Your weekly dose of darling

by chuckofish

Baby Katie is 16 weeks old!

We celebrated by dressing her up in one of the dresses her great-grandmother made and comparing babe and mom (wearing the dress way back when). I am not fishing for “She looks just like you!” comments, but it is definitely sweet to see her in the same dress and maybe a hint of the same smile 🙂

I didn’t have any Zoom calls yesterday, so I took the time for a full-on photoshoot, complete with a fuzzy blanket covering a boppy for a makeshift set.

One of the discoveries from Mamu’s basement clear-out: the matching bonnet for this dress!

I need to work on better clearing the background of photos and avoiding the backlight from the balcony, but I do what I can. You can’t really go wrong with a baby that cute, right?

In other news, the temps have gotten chillier, which means we’ve busted out some baby sweaters. Here’s a hand-me-down getup with bunny ears:

Katie loves to pull hoods and hats down over her face. It’s very dramatic when the sun shines on her face and she seems to take the initiative to shade herself. “My perfect porcelain skin!”

Perfect, indeed!
