Can you win the lottery if you never buy a ticket?

Strange irony... as I have more and more clothes (since I now have maternity clothes too) I need more and more closet space- and as I prepare for the baby I have less and less closet space!

The room that is slowly becoming the nursery was once my 'extra' room.  When I first moved in, Scott and I both had one of those... mine was for a computer, the cats, and my clothes!  Scott's was for his computer and his drums.  Mine is now gone... as are the cats (well... one is gone and one is outside).  My computer is going to share the drum room but my clothes... well there is the problem!

The solution I came up with was to pack up all of my non-maternity clothes... since I will clearly not be wearing them anytime soon.  I figure I'll just switch them out for the maternity clothes once Sam/Kaleb gets here.  As I was boxing them up tonight, however, I've realized something...  I may just have to toss the pre-pregnancy clothes and buy all new ones.  I'm assuming, of course, that Scott and I win the lottery.

As I packed up my clothes, I realized that they are way too tiny for me to ever fit in again.  Ironically, my clothes kept telling me that they are indeed large... and in many cases X-large.  They just look particularly tiny compared to the mu-mu's I've been donning the past few months.  

So the hope is this... in the event that my plans surrounding the lottery are in fact a pipe dream... that I can either sqeeze back into those pre-pregnancy 'tiny' X-large tops OR that baby doll T's come back in style and I can just keep wearing the comfy strech pants with the mu-mus!  Can you wear shirts with storks on them when you're not pregnant and get away with it?  It's a thought.

  1. Answer to last question: NO!!!

    Funny: mu-mus!! hehee

    I know my clothes are entirely too large for you, but I have some shirts I don't wear (are too small for me) & they're yours if you want them. Just let me know!
