Nugs Never Wore Bows

I am not sure what my aversion to bows was when Nugs was born. I am not sure if it was that I was so scared of those HUGE FLOWER bows that are bigger than their face? Or maybe that bows are too silly for me. Or maybe I just felt she looked like a girl already so why add to that? It could also be that I am not a girly girl... I didn't like the pink ruffles and frills. Whatever the reason, I have gotten over it- and I am oh so glad.

Here is a close up of CK- I have borrowed Natalie's camera (she is amazing!) for the past few days and I think I have Rich convinced to use part of our tax return to get a new camera instead of paying off some more debt... well, I probably only have him 5% convinced...Well, I still haven't gotten over the huge flower bows that are bigger than their heads. Maybe by girl number 3 we will start seeing those... with much help and persuasion from Auntie Devyn.

Here is a little picture of Nugs when she was still jaundiced and yellow- I was trying to find a good comparison picture to see the similarities and differences between the girls. They look A LOT ALIKE. Nugs has a more prominent widdows peak and I think CK has smaller lips. I also have yet to find a birth mark on CK- but that could be masked by the newborn rash... it is getting better though!

Hey Britt! Congratulations to you and Rich. I'm glad that everything went well for you! Now you have 2 little girls. How fun!! :)

I am with you on the frills and things. When we found out we were having a girl, I was excited, and then a little panicked... I HATE pink! As long as there isn't too much of it, I can take it. But I am not a girly girl, never have been. And I despise the flower headbands that are as big, if not bigger than the babies head! I like little bows, or cute little clippes for their hair... emphasis on LITTLE. It's a baby for crying out loud~ :)

Super cute girls! CK and nugs have adorable baby pictures. I'm with you on the BIG bows. I like the smaller ones that don't hide their cute faces. Congrats again!

I love the bows. They are very cute. I never had my girls wear bows when they were little. If I have another girl I will have to start.

Baby Nugs was before the discovery of the ribbon store...

And Devyn will be so happy to know that I have a hat with a big flower on it for CK. However, it will be some time before it fits that tiny little head of hers. I haven't given it to you yet because I need more excuses to come over and see you!
