Hope you’ve had a chance to peep our best of 2016 baby showers and best kids birthday parties this week. (If not, open some tabs and get cozy!) Next up in our best-of week is the much awaited #cakeletnewbornsnack. These shoots reminded us time and time again just how much GOOD came out of this year. Beautiful, peaceful tiny humans and lots of new mama love. Need we say more?
