Mary Smiling

Someone gave me this precious Laura Ashley hand-me-down when I was pregnant with John and we didn't know what gender baby we were having. I've been waiting two years to see if I'd have a girl and this winter I have one, but it's a summer outfit! So, yes, before putting the outfit away in a bin, I dressed Mary into a summer outfit just to take a photograph. And, yes, the outfit does have an adorable sash in back which Mama tied into a bow. And, finally, yes, Mary did spit up on the outfit in the two minutes she was wearing it.

Now this is a good video of eight-week-old Mary smiling at Mama!
