I was going through some things and found the girls' christening gowns -- Gowns that my mother made for them when they were 8 months old. The girls saw them too and, of course, just HAD to try them on. Much to my amazement, those gowns actually FIT Katie and Ella! They are still a little long, but with princess shoes, they are just the right length.

Ella at 8 months giving me her 'happy baby princess' pose.
Ella (with Momma) and Katie (with Daddy) and GiGi at their Baptism. You'll notice Ella's red face. She cried off and on all through the ceremony. It was later that I found the pin that was accidentally left in the dress -- poor baby!
I can not believe they still fit them! How cool is that :)
ReplyDeleteWe're wondering if they might fit (with a few alterations) as first communion dresses???
