Guess What Came In The Mail Today?

My five inch heels...in a size 6...

Admit it, I know you gals are jealous...(or I suppose some guys could be too.)

Every girl dreams about clomping around on stage in something like these. LOL!

Guess what also came in the mail today?

My sample suit to aid in my personal fitting.

Now what I do is call the designer on the phone and we do a phone fitting.

She mailed me a top with numbered straps, a bottom, a measuring tape, a marker and pins.

Once she gets all these measurements done just for me,

She'll start to cut my suit.

(the cut of the suit that you see here may not be what I actually order)

And, yes, I tried on the bottoms already.

What...how did it fit?

Umm....let's see how I can put this....

I was surprised that the deep V in front combined with the sides

which are suppose to ride my hips high (unlike a swimsuit)

looked pretty darn good.

In fact, when I strike the correct pose...

my stomach looks flat...

I do have some stretch marks on my belly from having five kids,

but they're not purple or anything.

Once you paint the fake tan on...

I don't think anyone would ever know that I had kids...

let alone am currently pregnant.
------------------------------------------------------
Other than that, I really wanted to let you all know how grateful I am for your encouraging words and kind comments.

Also, I know you're wondering who won the drawing.

Well, this is what I was thinking...

that I would do the drawing on Sunday afternoon and post the

winner that night or Monday night.

Tomorrow my husband and I will be gone most of the day

attending another class related to the figure competition.

This was all planned before I found out I was pregnant.

The same gal, who I traveled far to attend her

nutrition class three weeks ago, is teaching this class too.

It is a class that basically shows you the correct way to pose yourself when you're on stage for your figure competition or body building competition.

I'm hoping this class also shows the correct way to pose in these five inch heels.

Boy, didn't these shoes arrive just in a nick of time?

Well, that's it for tonight. I'll let you all know how the posing class goes tomorrow. I also have off tomorrow as far as any work-outs go, so that will be nice. I dropped 4/10 of a pound this morning from yesterday.

Have a great Saturday all!
