting to use the pool) The flash is making the dress look a little off, the sleeves are more a purple fushia, but I am not sure I want a wrap as it will be a little too warm.

I need to email you! I might just make a CA filtered LJ post. Things are so hectic here, I spent all day yesterday trying to get food together for the synagogue.

I was lucky, in NY at the time December babies were not held back so I got to be the youngest in my class and I loved it. I was always jealous of kids born later in December because they were younger than me. I never felt behind academically, and I think any social awkwardness would have been there regardless because I am a nerd. No holding me back would have changed this. As it was, I took advanced Math and Science and took Law a year ahead of time. I passed a bunch of APs. So many places hold kids born anytime in the Fall back now and I just think that is awful. I'm glad CT is one of the few states with a 1/1 deadline.

Things are insane here and I am going to either make a CA filtered post or send an email in the next few days. I spent all day yesterday working on stuff for the synagogue today and I even got lazy and decided against baking anything from scratch lol

Shame the floral one didn't work out, but I think this one looks great on you! (Better without the belt, though.) Very elegant, as befitting the sister of the groom, and I like the little touch of colour on the sleeves. You don't look as pregnant as I'd have expected for someone so far along, but then again, one of my friends barely showed at all until she was almost there, and suddenly expanded in the last couple of months or so.

Yay for finding comfy jeans! I hope you manage to get everything sorted before you have to leave for the wedding. *hugs*

I also now know what size I am in UK things! About a 12 whatever that means, or at least a 12 in maternity. The dress is the 10-12.

I'm actually almost there lol Full term is starting at week 37 and on Tuesday I hit week 33. :D Ryuchan can come anywhere from 37-40 as full term and then I think I get 2 more weeks before they worry about induction. (So technically she can share a birthday with you!) If she came now, she would be a preemie, but her chance of survival would be very very good and she would probably not need to spend so much time in NICU. It's funny, but each day makes a huge difference. Last week her lungs really started to develop and she should be around 3-4 pounds.

*hugs* I still have a lot to go, I forgot about the Synagogue thing until the last minute. Ooops!

I really like the dress! It looks so stretchy and comfy, and that material looks like the type that won't get crinkly if you sit down in it, which is very important at a wedding. You never know who's aiming cameras where! *laughs* I like it best without the belt so the pink accent's just on the sleeves. Nice choice!

It's very comfy! It's not quite as pink and floral as the dress I first wanted but that one looked bad on me ;;_;; And that is true it won't get crinkly when I am sitting! I just need to find shoes to wear with it now. >>; I was going to get my sandals fixed but ran out of time.

I'm so glad you like it and I hope to have pictures for everyone!
*hugs*
