A week ago my dear friend Linda, from high school got married to the man she’s been dating since before I knew her.
It was a lovely wedding, held outside at a beautiful location, on he most perfect of summer days. The bridal party approaching the guest and waiting groom.

Charlie and dad both sported the bow-tie.
The little flower girl eagerly assisted with he pacifier.
Lovely photo of a lovely bride.
The bridal waltz – look at that beautiful lace and beaded dress back.
The bride and her ever growing son.
The location was so perfect for an outdoors summer wedding, with a 19th century mansion, a great yard and even a little pond and gazebo on the backyard – I might just need to get the owners number…
The wedding-dress in all its glittery, tulle glory.
Me and the bride doing silly faces.

My two tired boys at the end of the day.
And my dress…
I did plan to make myself a new nursing-dress, (from the Regency round gown pattern) but ran out of time (due to a clinging, ever nursing newborn in my arms 24/7), and I decided to do the next best thing – order a dress online.
With only a week left to the wedding, I put all my eggs in one basket and ordered this pregnancy/nursing dress in Azure blue, just hopping that the color/size/style would fit me.And it did.
I felt very pretty (and comfortable) in the colorful jersey dress. Phew.
