perhaps i should clothe my child more often?

We had some friends over for a mommy/baby play date the other day. It was fun watching the kids play together while my sweet friend and I caught up.

It wasn't until after our friends were gone and I was looking through the few photos that I snapped, when I realized that I hadn't even put Levi in clothes that day.

As usual, there he was in just his diaper with his rolly-polly tummy perched on top.

Yes, near-nudey baby was on a date with a well-dressed older woman.

{is she trying to hand him a sock here? i wouldn't be surprised.}

On another note, why is my child the same size as a girl five months his senior?

Dear friends, aren't you grateful for friends that you don't have to try and impress?

relaxed, secure, and grateful,

I think it is adorable when babies are all dressed up, or not dressed at all...they're just adorable! Aren't playdates without cares the best?!

We are living in a frozen wasteland at present. I am soooo envious of you right now - I'd love to just let him go in a diaper and onesie, or just a diaper. But I know that in a few short months it will be so hot here I'll be longing for cooler weather...so I'd better just stop and smell the roses (yea, what roses....nothing can live in these below zero temperatures. lol!!!!)

At January 5, 2011 at 6:28 AM , Pam said...: Oops...that's supposed to say 'neglect' to clothe my children. Oh my--I really don't EVER neglect them! {can you say "mommy brain"?}

Friends you can just "let it all hang out" with are the best! Back home I had some, but here I have just one really great friend. I love that I don't have to tidy the playroom before she and her son come over. I don't have to put on makeup or pretend I'm not exhausted by my active little lady. I feel so lucky she's in my life!
