Am I too critical of these Xmas photos?

    You're being too picky I totally understand where you're coming from, but you're the only one who knows what you would have preferred to see. Looking at them as a third party, I think they're precious and would never think, "oh but they'd be so much cuter without the lace thing and if the bow was higher." Just for comparison sake (not REALLY the same thing, but...), I had my wedding dress tailored specifically so that I could add cap sleeves, and had them sewn and resewn so I could drape them over my shoulders, not wear them vertically like straps. Then, the day of, I totally forgot to wear them the way I'd wanted to, and it bugged me for the longest time looking at pictures and I was so angry at myself! I wore them just like straps! But all anybody had to say was how beautiful I looked, not "but you'd look better if the sleeves were worn further down."

    She is SO adorable!

    Aww!!! They are SO adorable and Harper is precious! I totally understand about being picky and understand how you'd want it a different way, but the people that get these cards/see these pics, will never have think about anything other than how freaking adorable and precious she is!

    They can edit the lace out right? I like the shot but dont like the lace. I would edit it into a different fabric

    they are so pretty!

    maybe the photographer was worried you'd be stressing about the peppermint being on her bare skin? Although they can usually hide any barriers they use, but it would be hard with peppermints rolling around to keep her stable? Anyway, I like the swaddle!

    Love the announcement! And the peppermint idea is fabulous!!

    I can totally understand you being picky because in the end, they are YOUR pics. With that said, I think they're adorable and I wouldn't have noticed the headband. I also would've preferred bare-chested but the lace swaddle is super sweet.

    I know everyone has personal preferences, but I would absolutely die from the cuteness of that announcement if I got it in the mail! I think the photo is gorgeous, and she looks so adorable!

    I'm jealous! We paid a fortune for ours and they weren't near this cute. Everyone still loved them but I was disappointed so I know how you feel!

    Omg they're so cute! I was quite bummed too with how many of olivias NB pictures came out, lots of props and kind of goofy but nothing I can do now!

    Awwwww! You guys are so so sweet!

    Thank you so much for the sweet compliments on Harper! You made my day!

    I wish I could reply individually but I am in the middle of BF Bootcamp so she's constantly feeding while we work to erase her nipple confusion- so I feel like I never have 2 hands to type! I have to chicken-peck repllies out with my free hand- lol

    @PrincessBaby: Maybe it's just me... butttt I actually LOVE the headband ON her forehead, because it's like she's a present!! Get it? All wrapped up, with a bow on top! I think it's gorgeous, and if you hadn't said anything I would've totally thought the headband was purposely placed on her forehead, and she was wrapped like a present. Especially b/c the announcement says "our holiday miracle," and she's born in December!! I absolutely adore it! Congrats momma!

    @PrincessBaby: SO flipping cute! I love the announcement that you decided on!! I see what you mean about the headband but I never would've thought about it on my own. And I like the lace! She's a beautiful girl

    OMG, LOOOOOOOOOOVE the card you made! Adorable!!! I like Tiny Prints a lot as well as Minted. The cards are pricey but such good quality. LOVE the peppermint idea. So stinking cute!!! Harper is a beauty, just like mumma!

    SO so so sweet. I get what you're saying about noticing little things, but over time you will stop caring about that kind of stuff. H is a DOLL!!!
