My favorite part about our most recent trip to Canada was snuggling my sister's new baby, Archer. He's so cute! We all love him so much!

We had originally planned to go a week later than we did, but had to change our plans. I finished Archer's quilt while we were up there. It's a whirlwind week, but so fun and worth it.

Not sure if it's my lens, me the photographer, or my wiggly children, but most of the photos I snapped of them this morning turned out fuzzy. Whoops! So here's two of my cute children. I love these three so much!

I love carousels. And I love babies on carousels. To me, it's really fun and magical to ride a carousel with a baby. I was very excited to take Maeve around on the Looff now that it's finally set up in it's new (perhaps unnecessary) home. So, so cute! Fun activity for the whole family!

At 17.5 months old, we're all pretty thrilled that Maeve is finally trying to walk for real and on her own. Just this past week, I've caught peeks of her walking from the windowsill to the bench, or from the fridge to the cabinets. It's so exciting! Everyone in our family loves to cheer Maeve on. She's still taking to it not as quick as I thought she would, this late in the game, but again, just so happy she's trying! 

This cutie! I think it's time to put a different lens on my camera to hopefully catch fewer fuzzy photos of Maeve. She thought the sound of the shutter on my camera was hilarious! I took some photos of her with my old film camera too and can't wait to see how those turned out!

Maeve is 17 months old and is almost 17 pounds. She's still rocking her 6-12 month clothing! Keeping my baby a baby as long as possible!
