The Simple Things-Baby Madeline


I went over to my parents house on Friday and looked at this baby in the eyes and thought, "it's time that we took some pictures."

From there I just scooped her up and took her upstairs to one of my parents' most prized piece of furniture, Great Grandmother Soules' chair. 

Sometimes we feel that we need to have a fancy space to take a picture. When in reality, sometimes home is the best place. If you came over for a visit, my mom would probably tell you about everything that needs to be remodeled. When in fact, her home is lovely even if nothing ever changed.

It's definitely the simple things that matter and are the best. I honestly believe that Great Grandmother Soules would be proud to have these pictures hanging on her wall of her great-great granddaughter lying in her favorite chair. 


A baby has a special way of adding
JOY in every single day.

  1. Stunning photos! I feel the same way about my great grandma Hazel, our youngest (Avery) has her name (Hazel) as her middle name.

  3. Beautiful pictures, and of course a gorgeous baby! Not time for me to have one yet, but looking at those adorable chubby cheeks makes the anticipation even harder.

    It's called the photo swap. My friend Kendra started it a few months ago and it has just been a blast to do!

  10. So precious! I also love connecting the generations/members of my family by using things that have been passed down, like jewelry or clothes.
