And I love this unseasonably warm 70 degree weather we’re experiencing. It’s so nice to sit in the yard together.

    awww her face has changed so much, she’s starting to really look like a little girl instead of a baby – so cute!

    I love that pillow too, where’s it from?

    1. Making it Lovely Avatar

      The suzani pillow was from Pottery Barn (last year), and the black and white striped one is from IKEA.

    I love Eleanor’s outfit — I assume it’s Liberty of London for Target?

  25. andrea Avatar

    Cute! So jealous. I haven’t managed to score any of the Liberty of London baby clothes. All sold out.

    Adorable!

    I remember reading your post on getting elephant things for Eleanor and I saw this and thought of you guys.

    http://www.zoechicco.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=29_1_11&products_id=246

    I know it’s a little much for a baby, but I’m thinking like Sweet 16 or 21st. It’s super cute. Just in case you were planning ahead. =)

    1. Making it Lovely Avatar

      Ooh, I want one for me! I would wear it all the time to symbolize my little Eleanor. (Yeah, I may as well give up on avoiding the Eleanor/elephant thing.) And her birthstone is a diamond. Is it not the perfect mother’s day gift for me? And then I could pass it down to Eleanor on a milestone birthday… I’m getting sentimental just thinking about it.

    Well, don’t we all love that egg chair? If only I looked as cute in that Liberty print, though.

  35. Rebekah Coleman-Brahler Avatar

    look at her in her little liberty ensemble! how sweet is that???

  36. Kat Avatar
    Kat

    This might be an odd question, but do you have to iron the dress after it’s been in the wash? I didn’t buy the Liberty dress because ironing a dress for daughter would be a waste since it wouldn’t stay wrinkle free for very long!

    1. Making it Lovely Avatar

      No way, I wouldn’t bother ironing clothes for a baby! The dress has been fine. Maybe a little wrinkly, but not to the point of bothering me.

    Mark my words, that chair will be her dollhouse/fairy princess castle/fort/favorite reading knook/favorite makeout spot over the years. Too cute.

    So cute! Love your outdoor furniture, by the way. Would you be willing to share how you made that “inspiration/collection board” of all of your outdoor stuff that you posted yesterday? I love when I see those. Great way to organize ideas.

    1. Making it Lovely Avatar

      I create my boards in Photoshop.

    Precious! That’s a popular outfit. I got that one for my 2 year old as well:)

    I bet she does love that cool chair. I do, too!

    I just saw a woman wearing a trench coat made from this fabric today. Do you know who designed it?

      It’s from the Liberty of London line at Target.

    To adorable.

  74. alison Avatar

    such cute pics. especially the first one, it could be an ad because she cooridinates so well with the pillow. i can’t remember if you said where you got the chair from? i am from chicago too and lovin the weather!

  75. mary Avatar

    What great photos! And those chubby little feet…ADORABLE!!

  76. Amy Avatar

    Wow – these are darling photos. An above commenter is right – they could be photos for a catalog – I’d buy it all! Speaking of which – I’ve already got a liberty dress for my little darling – but the chair. I’ve been wanting chairs similar to yours for a while, but have been holding off because of fear of rain soaked, moldy cushions. Do you have to do anything special for weather (ie, bring inside every night, etc) or can you just leave them be? I’m afraid it would be such a hassle…

  77. Melissa Avatar

    I remember when you wanted this chair. You mentioned how lovely it would be to curl up with a baby and sit outside in your garden. Here you are not only with the chair, but a baby too.
    I love the picture of Eleanor examining a little piece of nature in her hand.

    My favorite photo is the one with Eleanor and the dog. Nothing better than growing up with a doggie in the house. (Who needs siblings!–I’m an only child, obviously, who grew up with two mini schnauzers; they were my best friends.)

    sweet and delightful photos!

    Oh Eleanor is so lovely – just like her mother. I love your blog and happen upon it from time to time. … My daughter’s name is Lucia; she is 13 months, close to Miss E, I do believe.

    PS. Love Eleanor’s Liberty outfit!

    Love her liberty outfit ~ sooooo cute!!

  83. peggy Avatar

    Eleanor is inheriting her mother’s chicness (is that a word?). She’s too adorable. Love the outfit, love her next to the fab pillow. And the photo of her peaking out the hole is too cute. I’d be tempted to blow that one up huge. Probably difficult to decide which pics to blow up, they’re all so cute! Can you do a shot of her in an astronaut outfit one day? I see her in an astronaut outfit with a daisy in her hand.
