Just Take Me With You

May 5th, 2016 by Karen 44 Comments

To quote The Purple One (aka Prince):

I don’t care where we go.
I don’t care what we do.
I don’t care, pretty baby.
Just take me with you.

Each day, Connor smiles more and more, and every time she does it, I swear, I hear music playing (even when there isn’t any!). 🙂

By the way, did you happen to notice how there’s not one, not two, but THREE giraffes up in the mix in these pics? The big one she’s holding is Sophie the Giraffe (a gift from her Nana), a toy that many little ones love, and apparently it’s been around forever.

I had no idea… Ya learn something new every day!

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

P.S. ¡Feliz Cinco de Mayo! ??

    Her smile melts my heart too!!! I have heard these giraffes are a popular baby gift (one of the bloggers mentioned it, now I can’t remember who it was!)

    Hope you’re doing great!

        I thought it was her and I even scrolled through Lulle’s Instagram because I was pretty sure she posted a picture of it but I couldn’t find it!

    She is so adorable! And so photogenic! You’re really lucky. Not every baby is attractive–there are some that come out looking a bit odd. I don’t say this to be mean, it just happens sometimes.

    You know Sophie La Girafe has her own website? The French company that makes it also makes the Magic Tree, did you guys have that? It was my favorite toy! http://www.arbredesklorofil.fr/en/

    Hey Karen! Glad to know there is another Prince fan out there. Yes, “Take Me with U” is one of my faves, too. And of course, your daughter is ever so adorable! She is definitely photogenic.

    How adorable! She looks so much like you too. Funny thing about that giraffe toy… I just went to a baby shower last month and that was on her list. I almost got it but ended up putting it back because I had already got so many other things and that giraffe was expensive! I want to say around $25. I had no idea its been around forever, I would have put something else back instead. But I had so many other cute things, it was so hard to put things back lol

    I recognized Sophie right away (though I don’t believe she was around when my boys were little).

    Connor is so adorable – I love that smile!! 🙂 I hope you’re doing well, getting some sleep and enjoying every baby-filled moment!
