All Done!
The christening gowns are done. Completely. Right down to the little tags and all the ribbons (and those darn hems – I hate hemming things!). I even found time to sew buttons on the two little sweaters my mom and I knitted before the girls were even born – good thing we made them big! I checked out my film camera, replaced the batteries, found several rolls of Portra film… Aside from packing clothes, we are ready to go! Now I just have to sit down tonight and watch the new Star Trek pilot that I recorded last night while I was doing all that stuff. Ahhh. Time to relax. And worry. The dresses are supposed to fit infants up to 13 pounds. At last weighing (yesterday) the girls were about 12 pounds apiece. Ack! Can babies gain more than a pound in three days? Nobody thought they’d gain six pounds in six weeks, but they have… I guess we’ll find out in a mere 48 hours whether or not they fit. And there’s not a whole lot I can do about it either way. Except worry. :)
