Your Mama wore this knitted dress when she was a baby, Saskia. And she was photographed on that bed, in that very same room. The beautiful dress was lovingly made by her Granny, your great-grandmother. She would have adored you.
Happy Mothers Day beautiful Mamas, Mamas-to-be and Mamas one-day-to-be x
Ps. The lovely Bron at Baby Space did a similar post here.
Oh my goodness, Saskia looks SO much like you as a baby!! Hope you've enjoyed your first Mother's Day xx
ReplyDeleteAnd the more photos you look at, the more alike we look! Had a very sweet Mothers Day - breakfast in bed (freshly squeezed OJ and museli, complete with a little vase and a flower), a naughy pressie, crepes for morning tea and lunch with my dear Mum and MIL. Pretty perfect actually ;) Hope yours was a goodie x
DeleteSaskia is such a pretty little girl and how lovely for her to be able to wear the same dress as you. She looks so much like you. I hope you had a wonderful first Mother's Day. x
ReplyDeleteThanks Catherine! There are also photos of K as a baby and you can see Saskia in those too. Suppose that isn't that weird though! x

ReplyDeleteYes, although I was a quite a bit skinnier Mum said - and you can see that in the photograph! I think it's funny that we had the same hairdo :)
DeleteGasp! She is the image of you as a bub! Happy first Mama's Day x
ReplyDeleteP.S. That first photo in your 7 months post is so so gorgeous. Happy 7 months little lady ;)
Oh I love that one too. Those inflatable cheeks!
DeleteThe photo comparison is such a fun thing to do. Will have to post some of K as a baby too.

(Hoping you had a happy first Mama's Day too)
I love this, Saskia looks gorgeous in your knitted dress. x
ReplyDeleteShe does look pretty beautiful, we think! I'm glad we dug it out too....might get a bit of wear with the chilly weather. Special occasions, of course!
Deletex
Awwww. She looks so pretty in your knitted dress. And I agree with everyone else that has commented...you two are so alike!
ReplyDeleteHappy mothers day x
It makes me wonder what she'll look like as she grows...will we keep that alikeness? (ooh, is that bad grammar?!)
Deletex
Oh, that is the lovliest thing. Beautiful babies, the pair of you. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks lovely...but come on, what about the late 70s bedspread?!

eeeep! miss saskia is beyond adorbs sitting up all straight-backed like that in your gorgeous dress. and yes, you two are absolutely two peas in a pod. love this post.(oh, and thanks for the mention!)
ReplyDeleteOh yes, the lady pose! Kills me, that straight back. People always say they can see we have the same lips, even without looking at photos of her as a baby - funny cupid's bow.
DeleteIsn't it lovely to have a special dress to pass down? It is seriously the ONLY piece of clothing my Mum kept from 2 girls! And our baby/toddler wardrobes would now be vintage gold. Boo hoo.

Wow. Like mother, like daughter. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThe dress is exquisite. Your grandmother is a talented lady.
Thanks Jaclyn. It is so beautifully soft too. I love the little sleeves and scalloped edging. Such a treasure x
DeleteYou two look exactly the same! So cute. Kellie xx
ReplyDeleteI can see it now with the photo comparison, but before I just thought, oh I can see we have the same lips, but found it really hard to see me in her...Did you see similarities in baby photos between you and Olive? x
DeleteI'm just saying the same thing as everybody else, but honestly, you look EXACTLY the same! Such wonderful photographs, and a gorgeous little dress!
ReplyDeleteIt really is a lovely dress. One to pass down for sure. And I love that it's a handmade dress too...Thanks Jessica x
Deletecuteness x 2!
ReplyDeleteit looks beautiful on her!
