These Are a Few of My Favorite Things...

Last weekend my Aunt Janet and cousin Ali came to visit. This was the first time my Aunt Janet met Joni, though Ali had already met Joni since she had graciously come out to help me with the boys when I was very newly postpartum!

Here are some pics from when Ali came out to help me with the boys...






While attending graduate school, Ali babysits for a family with four older children. When the mother found out I had had my first daughter, she graciously offered me all of her little girl clothes.

Aunt Janet and Ali came with FIVE enormous bags filled to the brim with the most adorable girl clothing I had ever seen, and I'm not even exaggerating here! Moreover, many of the items still had tags on them and had never been worn, and every single item had been professionally laundered and pressed. There must have been one hundred dresses, if not more. The majority of them are from Paris, and many are from Italy.

Joni, you are one lucky girl. As the mother of a little girl, my friends tell me it is not uncommon for their daughters to be better dressed than they are.

Here are some of my favorites...




Blue and White Gingham Smock Dress

The Most Adorable Booties Ever


Little Pink Bathing Suit from Paris


Little Purple Corduroy Dress


The Cutest Little Summer Dress Ever


Noah's Arc Smock Dress...I think this one is my favorite.

Rebecca,

Every time you snap a picture, Joni gets prettier! How is that possible? :)

Love the dresses! You are definitely lucky. Don't get rid of a thing as the next baby girl might be born in the right season and be the right size for what Joan will be unable to wear.
