the camera phone adds 15 lbs, right?

So, I had a denim crisis this week. I twittered (tweetered?) about it yesterday. My jeans are getting to the point where they button again, somewhat reluctantly, but button nonetheless. I'm getting sick of washing the same 6 pairs of sweatpants over and over, and over (and over) again. My trusties seriously have holes in them (stop cringing Carina). Granted they're about 8 years old but STILL, DON'T FAIL ME NOW SWEATPANTS! Back to the subject, I wore jeans all day for the first time a few days ago. Jeans with no sort of elastic panel or hair tie through the button hole holding them together. We won't talk about the muffin top oozing over the waistband because this is a happy story! The majority of my jeans are at least 3 years old, bought back when boot cut was still happening and when I had money to spend $100+ on a pair of jeans. Those days are over, so I decided to do a little repurposing instead. Look at me, repurposing! Up next: world hunger!

Crappy and distorted iphone pics for you!

AFTER:

I used Susan's tutorial found HERE and did everything except pick out the bottom hem. These pants had already been altered for length and I wasn't going to mess with all of that business. They turned out just fine FYI. And I call her Susan even though we've only met once and it involved me talking loudly, and rather awkwardly, down the table to where she sat about how much I love her baby moccs and how badly I need to get a pair for Fatty. I still haven't done that, I have my eye on the gray ones though, someday they will be mine Fatty's.

So there's that.  

Have a glorious weekend friends. After waking up multiple times last night with an angry 22 or 23 lb (give or take a pound) Fatso, my man let me sleep in until almost 9:30 this morning. It was glorious except my extra full bosoms lactated all over my brother's face because I was wearing this shirt. It was weird.
