So it's no secret that I love buying cute outfits for my kids.
I can't help it.
Some people are all, "I don't bother getting the cute outfits because my kids outgrow it in a month." Not mine. I gave birth to incredibly skinny children who can remain in an outfit for over a year. Heck, my daughter is 2 and she can still fit into some 12-18 clothes.
Anyhow, I have some pictures. It's getting chilly over here which means it's time to break out the fall clothes!
I fell in love with the owl vest and had to have it.
How do I get her to laugh? I jump around and sing creepy Yo Gabba Gabba songs. Yes, my neighbors think I'm crazy. They've walked by several times. One guy shouted, "Nice song!" when I was singing about not biting your friends.
My neighbors also think I'm nuts because I do things like this:
What? So it's not normal to pose in sixteenth century clothing in your front yard? I once went outside and attempted to tend to the plants that I attempted to grow over the summer in this dress hoping that it would make gardening more exciting. It didn't. I was still bored and still wonder what people see in it. I suppose the outcome is nice but the problem is, I can't GET to the outcome. Oh well. And yes, I will be wearing this dress on Halloween. Maybe I'll even curtsy to the kids who come to the door and be like, "How does thou do this evening?"
Then Natalie started a conversation with a stick. Should I be concerned?
***Cue Muzak for the outfit change. La la la why do birds, suddenly appear....***
This would also be perfect for Valentine's Day.
Love this picture even though she seems really attached to those stick things..
She's all, "Yo. If you like these clothes, shop at Crazy8."
Her reaction when I told her we were out of Hershey Kisses. She's all, "WTF woman? You best be getting me some more chocolate."
She's all, "I know. I don't get the purpose of Dancing with the Stars either. If the show went away, there could be so many other shows in its place. It's on the air too much!"

You really take GREAT pictures! Her outfits are adorable. I love love love dressing Maggie up. Her daycare teacher said today that she loves Maggie's "style". LOL!
ReplyDeleteShe is adorable. Enjoy buying her the clothes you want her to wear while you still can.
ReplyDeleteShe is so incredibly beautiful, Amber. I love those eyes of hers. Your dress is very cool! How goes thou this evening-- just watch the kids perplexed expressions staring back at you!! :)
ReplyDeleteI wish I had those outfits.
ReplyDeleteI hate dancing with the stars and the picture where she is talking to the stick is adorable
ReplyDeleteI watched Yo Gabba Gabba one time with my son. Once. That night, I had a horrific nightmare about being chased in a dark alley by people wearing skin tight, colorful leotards while eerily chanting something about there being parties in their tummies...
ReplyDeleteI am ALL about a costume change mid show. These are ADORABLE!!!!
ReplyDeleteHow freaking cute.
ReplyDeleteoh goodness.. she looks like a babygap model, she's freakin' adorable. i wish sweater vests looked that good on me. i just kind of look like mr. rogers.. hmph.
ReplyDeletexoxo
Don't I love your dress! Natalie's outfits are cute and all, but that dress is just great!
ReplyDeleteYou both are adorable! I feel like I need to put on some fancy, old fashion, dress and go sit in my yard. My neighbors would probably really enjoy that. I saw my neighbor sitting in her driveway the other day with a blue curly wig on. Still wondering why...
ReplyDeleteOkay--the pictures? Just fabulous! And I've gotta say, how can you not love a song about not biting your friends? When Nicholas was little, I felt like a broken record--"No bites! No bites!" I think a song might have broken up the monotony a little.
ReplyDeleteI've got to disagree with you on Dancing With the Stars, though. That's some quality entertainment!
Now I'm very tempted to go skating in fancy dress....
ReplyDeleteAmber you must come to my house and shutterfly my kids. You do great work.
ReplyDeleteOr,
it could be the cutie-patootie baby girl of yours. OMG...she is picture perfect!
Fabulously cute clothes on a cute kiddo!!!!
ReplyDeleteBite, bite, bite? No, no, no!!! LOL!
Your daughter is just so beautiful. You are in trouble with this one, in more ways than one.
ReplyDeletePICS ARE A-DOR-ABLE. she is a gem! and guess what? they're only little once so why not have them look wonderful? i'm with you girl!
ReplyDeleteShe is such a cutie pie. LOVE the clothes. Oh to have a little girl to play dress up with!!!
ReplyDeleteI had this song in my head until the "Don't bite Your Friends" bit, thanks to Yo Gabba Gabba...
IT'S FUN TO MAKE LEMONADE
IT'S FUN TO MAKE LEMONADE
IT'S FUN TO MAKE LEMONADE
AND THIS IS HOW YA DO IT (but you must sing it very pronounced & dramatized like on the show)
enjoy that!! ;)
I still say Natalie needs to be a little model!!! She could be on the cover of a Gymboree catalog!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's official. I love you.
ReplyDeletenow pass the tiara.
Love the pink hat! Do they make them in people sizes?
