28: An Oldie But Goodie

So this is kind of cheating on my 100 post thing, but the following is actually a re-post from a few months ago. But I wanted to re-post it with good reason . . . I need to hear it again.

I went tonight to try to find some post-baby clothes for summer that actually fit.

Need I say more????

Without further ado . . .
