Oh my!!! I love Mari pics.. she is so beautiful Holli!! I love her smile and her eyes really are amazing.

[DebbieJ]

She is precious!

I took a peek at the other ones. Love the one of Liam wearing her in the Maya and she's looking up at him.

She is a real cutie. My 2nd DS had legs like those! ( oh the fluff is gorgeous too)

[rrosen]

That face could never be SPAM!

She is so sweet! And the fluff is TDF!

[ribbit1019]

Oh how gorgeous she is Holli!!!
And I LOVE that wish come true dipe...

I love everything! But that "Wish come true" cover is perfect.

[mudder17]

Yay!!! I feel so much better! Yes, I freely admit, I'm a Mari addict. :P

Seriously, these pictures are so cute! And those diapers are bee-yu-tiful! Especially, the "wish come true". That one is just heart melting. :D Her smile always brightens up my day and I've been fighting an awful stomach bug, so I really needed a pick me up. :)

So are those pictures of the "other guy" Liam's brother?

Thanks, Holli! You made my night!

ETA: However did you get her to keep those sunglasses on?!

Thanks for the Mari fix- she is sooo cute. That dandelion dipe is tooo sweet.

And I love her clothes, so sweet - we need to see more of her in reality layette. Love her in Naartjie.......:)

[holliam]

Awww, thanks for thinking my girly is as adorable as we do. We're completely unbiased, of course. :P

Yep, the other guy is Liam's brother! Good guess. The 8-ish looking girl is his daughter. She's Moroccan Irish. ;) The older folks are his mom and dad. Mari was a bit stunned by all these folks showing up on our doorstep but she handled it well. My parents, sister, nephew arrive in a couple of weeks. Then another sister in July, then another niece in September. We're spacing them out. lol

Naartjie fits her so well, and MIL lives right near Valley Fair so I've hired her as personal shopper. :D

Oh, the sunglasses and hat. She took to them right away and now when she sees Liam get them out, she is so excited b/c she knows it means they are going on a walk. It's so funny. She's like a puppy seeing his leash. :D

Mari is 20lbs 12oz officially today and let's hope she starts slimming soo and doesn't grow out of all her BBH covers. I still have to get pics of a lot of them!

Honestly, she is such a laid back kid as long as her natural patterns and schedules aren't too messed up, she just kicks back and goes along with whatever crazy thing we do. Seriously the only time we have heard her cry is when we forget to give her teething tablets before sleeping and she wakes up screaming in pain. It's so heartbreaking. Otherwise, she is really a pretty happy kid. Her personality has really blossomed over the past week or 2 too.

My sisters keep telling me how lucky we are, and we think we are the luckiest folks on the planet for oh so many reasons!

Wowza....cute baby, lovely family, to drool for dipes!

[nohomama]

That dandelion butt is adorable! The cover ain't bad either. :)

[tarahsolazy]

Such a sweet girl! I love chubby-legged babies! (Makes me want a girlie and some BBH covers to put her in!)

[ismommy]

Holli
She is beautiful. I love the photos of her and all her fluff. My favorite is the wish come true.

LOL, this is one time I love being blamed! But I definitely have to thank Holli again for sharing. :)

[steph2003]

I'd love to munch on one of those thighs! Beautiful diapers for a beautiful girlie!

[brittone2]

Holli, what a charmer Mari is!! She looks like this sweet little pixie in those dipes :)

I love love love the Wish Come True dipe...how adorable! She is just a precious and obviously well-loved little girlie :)

[papal]

Holli,
i just wanted to add that after seeing the knit striped clear naartjie dress on Mari, i decided to get it for Leela too.. it is now on sale for $5.99 so that pushed me over the edge.. heehee... I didn't love it till I saw Mari in it and then I HAD to have it. Leela has similar colouring to Mari and i think the clear colour is just perfect for both of them!!

[holliam]

LOL! That's so funny! Jeweltones just look spectacular on their skin tone I think! I think I have more turquoise and purple than anything else for her!

So, what else do I need for Mari then? ;)

Holli

[papal]

Holli,
you MUST MUST MUST get the Lawn Waterflower and Drift Dress with the matching bottoms in SPEARMINT for Mari. This is my most favourite outfit this summer. They are both on the sale page.

And this is totally random, but this dress is one of my favourites on Leela... the colour looks great on her skin tone:

[todzwife]

She is SO beautiful!!

[holliam]

Oh! You'll be proud! I apparently have the drift dress in spearmint already! :D

I don't know all the names and colors.. I'm like a young jedi Naartjie shopper. MIL brought 8 outfits last week and I had bought about 5 or 6 when I was there in April. Not being able to just order things online is making me crazy!

Holli

[papal]

Excellent!!! I hope you have the matching bottoms for the dress too.. that adds a certain something to the outfit and if you ever want to resell, always nice to have a set to sell.
heehee.
Your MIL ROCKS! How nice of her!

[pritchettzoo]

It's a real shame y'all don't take many pictures of her. ;)

Those are amazing dipes! And what a cute model! I love the embroidered flowers on the BBH. They look almost real.

Mari is so unbeliveably cute!! Thanks so much for sharing these pictures Holli. You all look lovely and happy.

[jec2]

Oh holli, they are beautiful. I love seeing all these pics of your little bug :)

I want that cover with the dandelions on it!!!!!!!!! Finn goes mad for blowing those. he calls them bubbles and we wander the neighborhood looking for them. I must go look at bbhive now.
