It was a rough go at first. Wasn't sure if they were going to make it over the thighs... it was touch and go... but with a few lunges, a few hops and some really wicked maneuvering I got them up and over the thighs and up over my ass.
Now before you go on hating me, saying "girl if you are back to preprego weight and size..." I am so not. The jeans did not zip.
They didn't even make the attempt to zip. And there is a generous amount of stretch in these jeans. But I am happy for where I am at. I have a few blouse-y shirts that can hide my unzipped jeans that will make this work.
So I am going to fake it till I make it.
The reason why the attempt at skinny jeans? We are headed to Ikea to pick up a sink for our kitchen!!!
Yeah, from the as is section (I recommend stalking this area when ever you are at Ikea - some really great deals). So we are going to start "collecting" all the pieces we need for the kitchen slowly but surely... then maybe it won't hurt quite as bad as it would if we purchased it all at once... that is my theory and I am sticking to it.
So I had to change out of my sweat pants and pretend to reenter the real world that is not covered in baby spit up.... I can hardly remember civilization as of right now so this trip is my reintroduction!!!
I feel as though I should have a big fluffy white debutant ball gown for this event ... alas I never was one (pure jealousy since I love ridiculous reasons to get dressed up and prettied up and I am sure I could have found a fabulous pair of shoes to wear...).
Anywho, now I must go a dust off my make-up so I don't scare any young children with the dark circles under my eyes....
UPDATE: booya got me a $300 sink for under $50 (one small crack on a corner - but we have the missing piece and it looks like an easy cosmetic fix) so yeah major score. Major negative? My poor floppy tummy was not ready for skinny jeans. Guess who is back into her sweats? Me Me Me!
