8 months old and moving all over now! I love being creative with her! This April I found this cute tub and added some bubbles and rubber ducks for this photo shoot!
We took a trip to the park and found this fence to take a few more pictures with the tub! I just love the way they turned out even though it was hard for her to smile with the sun in her eyes.
I tried to add the bubbles outside too, but it was much too windy for them to stick around for too long.
7 months old already… she is so big! We chose Princess Jasmine for this month since it is still cold outside. I found some scarves at the thrift store to hang as my backdrop. Some gold canisters and jewlery too.
Baby girl is working on a tooth on that bottom left so she loves sticking her tongue there! It’s so cute too!
6 month old baby! I LOVE purple and so this was a very fun set for me to create. We watched Disney’s Tangled a few weekends ago, so I decided to make Rapunzel our 6 month princess.
I found the backdrop curtain at Goodwill 75% off, it was $1. I made the banner with paper and ribbon that I had.
She likes to grab things, so I gave her a necklace or flowers to keep her hands occupied.
I also found the candle lantern at Goodwill for $1. I was so excited when I saw it!
Smell the pretty flowers!
I used a paint pen to make the sun on the skillet.
I found a purple dress at a used baby clothing store and used embroider thread to make the criss-cross on the top.
The hair is from an old doll that I found and the scissors I found on Amazon.
Reading to bitty babies may seem pointless, but there are several great things about reading to the tiny ones! It lets them have your full attention and hear the sound of the voice that they love, which can sooth them. It helps them learn the love of books, reading, and learning. Encourages them to learn how to hold books and turn pages. Exposes them to rhyme and other language development. Reading is a great life long skill that you can start now with your little one.
Here are a few of our favorite books for new babies…
She is 5 months old… time is flying by! I chose Elsa for this month since it is January. I had fun creating this winter wonderland with things that I found after Christmas clearance while shopping!
We love snow!
She still hates being on her tummy!
I absolutely love when she touches her toes together!
The kids made ornaments for Grandparents and Aunts. I made this little paper that tells who made which ornament! My idea was to make it look like a box of chocolates when you open it… with the paper telling what is in each compartment. I love how they turned out!
MISTLETOES CANVAS
Storm made a cute Mistletoes canvas for her Grandparents! I tried to wrap the Mistletoes canvas with cute red jingle bells. The grandparents live in different states, so we wrapped them and packaged them in larger boxes.
CANDY POTS
We made painted pots filled with candy for their teachers! A snowman face filled with mints and a Santa belly filled with Santa Hershey’s Kisses. I also sent one of these to each of my nephews!
COUSIN SNACK BOXES
Each of the kids made a snack and we put them all in these cute boxes that I found at the Dollar Tree for their cousins! “J is for Jesus” candy cane, “Snowman Soup”, “Do You Want to Build a Snowman?”, “Gingerbread girl Oatmeal Cream Pie”! The cousins live in different states, so we taped the lids on the boxes and packaged them up.
CHRISTMAS PACKAGING
I packaged the Ornament Boxes, Mistletoes Canvas, Candy Pots, and Cousin Snack Boxes into larger boxes. I used balloons to fill the empty space, which my nephews loved playing with when they opened the boxes!
Christmas Tree Fruit Tray
I also made my fruit dip that the boys LOVE! Mix one package of cream cheese with one jar of marshmallow cream, serve with fresh fruit!
Refrigerator Snowman
She sits in her swing while I work in the kitchen, so I made the refrigerator to look like a snowman for her!
Snowman Gifts
TEENY TINY GIFT
I made this tiny box from foam to trick the kids about their gift from Grandparents! They were so confused about what could fit in this box that was for the whole family! The note said that their was a trampoline in the shed for them!