ReplyDeleteShe is the cutest kid ever. And that's a lot coming from me, I have a TON of cousins AND I work in child care.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your dress. Did you make it?
I just found Crazy8 this weekend and am in love! Owned by Gymboree but half the price - yes please! She is so adorable and I am so gonna go get that heart sweater - too cute!
ReplyDeleteGood lord..it's illegal to be as cute as she is. Seriously. Illegal.
ReplyDeleteThe clothing is quite cute, esp. the owl vest, but your little one is ADORE-able. What a personality-packed cutie-pie. How do you keep from eating her up?
ReplyDeleteShe's so adorable!
ReplyDeleteYour house is fun and fashionable! Love the personalities!
ReplyDeleteWhat will you do with out gymboree!!!I know that I probably spelled this wrong :-(
ReplyDeleteYour daughter is absolutely adorable.
I think "There's a Party in my Tummy" is my favorite YGG song.
ReplyDeleteThat hat/beret is SO CUTE. My daughter is going to be three and refuses to let me put anything in her hair. The androgeny is killing me. She looks like one of the Bad News Bears.
She is a cutie patootie! She looks like she loves to model - she's a natural!
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is quite fancy, but to garden? I don't think so. Your neighbors must enjoy you and your family!
How can you not take advantage of this fabulous model? Heidi Klum may have started this way.
ReplyDeleteIs that a Ren Fest Dress? I love it. Both daughters 2 and 3 worked at a Red Fest where their jobs demanded they wear authentic, period attire the entire 8 weeks of the program. It suits you.
Yo! Your kiddo is rockin' those outfits and you are too cute (for some reason I thought you'd look a little bit more like your cartoon character). Guess not.
ReplyDelete;)
She is so beautiful! I love how vividly you describe her personality. I feel like I know her! Great picture of you, too. :)
ReplyDeletePrecious, precious girl. What's Crazy 8's? That vest looked very Gymboree to me. Love it! My little birdy would likey. I'm sure of it. Please give more details on your retail obsession. My kids would say "copy cat". So what!
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh!! she looks adorable! the pictures are so dang cute! and what's crazy8???? because that outfit was adorable!!
ReplyDeleteSeriously she needs to be a model she is too cute!
ReplyDeleteWe rock Yo Gabba Gabba in this house on a daily basis. We could totally sing together.
ReplyDeleteCute outfits. Your daughter is such a little model.. I can never get mine to pose
Damn, she's GORGEOUS. But then look at you, no wonder...genes, baby...
ReplyDeleteNow, get my tiara back from Vodka Mom...
She's absolutely adorable!! I loved the stick figure should I be concerned thing.
ReplyDeleteI say you drive to the store in the dress and see the reaction you get out of people :)
she's beautiful! i love the outfits, too! ps - i have a friend who opened an etsy shop and makes killer hair bows to coordinate with gymboree clothing lines! stay tuned for my post about it!
ReplyDeleteAwww... someone once told me the secret to great pictures is a good subject...
ReplyDeleteAnd you got the cutest subjects on Earth! Yes, I meant subjectS.
I love that sixteenth century outfit too - although weeding and putting in pansies and marigolds with it on... I don't know..... Maybe that's what happens when you talk to sticks? :)
Oh my God- the cuteness is too much to stand. seriously.:)
ReplyDeleteI'm having a Blog for a Cue Blog Party next week at www.whoknewreviews.blogspot.com- hope you'll join in!
Oh my god, if I had children as cute as yours I would dress them up too!
ReplyDeleteThey just opened a Crazy8 in the mall near my house and I went a little crazy buying my nephews some outfits. Crap, I'm gonna be poor when I have kids!
I loved the post, but I'm so distracted by the overwhelming cuteness that is your daughter. You really should look into modeling.
ReplyDeleteShe is so cute she could really be a child model. I love the lst outfit but this last one with the matching hat is the bomb.
ReplyDeleteshe is so so so adorable!!! aww!! I love the little owl vest:) and the cool renaissancy outfit is awesome! I have one with a corset and a skirt that I wear to renne fair but I'd love to get one like you have! its gorgeous! :)ps gardening in a dress is probably really making the plants more happy! We have an orchid in our office that I make everyone say hello to every morning hehe.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! She's adorable! Love the faces!
ReplyDeleteYour kid is so damn cute! And I am impressed she kept that hat on for so long.
ReplyDeleteYes, DWTS needs to go away, it's on WAY too much.
I want to eat her!! She is so dang cute and those clothes are to die for, no wonder you couldn't contain yourself!
ReplyDeleteYou both look adorable!!
ReplyDeleteHihi I agree with KK, you both look so adorable.
ReplyDeleteYou have a nice fashion sense (I've seen some of your older posts). Nice photography. She looks so cute talking to the stick! Love the expression on her face.
I'm only 16, but this blog makes me wanna have a daughter right now! I wanna have someone to dress up too!
