  49. I know I’m late to the party, but I finally got around to seeing your video. I have been blog-slacking this week! I love it. What a great way to introduce yourself to your readers.

    I have to make one.

    Also, my little one has the same bathing suit as your little one. Tutus on little girls are adorable in any form, aren’t they?

      I love tutus on little girls. My daughter wears one all the time.

      I hope you do make a welcome video. I’ve seen some great ones this week and I think they are a perfect addition to an about page.
