Rainy-Rain-Rain

The skies are gray and I have badly lit pictures to prove it!

This week's preschool theme is Easter and Spring.  I thought this yellow H&M butterfly dress fit the bill well.  Every year they have a simple knit dress in a bunch of patterns for $5.  We bought this one last year, but I'm pretty sure Tillie would like some of this year's prints as well.  It's a size 2-4.  It fit her well last summer and I think it will be great this summer too.  Today we layered it with a Cherokee tee for warmth.  She asked for the crewcuts leggings so she wouldn't be cold.  I think they were a great addition.  You can't see it, but she also has a yellow Goody butterfly clip.  She was delighted at that match.

Teddy's wearing a Tea Collection layered-look shirt I got at Goodwill last week.  It's 6-12m, but surprisingly not too bad on him.  The jeans are Gap and the shoes are Livie & Luca.

Now that garage sale season is starting I'm hoping to get him some jeans that actually fit this tiny guy.

It's Here!

Valentine's Week is upon us again.  Tillie and I (and maybe Teddy) will be wearing red and/or pink everyday until the 14th.  We started out today with a red Old Navy tee.  Tillie's had this shirt in every size since 18-24m.  I think got them for about 80¢ each.  This is the end of the road.  I'm sure buying a 4t shirt when she was 1 seemed ridiculous.  (Honestly, a 3t does too.  But hey, less than a dollar!)  Her jean skirt is also Old Navy and the heart tights are Gymboree Homecoming Kitty.  My mom got her the necklace.  It says "God is Love on the silver circle.

Teddy's wearing an outfit he's worn many times before, but it has red and matched Tillie. Tea cardigan, Peek, button-up and Gap Naval Acaemy jeans.  He stayed home all day so he never got shoes or socks.

Dogs in Sunglasses and Bears in Tents

Teddy's worn this Gap Galicia romper a couple of times, but I've never gotten a picture before.  It's 6-12m, but I think it runs big.  (And that's not just because my kid is small!)  See, Teddy's suspicious about the sizing too.

This crewcuts dog tee is getting a little small(size 2), but Tillie still loves it so we haven't packed it away.
(It's also not quite as small as it looks in this picture.)  I just got her this crewcuts ruffle skirt(size 3) and I think it runs a little big too.  We'll get a couple of years out of it I predict.  Thankfully, the drawstring is functioning so it's just a little long on her.  When I told her to get her sandals this morning she came back with her pink Primigis.  "See, Mom, they match!" I've trained her well.

Spring Break Day 6

Our last day in North Carolina.  We're actually leaving around 9pm tonight.  We drove down to Cape Hatteras to see a couple lighthouses today.  I really didn't plan it, but the only shirt left that Tillie hadn't worn was her Lands' End lighthouse one.  It's even a swirly blue and white one!  She wasn't very happy to be there, but she was excited when she saw that they were so similar.  It was cool. rainy, and windy so I made her wear her Urban Baby Bonnet too.  I forgot her jacket at the beach house.  I didn't intend to pack them, but these "new" Primigi pink mary janes were what Tillie was wearing when we left last Friday.  I bought them at a garage sale for $3 a couple weeks ago.

Teddy wore his Gap jeans again, with a Carter's bodysuit and Crazy 8 polo.  My mom got the polo super-cheap right after Teddy was born.  I think long-sleeves look cute under polos and it extends the time he can wear them weather-wise!
