So precious. Ellie is a beauty. And that romper? When she’s outgrown it, it’s suitable for framing!

That looks beautiful on her! Of course, I think you could put her in a paper sack and she’d still look precious.

It’s just perfect! And that model! What a cutie! Leaving the sleeves off was a good idea. It’s going to be hot here for a while to come!

Truly she is the best dressed baby on the block! And such a lovely model too.

One day she will give that romper to her little girl….. but we don’t need to rush that:D

Ellie’s sleeveless romper is perfect! I bet it wasn’t a fast knit though. Worth the effort though.

Somebody beat me to saying: Adorable, both Ellie and romper! And she’ll get a lot of wear out of that lovely knitting: I know your weather is nothing like ours up north, but if it gets cool while the length is still OK, you can always put a long sleeved shirt and leggings or tights under it. After all that knitting, must get the maximum wear!

Here’s something I’ve done, or perhaps you’ve heard or seen this already: for rather special outfits from the first year, especially the first six months, after they’ve outgrown them: find a big teddy bear that’s about baby size, then put the special outfit on the teddy and put it up on a shelf for display. Looks sweet and reminds you, and your little one as she gets older, of when she was small enough to wear it. Nicer than putting it away in a box in the attic or wherever, I think! I did this with my daughter’s 3-month-old Christmas dress, and at 12, that bear is still on her shelf.

I think that Ellie is the princess of cuteness… and the romper’s pretty wonderful too
thanks for the out takes - can’t get enough of that pretty little girl.

I’m dizzy from the cuteness! What a cute little knit!

My goodness, if that isn’t the CUTEST ROMPER EVER! Really, it deserves all caps. The piecrust edging is genius and so baby-girlish. And I’m so glad she can wear it for a while.

And I laughed at the “moist” buttons. But isn’t everything that comes within 5 inches of a baby moist, eventually?

So. Frickin. CUTE! You did a great job knitting! Monsterette was one of those long and thin babies, too. I still have a hard time finding clothes to fit her right!

Ellie is the cutest darn thing!! We need to get together and meet at the Wharf at the Explorium one day.

I’m excited for Dish Rag tag! I hope that we aren’t moving around the time it starts!

So cute! After looking at these pictures, my older daughter (age 3) called my younger daughter “Ellie” all day.

How delicious!…like raspberry souffle’, that romper with Ellie within. Not very easy to resist just wanting to “eat-her-up” with love and hugs. So very fortunate that you get to do just that! How devine!!!!
I am proud of you for wanting to get that Christmas tree skirt finished…..BUT, DISHRAG TAG?….now that is commitment. You are SO BRAVE!
