Photo Session

Last week we had a Karis, Emily and belly Photo Session. It was easy (cheap) and simple (cheap) thanks to our pretty nice camera and husband/dad/photographer. We are getting some good natural light through our windows so we even took all the pics in the apt. Here are some of my favs.

Also some folks have been asking about what we (the baby and Karis) need/want. I figured I could make a list for anyone (grandparents, aunts, etc.) interested.

Karis- Any learning/school games/activities/toys: coloring books, stamps/ink pads, play dough/moon dough
Dress up clothes: police officer, doctor, fire (wo)man, postman, pilot, etc.
Play kitchen items: tea set, fake food, etc.
Books! The kids loves books just like her daddy does.
Movies: She loves musicals and Pixar. She already has Marry Poppins, Up, Cars, Madagascar, Milo and Otis. 
Clothes sizes: At the doctor the other day she weighed in at 11kg or 24.3 lbs and is 86cm or 2ft 8inches tall- making her right above the 50% for her age. So mostly she's moving out of 18 months and into 2T or 24 months. She is tall and skinny.

Baby- She will have all of big sister's clothes, but most of them are summer. So she's going to need some sweaters, pants, shoes, etc. to stay warm. She'll be around 4 months old before it gets really cold. So warm clothes starting around 3-6 months sizes. Shoes I think are the most needed b/c I don't remember Karis even wearing shoes and I certainly don't remember any when I was organizing the baby's room. So shoes for sure.
