be only briefly envious of a 3 year olds imagination then be grateful that you were given a glimpse!

________________________________________________________________

I have a 3.5 year old named Lexie. I also have an almost 7 year old (one week away), Analise. When Analise was the exact same age as Lexie is now, Lexie was born. I didn't think I could love another child as much as I loved Analise. I loved everything about her. She had a bigger than life personality that demanded attention (she still does), she had a sense of humor, she was inquisitive about everything, she was already a planner and even tried to keep her daddy organized (none of us have conquered that feat yet), and she was so lovable and cuddly. Then came along Lexie. As I stared down at her sweet, quiet little face I started to worry that she would be super shy.

I remember finally telling my mom that I was worried that Lexie would not have such a big personality like Analise. I worried that she would always be overshadowed by her big sister. Well, if the Gods of Fate were listening, they got a huge chuckle out of that one. Analise and Lexie have the exact outgoing, independent, full of sass personality and I think I'm in a world of trouble when they are both teenagers.

Here are a few pics showing Lexie's personality at our latest photo shoot. You will agree that she is a mess (but I wouldn't change it for the world). And by the way, I'm not sure how it works, but God and/or Mother Nature have a way of letting a mother love their children equally and with every ounce of your heart. I am so blessed.

 

This dress is one of the most versatile and the best buy for your budget. The dress shown is a size 2. Lexie is 3.5 years old so the dress is a little shorter than normal. No problem, we added a pair of capri pants and this will be the second summer she is able to wear the outfit. That's what I'm talkin' about...more bang for your buck!

The dress is made of 100% "year round" combed cotton Interlock and sewn with cotton thread. Rolled and stitched down neckline. Sleeves and dress bottom edge are scalloped and it is soft and cozy!

Visit our ETSY shop for more information on how to purchase the dress or email Jennifer if you have any quesitons.

Have a Silly Nilly Day,

Meet Ellie—our first model profile!

VIEW OUR EASTER PHOTO GALLERY TO SEE MORE PHOTOS OF ELLIE!

Our first model profile and I couldn't have started with a sweeter little girl. She is 5 years old. I can't say enough good things about this little girl. She is my new neighbor and she is a delight (actually, her entire family is awesome!). She took the most perfect pictures and I didn't have to coach her at all. Her beauty and personality came through in every single shot.

I sent a little questionaire to her mom and these were Ellie's answers.

1. If you could pick any name for your own, what would it be?
"Sarah because it's cute"

2. What would you like to be when you grow up and why?
"A Mom. So I can stay home and come visit you a lot."

3. What accessory makes you feel beautiful? (lip gloss, earrings, shoes, sparkly stuff, a smile...)
"Lip gloss because it makes your lips smell pretty."

4. Do you have a favorite baby doll or stuffed animal? What is their name?
"My American Girl Doll, she looks just like me and her name is Sally."

5. Who is your favorite person in your family?
"Gavin, Daddy, and Mommy. Not Hadley because she always fights me in the bathtub."

6. What is your most favorite thing to do for fun? 
"Of Course it's playing with my friends"

I also had mom, write a short, descriptive paragraph describing her sweet daughter. I find such beauty in a parent's description of their child. This one is no exception.

Ellie was a dream come true. I always wanted a daughter and she was my first. She is such a sweet girl with an incredibly big heart. She is very compassionate and loves to make people feel good. She is the entertainer in the family. She loves to sing, dance, and put on a show. Her big eyes and smile always light up a room. And we can't imagine our lives without her. She is such a blessing to us!

Thank you to the Morgan family for letting us have your daughter for the morning. She was perfect. For more pictures of our photoshoot, go to the Easter gallery.
