Update..

Thankfully, my sciatica is feeling much better! I appreciate all the helpful suggestions and for letting me borrow your yoga DVD Diana! I can still feel it, but I'm okay with that as long as I can still get around and do things.

Speaking of doing things.. I decided to make baby girls blessing dress. The last time I made a baby dress (15 years ago) it had to be cut off the baby with scissors. I think I'm a little more attentive this time around and I have a simple pattern so I hope it turns out. My sister inspired me to try this after I fell in love with a $200 dress.. the one I'm making will cost a total of $18- that makes Chad pretty happy!

This is what the dress looks like so far..

I am impressed (so far - I guess I should wait for the final result before I pat you too hard on the back...) Glad to hear you are feeling better!
