Birth Announcement
I can't believe how big Emery is getting. We shot these photos for her birth announcement when she was about two weeks old. It seems like it was so long ago. She was so tiny & bird like, and slept so much. I miss those days (okay parts of those days :)) but love the days with her now.

CFL for ELuxe
With the Grey Cup less then a week away, I am getting into the spirit with my CFL for eLUXE Kira Tee. Graphic tees are right up my alley & I am loving the subtle silver football terms on this one. Fun fact, my friend Kira actually designed this shirt! Get ready for the Grey Cup with one of her tees here!
Will you be watching this sunday? I actually enjoy watching the Grey Cup with the Mr, plus who can resist all the yummy football snacks!

Pom Poms
It's starting to be that time of year where I pull out my cozy sweaters & toques. My latest go to hat, is this pom pom one from Obviously Chic. I am obsessed with the giant pom pom & the white is a perfect contrast against my dark hair. I also have been loving on my mint floral pom pom from Ban.do. It's sweet how it has a clip & a pin, so you can stick it wherever you want to. What have you been loving on lately?

Maternity Photo Shoot
We were so blessed to have our friend Erin take these beautiful photos of us & my baby bump a few weeks before Emery's arrival. It is so lovely to have these pictures to capture a moment in time before our lives changed forever. God has blessed me with such a beautiful little baby & a wonderful husband who is the best Dad to little E. My heart is so full!
It was hard to narrow down the pictures to put up here, Erin Walker is just too talented! Seriously if you are looking for a photographer, she is your girl!
Being a fashion blogger it was hard to pick my outfits for this photo shoot. It was near the very end of my pregnancy, so I went with very stretchy & comfortable pieces. I just jazzed it up with some fun accessories, details & prints. I picked some similar items down below for you to look at.

Dressing Up
* Photos by Vickie Laliotis *
Nothing excites me more these days is being able to dress up. It also stresses me out. Dressing a post baby belly & thinking about breastfeeding is a bit of a challenge. I am finding skirts to be my friend since I am not quite ready for my jeans yet & any top that is stretchy or easy to pull up.
In other news, how gorgeous is this Joe Fresh jacket? The colour, the details, oh man I love it! The stuff at Joe Fresh right now is so good, the baby section also has been dangerous!
