pants and pants

Even though Julia was an understanding sport about the confetti failure of a onesie from yesterday...I (being a considerate parent) wanted to try to make it up to her. Redemption manifested in brown leggings cut from the cloth of a tank top. 
yee hee haw.

no room to grow though. deprived childhood. 

I bought these linen pants a few years ago at a very fancy store. You may have heard of it...Forever XXI? Known for the quality and durability of their finery...
I didn't think it was possible to make them any more unflattering than they were
but I did
paging a wannabe Betty Draper
apparently tapered khakis don't flatter my figure at all
weird

and a small Simon Says:
Last night Simon and I were talking about how we feel a lot older than our ages of 27 years...but after some thought and silence Simon was sure to add,

"...but I'm still dapper!"

agreed. of course.

    I actually really like the way those turned out. They make you look super leggy.

    wait, for reals? you don't like how those pants turned out? your legs look 8 million miles long.
    and also? i would use the word "dapper" in as many conversations as possible. it's a fabulous word with fabulous meaning. in fact, i'll work it into several conversations tomorrow. just decided. tomorrow's going to be a fun day.

    I like how the pants came out! And your baby is ADORABLE. Oh my gosh. I love this age when they're still smiley and snuggly. Actually I say I love every age so you know, grain of salt and all that. :)
