I'm so excited! I had this great tutu dress custom made by a lady on Etsy (where else?). I'm beyond addicted to that website...it's really pitiful. I ordered this tutu dress for Ella to wear this summer when we go to the beach. Won't it be too cute for beach pictures?! I was so excited to receive it in the mail today, I just had to put it on her, over her clothes and all! Ella was really interested in all the layers of tulle. She's like a purple little puff of a fairy. I love it! When she's standing you can see how incredibly full this dress is. I'm just blown away at how well made this is. And she was back ordered when I ordered, which is understandable because her craftsmanship is incredible; but as a kind gesture she made a wand and a hair wreath at no additional charge. You'll have to check out this lady's store, she's very talented:

Okay, I know I shouldn't have; but Ella wasn't cooperating, and wouldn't keep her hair wreath on. Sterling on the other hand was happy to be my little model, and I was dying to see what it looked like on a baby. I know...I shouldn't have ever mentioned this to anyone, let alone taken pictures of him wearing his sister's purple flower wreath, but look how cute he looks! Bad, bad Mommy...I guess if he grows up to do a tap and kick routine on broadway, we'll know who to blame.
