Wow, I always thought that was a super cute skirt, but it's even CUTER on a little bum!

bluedaisy said...

Kristi said...

I can't handle the cuteness!!!

Rachael Cahours Acklin said...

WHERE! WHERE DID YOU GET IT, I NEED ONE!!! (For my baby girl, not me, haha) (Okay, I want one too. Seriously.)

Shelly Overlook said...

I KNEW you bought that skirt for a reason!!!

Feener said...

just plain adorable

Alexa said...

I didn't think my baby was old enough for me to start getting all mushy and nostalgic at other people's baby pictures but...yup. You did it.

Kelsey said...

Yes, yes, it is even cuter on a cute baby!!!

*swoon* CUTE!

Swistle said...

Oh Rachael! I have some terrible news about the skirt! The reason I have it as my icon is that The Children's Place made this skirt...two years ago?...and I went a little nuts trying to find one in Elizabeth's size (or larger) WITH NO LUCK. I checked online, of course, in stores, on eBay, NOTHING. The only one I could find was in 6-9 months, far too small for Elizabeth, and I bought it for no other reason than that I felt I MUST have the skirt in WHATEVER INCARNATION it presented itself. Luckily, I had a niece who could wear it.

Each spring The Children's Place makes a tiered skirt like this. This year's was fine but not obsession-inducing. Maybe one year they'll make one more like The Skirt?

*cry*

I guess I will just have to come back here over and over again to stare longingly at it then.

Or make one myself. ;)

Oh, that picture is so sweet it makes my teeth hurt! What a doll!

brightfeather said...

*smacks her itchy sewing fingers* No! Not until you've finished with the backlog of projects... and then there's those commissions you've been offered! Maybe I'll attempt something like it for you someday, Swistle. Just don't have the time ATM. I'm almost finished with half of the new dresses I promised to make for Evie, but then I have three quilts, two clowns, two rag dolls, a mattress for Evie's dolly cradle... And some friends want me to make another quilt and a half-dozen patchwork pillows for them. In the midst of this, I live in Douglas County, GA, which was declared a national disaster area last week because of all the flooding.

Yay! The Skirt is finally getting to adorn an adorable little girl! She is precious!

I love your Target posts! Where did the skirt come from?

And now your life is complete. Adorableness on adorableness.

Stacia said...

She is SOOO CUTE! That is the most adorable thing I have seen. And look at her toes!

Oh so cute! I'm glad I started my Sunday with this photo.

Omaha Mama said...

It was meant to be. You had an aunt premonition.
It IS a great skirt!

stephanie said...

OMFG. I LOVE IT. I want one for Livie!!!!! Too bad you got it eons ago. BOO!

Swistle said...

Avoiceofmyown- It's from The Children's Place, a couple of springs ago. They did a pretty nice tier skirt this spring, but it was all pinks and whites and I didn't think it held a candle to this one.

Jen said...

So very sweet! I think you should use the niestle picture as your new icon!

Kim said...

MY EYEEEES, CAN'T STAND THE CUTENESS!!!!
Sidenote: I've been setting the table with the Swistle Care Package cloth napkins and I cannot tell you how festive it looks and how happy it makes me. Thank you again, for you understand it truly is the little things in life that can sometimes make all the difference.

Kelly said...

SO cute!!!!

Cookie said...

That skirt is beyond cute. It is clothes like this that make me both long for a daughter and thankful that I don't have one. Because her closest would be stuffed full of clothes that I bought just because they were so cute.

Jennifer said...

I don't think I have ever posted here, but I just have to say, that is an adorable skirt - but even cuter on the baby.

shygirl said...

Oh my goodness, Swistle. I am so horribly cranky today, and I just decided to take a break from the mountain of laundry I've been deftly avoiding all week and make myself a nice cup of tea and enjoy a little internet time-- and this totally melted my grinchy little heart. I cannot even believe how freaking adorable this photo is! You totally turned my day around by sharing it!

Astarte said...

She looks like a gorgeous fairy ballerina!!!

Jewels said...

Sooo cute!

I am curious to hear exactly what 'Anonymous' thinks is narcissistic about this? It looks to me like a cute baby wearing a pretty skirt....

SIL Anna said...

We loooooove the skirt! Your niece loves the skirt, too. Even if she does spend a lot of time trying to gnaw the hem of it.

desperate housewife said...

Man, Swistle, you're not making it any easier to stick to my "give the mind and body time to heal" mantra re: trying again for a baby. ME WANTS ANOTHER GIRL PLEASE!

Missives From Suburbia said...

Ohh... maybe you can make this a traveling skirt? I'd love to see it on my little one's bum.

Bethtastic said...

Dear me. That's just precious.

Steph the WonderWorrier said...

Oh. My. GOODNESS.

That is sooo cute! I'm so glad to see the skirt as a real skirt and not just an icon! LOL. It's like seeing a celebrity pop off the page of a magazine or something! This skirt is so a blog celebrity in its own right.

Ashley said...

That is so cute!

Kelly said...

this picture should be your new blog icon. =)

CAQuincy said...

Aren't you glad you bought it? LOVE IT!

Shelly said...

That is WAY TOO CUTE. LOVE.
