What's missing from this picture? That's right - no more Miracle Blanket for this baby girl. The swaddle is dundies! (That one's for you, Liz!) I could get the baby burrito wrapped SUPER tight, and she was always busted out by morning. We decided it was time. (Nevermind that her big sister loved being wrapped so much that we didn't stop swaddling until she was almost 8 months old.)

Moms on Call warned me it would be a rough night... that it would take a full 3 nights to adjust to the new routine. But this is Caroline we're talking about, though. One of the most laid-back babies ever.

She didn't make a peep until morning.


the bathroom at patina green

Patina Green Home & Market is a great shop in downtown McKinney that's been there for about a year now. They stock local foods, have an awesome lunch counter, sell vintage/shabby chic home decor, and their bathroom is gorgeous. You forget you're in a bathroom until you look in the corner and see the toilet. :)

So, yes, I took my camera in the bathroom. I'm not the only one, though. I've seen on their Facebook page where photographers do portrait sessions in there!

I hope to give you a full photo tour of the store sometime. It's one of our favorite downtown spots!

{can't top this}
Some days I have a hard time coming up with a picture. Today I had the opposite problem... too many to pick from! Caroline sleeping in her daddy's arms is my fave for the day, though. I love her squishy little arm hanging over her daddy's.


Kate started out the day with bed head. BED HEAD! The girl has enough hair for bed head!!


I bought her a Tonka fire truck on our Costco trip today. It kept her very busy in the cart. She announced, "Truck!" and "Baby!" to everyone in the store.


Love Caroline's nervous expression here... like Kate might roll on her.


Baby girl is 12 weeks old today.


Worn out from a long day!
