Really important earth shattering question.

Haha, not really. This is probably the most minor issue anyone has ever posted about.

So I am doing those number stickers for the months to take monthly pics of Benjamin.  I did the 1st month in a white onesie. Well, today is his 2 month b-day.  Should I stick with a white onesie or just put it over the outfit he has on today?  I can't decide if the consistency of the white onesie would be nice or if it would be cute to look back and see his adorable clothes as he grows.

When I did hazels month pics I changed her outfits, but I didn't do the stickers. I think the stickers look best on a solid color onesie. Maybe add fun socks and a hat.

I did a white ones for each month, but I also only made it to 7 months

A white onesie would be nice but definitely not necessary.  I think it would be easier not to change clothes before the picture and just stick it on his current outfit.  So either way should be fine.

Well, I didn't do the stickers and kind of kicked myself.  We did take the photos in the same spot and added a stuffed animal for each additional month.  I did however always make sure that I put C in my fave outfit at the time.  Now I'm really glad I did b/c I miss some of those!  So, even though the consistency of the white is nice, I vote for favorite outfit.

I don't think a onesie is necessary, BUT I do like less clothes on the littles so you can really see the changes!    It will be cute no matter what though. 

FWIW, we just did a piece of paper with the month written in Sharpie.  Klassy, I know.  haha

I did that too for A, but someone bought me the stickers for this one! They are pretty cute. The one issue with the paper was that Alexander would always take it and play with it before I was done taking pics.

I vote for white onsie if you haven't done it already!

When I did this with B, I just did a different solid colored onesie each time. Sometimes white, sometimes blue, red, etc.

Hope that helps! Can't believe he's 2 months already! Has the time flown? When are you going back to work?

This!

I really liked having a consistent look for comparison purposes.  We did a gray onesie with a printed paper since we didn't have the stickers.

This was me too, A always wore my favorite outfits on his "month" birthday since I didn't have stickers either. and I didn't even think about writing it on a chalkboard or paper.

I say go back and Photoshop that in there

Maybe do both for a few months and see which you like better? I take a crap ton of photos though, so this would be no more effort for me

Late to the game... what did you decide?! And, I want to see said picts!

I went with the onesie he was wearing, because it was a pretty solid bold stripe. I think I will put him in either solid color onesie's or big stripes for the pics. When I went back and looked at A's pictures, I had a nice time remembering all those outfits, so I decided to stick with real clothes. Also it was cold in his room, so I felt a little bad stripping him down to his onesie. He was in such a good mood!

I will update with the pics tomorrow...I accidentally left the camera in his room and he's in bed already.
