The Blingin News

Jillian is better and back at full workouts. I kept her home a day longer than the coaches wanted me to and a day less than the doctor wanted me to. For Jilli and I, it was Jussst Riiiight.

Now the only real news I have is about the competition leotard. Jillian's did not fit. I would like to have a word with the person responsible for measuring all the girls. Seems everyone's leotard fit beautifully but ours. How bizarre is it that I was the one in charge of measuring! Guess I was too neurotic about my own daughters......thinking too hard....making myself tense....I probably wrote something down wrong. Anyway, the leo cuts into her upper leg making her look fat, which couldn't be further from the truth. These leotards are just cut wrong, and way different from the sizers they sent us to try.

So I thought I was going to be stuck with ordering yet another leotard, which by the way is not something I would choose. It is too plain. Cut glass light blue shiny material with a royal blue stripe down the arm. Our coaches wanted it to be sporty and sleek. And it is. Unfortunately, I love the all out fancy pancy smancy rhinestone covered, skin tight, bright colors I see the other gyms wearing. I wanted some Bling Bling!

And an angel heard my plea. It has been decided that since I have to reorder another leotard anyway, that if all the optional moms agree to it, we can order a more decorative leotard for these higher level girls. We already have it picked out. It is much like last years which might be posted here, but it will have long sleeves (with jewels on them of course). So hopefully we will be contacting the company this week and we will have all the bling we so deserve for this season!
