There’s just something about babies in bathing suits with their roly poly little baby flesh just begging to be kissed and snuggled.

    It’s actually a polka dot dress, and it was what she wore for her dedication at church. =) And looking through the pictures, it’s one of the few things that I bought for her–almost everything was given to us by other people with fantastic taste!
    And with you being Ms. Fashion Designer (okay, costume construction, whatever =), I don’t think you’ll need any help dressing your kiddos!

    I love this! Love how you picked one adjective for each picture….it was very moving and precious. 🙂

    So wonderful, precious, delightful, lovely, cute, huggable, and I WANT HER NOW!!
    Well, I’ll be able to wait until next week, but this was, as usual, a delightful post about some of the people I love the most!!
