I think this is what I'm getting. The skirt and the red striped top will be Christmas Eve and possible for her holiday card. The plaid dress is going to be for thanksgiving. I can't decide if I should do rust or yellow tights or if I should do the dark gray tights we ready have. I also can't decide on which pj's and if I really need a play dress.
I want the reindeer pajamas for both, the snowy Sweden sweaters (black for Theo, red for Max) and the red dress for me. Buuuut I don't want to spend $300 right now lol H would have a fit since I just spent a week complaining we are spending too much.
So I guess I'll wait and see what Gap does. Our pics are November 1 so I have a little while.
Ooh, maybe I'll put theo in the romper...he's not too old, right?
Not too old! Do it!
Couldn't resist. Romper (in black), sweater, dress, and pajamas ordered! The dress and pajamas were full price so I could use the code. You just need to order more thedahliharpa!
Now, do I wear brown boots or black boots with the red dress?

Off topic, but can I ask who you're using for your photos?
Of course! J Davis photography. If you FB friend me I've liked his page so you can find him that way. He did ours last year for an AMAZING price because he's just starting out. Some from last fall:
He did ours in Manassas at a battlefield but I know my BFF had him do her engagement shots and he was willing to go to the city, if that matters. Last year he was $100 for the session and he gave us all the images on a cd (maybe 25?). I think he's raised his prices but they should still be reasonable.
My cousin is not a professional, but she takes amazing photos, too. She will probably do some at Thanksgiving for us. She did our cousin's engagement pics this weekend and Theo's newborn pics. I'll attach those in a second.

Thanks for the recommendations! I've had the hardest time finding someone in the area that gives you digital files and who my husband will agree to price-wise. Your family photos came out great! And I love the images your cousin captured. They're gorgeous.
I am very underwhelmed this year. This is the only dress/tights combo that I kind of like, but I don't think I like it enough to buy it. I guess I will find a Christmas dress somewhere else. I like some of the PJs, but nothing will ever compare to last year's PJs with the dogs! Attachment Deleted
Grumble grumble...some of the reds are actually a burnt orange color in person! So those are out for me. I'll try to be more specific once I get back on the website.
Ok ALL the Norse Star reds are actually orange . Sucks! What were they thinking? I loved the Icelandic in person, but my HA didn't have the Cozy Up collection yet which was a bummer. I don't like drop waisted dresses on G so Snowy Sweden is not my thing. I did see a yellow and gray fair isle baby romper in person I didn't notice on the website. And a girl's dress I loved in person but also didn't notice online.

Hmm now I'm concerned about the drop waist. Maybe I should buy two of the bsby dresses.
