I’ve been coveting these Free People baggy boyfriend overalls for a while now, but I just can’t pull the trigger on anything full priced!! So…I do what I often do. After scouring eBay first of course. I looked in my own closet to see what I could make out of what I already had!
Funny story about these overalls is that I had this exact pair in the 90’s!! SO bummed I gave them away at some point, but found them again a few years ago thrifting! They’ve always been a weird length on me though. Not long, but not cropped enough. I’ve thought about chopping them SO many times, but could never pull the trigger. Until…the Free People overalls. Then….Snip snip! And I LOVE THEM!!
I’m washing them as I type, and I can’t wait for them to get more frayed at the bottom!
And..another flashback to the 90’s and honestly 70’s (!!), these Dr. Scholls sandals! I may have them in white and black too… 🙂
Sometimes (ok, everyday) I just want to eat her UP!!!
One of my favorite things about working on these posts when she’s at school. I get to stare at her cuteness and miss her!
Maya got this frisbee at the YMCA “Healthy Kids Day”, and we finally went out and practiced.
Two posts I did in them before chopping here and here. GAH! Little Maya in these!!!
On me…
It was SUPER windy on this evening. Maya was actually waiting in the car by the side of the road.
Then, she came out, but insisted I hold her the whole time because she was too cold…
LOVE this next one!!!!
Ok, I love ALL these!!!
I could lie and say this next one was a super sweet shot of her holding my face, but…
Another favorite!! The symmetrical nerd in me loves how my leg mimics the curve of the grass!
I convinced her to get down on her own for a few saying she could dance to keep warm…
DYING!! 
She clearly gets into it when she dances 🙂
One minute…super sweet looking shot (above), then….reality.
And….then she decides to look down my shirt???
She REEEEEAALLY gets into her dancing haha.
This cozy cardigan? Handknit by my dad! He made it from himself, and then it was in one of their “donation bags” that I intercepted haha. SO GLAD-love it!!
Her face!! DYING!
Ok, I’m dying NOW! At the moment…well… My remote trigger had died, so taking these was with the self timer. And, I kept running back and forth and looking down…
Oh, but then….I wore her down!!!
And these next few are some of my FAVORITES of us!!
LOOOOOVE!!
She was trying to capture bugs that were flying in the sunlight!
And lastly….singing. As she does.
This is what the majority of our outings look like haha. I try to squeeze in pics of us here and there in the break of dog walkers…
She says all the time….
Pretty sure she has the best laugh EVER!
Oh, and this outfit? Totally wish I could pull it off!!
One of the things I’ve always loved capturing…
When she was younger, it always ended in her knocking me over with a hug. Now…she just runs on past…haha.
SUPER MAYA!!!
One of my favorite images I got from this night! Although, with this light..there were a few!
That light?! That laughter? Love…
It’s so funny. I kept asking her if she wanted to blow the dandelions. Again…it’s not our yard or our neighbor’s yard, so go at it, no?! 😉
The downside to this park, is that a lot of people bring their dogs here to run off leash in the attached baseball field. Maya cannot resist a dog, and always wants to run off and play with them. Takes a little while to get her back… So, there are about a kazillion self timed shots of me caller her back haha.
I’m not 100% sure how I found 
LOVE the back on this dress!!
And the twirl factor is off the charts. A total win in Maya’s book 😉 
Riiiiiiight about now, it started raining. Maya’s in this stage where she does NOT like to get her hair wet. As long as she has a hood or an umbrella, she’s totally fine. But she was having NO MORE pictures after this….
So, we headed over to my parents. This is the only real picture I got of her adorable dress ;{
Because…hahaha. Clearly…not in the mood.
After we were leaving, she did her butt dance for them, which always makes her happy 🙂
On me…
