Trisha at Words + Stuff came up with a really fun blogfest. It's the Baby Faces Blogfest. Guess what's going to happen? You're going to see a baby picture of me! Isn't that exciting? I can tell you're thrilled.
Okay. Ready? Here it is:
Baby Sherry c1972
How do you like my bonnet? My mom told me she used to dress me in fancy dresses and bonnets every day. She also said she used to change my outfits at least three times a day.
"Mom," I asked. "Why would you do such a thing?"
"Because you were like a living doll. I liked to play dress up with you."
Okay then. I couldn't imagine having the time or energy to do that with my kids!
I will have you know, that I dress more sensibly now that I'm an adult. I don't wear frilly dresses or bonnets. And I most certainly do not change my outfits three times a day!
One more thing: In case you missed yesterday's post, I'm a guest over at greeting card designer, Tracy Campbell's blog. There's a book give-away going on, so if you have a minute, please stop by!
So cute! You do look like a living doll!
ReplyDeleteHappy a great Sunday. :)
Er...HAVE a great Sunday. ;)
DeleteLOL! I'll have a happy one, too!
Deletehaha who needs a doll when they've got you. You look happy at least.
ReplyDeleteI have to wonder what the photographer was doing to make me smile!
DeleteOh Sherry, you were such a beautiful baby, and still are, (not that you're a baby anymore). LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking my blog again, today.
Tracy
Thanks, Tracy! And thanks again for having me as a guest. I hope it results in some greeting card sales for you!
DeleteYou certainly looked like a doll. Your mom loved you very much. You're lucky you had so much attention.
ReplyDeleteYes, I most certainly am lucky to have such a loving mom!
DeleteWhat a cutie pie! Seems like a lot of hard work changing outfits 3 times a day! I'll check out your link now :)
ReplyDeleteIt's hard enough changing kids into regular play clothes. I couldn't imagine what it was like to change me into fancy dresses all the time!
DeleteWhat no bonnets now? ah, you are missing out on the latest fashion craze ...
ReplyDeleteVisiting from the Baby Faces Blogfest.
Give me a visit at my Countdown to Kitschmas hop -

Hmmm. I wonder what my kids would think if I went out in public with a bonnet on my head? LOL!
DeleteHow cute! How about Shultz in a Bonnet? (-:
ReplyDeleteNow that would be funny!
DeleteSo adorable. We do like to play dolls with our daughters, and dress them up!
ReplyDeleteI liked to dress up my daughter when she was a baby, but I never went to those legnths to play dress-up with her!
DeleteI used to love dressing up my girls when they were babies, too!
ReplyDeleteI think a lot of moms do.
DeleteCute picture and I love the bonnet!
ReplyDeleteAwww, thanks!
DeleteYou know the first thing I noticed about this picture (other than the bonnet)?? The fact that I can tell that baby is you! I think it's mostly in the eyes :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute pic! Thanks for participating :)
I do resemble myself, don't I? LOL! And actually, now that you mention it, I do think it has something to do with my eyes. Interesting.
DeleteThanks for hosting this blogfest! It's been fun seeing everyone's baby pictures!
Aw, you look quite charming in your lovely bonnet! I think you should totally bring that style back! ;-)
ReplyDeleteSome Dark Romantic
I think I'll go shopping right now and pick out a few. LOL!
DeleteMy kids got their clothes changed when the odor of spit up became so strong I couldn't stand it anymore.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
That's pretty much how I operated, too! LOL!
DeleteI laughed out loud because that picture is just so darn adorable. I had three daughters and their mother used to dress them up so cute. After their mother left us, I continued to love to take my girls shopping and look for the cutest clothes I could find and they would help pick them out. I always thought they were pretty nicely dressed when they were kids. Now a couple of them have their own little girls to dress up and I'm sure they're having as much fun as I did.

Awww! Girls have the cutest outfits to wear! I still like seeing them in the baby aisles!
DeleteYou look like a very happy little one. Sounds like you and your mom had fun even before you knew you were having fun. Thanks for stopping by! Cheers!!!
ReplyDeleteHaha! We were both apparently having a ton of fun playing dress up!
DeleteThat photo is adorable and I LOVE the bonnet! Yeah, for bonnets!! :)
ReplyDeleteThey look cute on babies, don't they?
DeleteSo happy I managed to connect online today. I wouldn't like to miss your baby photo for the world. So pretty! Hugs
ReplyDeleteAwww, thanks, Arni! I'm so glad you were able to make it! HUGS back!
DeleteOh that bonnet! Where on earth did she get it?! Cute doesn't even begin to describe it! :-)
ReplyDeleteI have no idea where she found it. She had a knack for finding the prettiest baby clothes!
DeleteEek! That's adorable!
ReplyDeleteAwww. Thanks!
DeleteThe clothes...the biggest reason I wanted a girl (but never got her)...so I totally get your mom's thinking!
ReplyDeleteThere are some really cute clothes for baby girls!
DeleteHA! Yes, your mom was apparently from a different time. My kids mostly just wore onesies because they were easy. Very cute though!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I ever wore a onsie! LOL!
DeleteMom's just can't help dressing up their baby girls. That was one impressive bonnet!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Glad you liked the bonnet!
DeleteSherry, trust me, it could have been worse. My baby face photo proves it. But yeah, I've got to admit... I kinda like you in that bonnet. :)
ReplyDeleteAwww. Thanks!
DeleteI love the bonnet! I could see having done that once with my daughter, but I definitely never had the energy to dress her up every day. I feel like I should go get her a bonnet now... (she's 5).
ReplyDeleteShannon at The Warrior Muse
Do it! She'd probably love it.
DeleteAbsolutely adorable, Sherry!
ReplyDeleteAwww, thanks!
