I took pictures of it as soon as I had it on since it seemed likely it would need to be washed soon. Nothing seems to invite spit-up like a piece of fresh clothing. Since I was at home by myself the easiest way to ensure Maisie would stay happy while I played with my camera...

This is the dress that stalled it. I won't go into all my problems with it again (you can read back on them by following that link if you feel like it) but I will say I'm very glad to have it done and finally photographed.

Today she rolled from her tummy to her back right in front of me. I was so surprised it took a moment to realize what she'd done. I'd plopped her down on her tummy with her toys right in front of her and suddenly she was the other way up ... Shelley Thu, 08 Aug 2013 10:55:35 +0100 Maisie Baby
