. . . for Lauren and Lauren: Birthday Girl

May 28, 2012

Birthday Girl


dress & scarf: old navy  shoes: target

Wearing leopard flats and a polka dot scarf is about as far as I've come with the whole pattern mixing trend.  I have a long way to go but you have to start somewhere, right?  


May is a full month of important dates and celebrating for us!
Friday was my niece's first birthday.   


Lena Jane -

You are the sweetest, cutest, happiest, most precious little girl I know.  I feel honored that we share a middle name, and get beyond excited when people tell me you look like me.  I can't wait to be the aunt that you can call to tell your secrets to and hopefully that I can give you advice.  I look forward to shopping trips, sleepovers and celebrating you and all the things you will accomplish.  You are more loved than any little girl I know and I am proud to be your aunt. 

Happy first birthday! I wish you didn't live so far away so I could celebrate you in person. 

I love you!  


Love,

Oh that tutu! It's too-too adorable!
I do like the polka dot scarf too. Now you just need to match it up with something striped.
