    Talking I made a romper....

    out of one of my dh's old button up shirt.

     

    of course he got a bit pissy that he'd been looking for the shirt. but he is the one who put into the give away pile. lol

    Wrapping yourself up in Dads shirt has to rank up there in one of the best feeling things to do. Great job! and what a cute model

    Maybe you could permently sew the buttons onto the front and use velcro here you cant see it behind the button.kwim?

    i like the buttons cause it guarantees that she'll be wearing something in the morning! most often I get her up and she has stripped naked. lol

    thanks.

    she is a cutie. little scamp that can get her big sister to do anything.
