2 weddings in 1 year
I have a lot of work to do...
Ok so my female 19 year old cousin on my mom's side decides to get married in July... and my male 29 year old cousin on my dad's side decides to get married in October. They both want me to start trying on dresses and both know that I will not drop til the end of May. They both are expecting me to get the dresses ordered by March. I do plan on slimming down right after having the baby but I don't know what size I'll be being that I'm getting bigger and he keeps on doubling in size lol!
I am petite but I'm older than I was when I had my first two kids so that's a big factor right there. I usually slim right back down but my chest doesn't. I think I would order a bigger size b/c of my chest and try to take it in but the way things are going with my body, I don't know what to do.
I was a size 3/4 in regular clothes when I was 24 and a size 3/4 or 5 when I was 26 and by the time I turned 28, my age weight came about. I ended up getting a wedding dress size 12 b/c of chest but they couldn't take in the sides b/c it would've altered the dress and was against that company's policies. I really want to be in both weddings but I don't know when will be the right time to actually try on and order on a dress.

Another beautiful song!
It seems like forever
That I have waited for you
In a world of disappointment
One thing is true
God has blessed me
And he's blessed you too
In a world of lonely people
I've found you.

Chorus:
Take my hand
And hold me close
And don't let me go.
You for me
And me for you
Together we'll make one

Verse 2:
We were once strangers
All by ourselves
Living, living alone
With no one else
But here you are
And it's so, so sweet
God must have done this
Made you for me
And oh.

Chorus:
Take my hand
Hold me close
Don't let go.
You for me
Me for you
Together we'll make one.

Bridge:
We were always sleeping
Under the same stars
Dreaming, dreams of love
Wondering where you are
How blessed I am
That I've found you
Now that you're here
I pray to say "I do"
Ohhh

(Chorus twice)
