sunday best

since fall is upon us and the leaves are starting to change, i am trying to get maddie the chance to wear all of her summery dresses at least once. luckily, we are headed to florida in about 2 weeks so she will get to wear a lot of things there that she wouldn't have gotten to wear here. she wore this orange gingham dress to church this morning. and what is a dress without a bow in her hair? i try to do a mini photo shoot before we leave for church each week.

it was interesting to go to church without matt because maddie has started napping at 9am which is when church starts. so i had to leave the service when she started to fuss and then came back when she began to dose off. i figured that my wallet would be safe left in my seat while i walked around with her for 10 or 15 minutes.


like i mentioned fall is almost here, so i bought maddie a warmer wardrobe this weekend. luckily everywhere i went was having a great sale and with coupons and gift certificates i hardly spent anything. i was really excited when i found a warm coat at baby gap for $12.99! i hadn't really seen any for less than $30, so this was a great find. and then with a stumbled upon sale and the use of a few coupons i was able to get a heavy cardigan and a second coat for about $14 each! maddie is ready, so bring on the cold weather...

love.
