Giveaway: Booties

Saturday, September 18, 2010


Oh, how berry cute you indeed are, little one.

What are you dreaming about?

Teddy bears and blankets?



Or maybe you're dreaming about the giant shoes that are currently keeping your teensy tiny toes nice and cozy warm?

Just think of all of the amazing things that you'd be able to do with feet that big!

-You'd make the biggest splashes in the rain puddles.

-You'd be able to hop on one foot much easier than all of the other kids on the playground.

-You could make ginormous foot prints in the dirt and snow, and trick the whole entire world (or maybe just Brother and Sister) into thinking that Sasquatch really does exist!



Look at how cute those are.



Uh oh!

You lost one!


No no, no no.

Don't get upset, baby.

Shhhhh, shhhhhhhhh.

Hush little baby, don't you cry...




Okay.

Its okay to cry.

Cry it out.

Get mad.

I'd be mad too.

Recently one of our wonderful wonderful sponsors, 13 Plum Knitting sent Evelyn the most adorable little pair of handmade Mary Jane booties. Sure, they're a little too big right now (as seen in the story above), but they'll be fitting her in no time.

Emily, the lady behind it all, not only sent me a pair, but she sent you a pair too!

Well.
You won't be getting a pair of Mary Janes (although she does have another pair available in her shop for only $3.85, if your heart so desires)- but shes offered up a pair of cutie cute cute moccasins, for you! Gender neutral, and equally awesome.

Flashback Friday: Charlie In A Dress

Thursday, September 16, 2010


I originally uploaded this picture to my Flickr account, and somebody had left a comment saying that upon first glance, they thought the picture was of Charlie, in a dress!

And I can't possibly express to you how happy that made me.
Since both of my girls look exactly like Christopher, and nothing like me.



I think I was around 9 months old when this picture was taken. I might have just made that up, though. I like how I'm sitting on a rock, with a fake rock background. Olan Mills was obviously the best, when it came to awesome 80's portrait studio pictures.


********************************
Flashback with us! Go through your polaroids, scrapbooks, old crappy cell phone pictures- whatever you've got. Scan them, upload them, get them onto the computer somehow, and then share them with the world! Or... with us at least. Post them onto your blogs, write a little bit to go with them- tell us your story. When you're all finished, grab one of our buttons from down below (wayyyy down there at the bottom of our page) and put it somewhere inside your post (or link back to us the old fashioned text way). Come back here to this post, and add your link to the photo list below!

And if you've got a minute, maybe go poke around some of the other flashbacks posted, and leave a comment or two?
