Been meaning to post..

That my mother surprised me with making a tutu for Katelynn. I had mentioned really wanting to get her one and to also get pics of her wearing it before she grows out of that "baby look" so she just happened to whip one out, and brought it over last week.

The nice and touching part about it all is that most of the tulle used to make it is leftover from when she made my wedding dress. So I pretty much awwwwwd out loud for awhile on that one. We only have to install the ribbon on the waist, and then it will be tutu ready. She didn't want to do it without asking how long I wanted the ribbon to be, and she also wanted to let me choose the color for the ribbon. I thought that was really sweet of her.

I will be SURE to post some pics of my little sweetie wearing it as soon as I get it on her. You can bet on that, for sure! I don't know if we will even be able to see her in it, as it is soooo full of layers. I think she said there were about 30 layers or so altogether. I absolutely love it, and can't wait!
