Nice day to play and jump

WASN'T THE BEST PHOTO BECAUSE THE HAT GOT IN THE WAY OF HER EYES, HOWEVER, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PHOTOSHOP IT OUT AND JUST CREATED MY OWN PRESET.  ALSO DEBATED IF I SHOULD POST IT.  
NOTICE BOTH FEET ARE OFF THE GROUND!  
YES I LOVE MATILDA JANE, BUT SO DOES MY DAUGHTER NOW AND SINCE SHE'S SO PETITE, EVERYTHING IS BIG, BUT WE MANAGE BY ROLLING HERE, TUCKING THERE!  I WASN'T GOING TO PUT THE SCARF ON BUT SINCE IT HAS POM POMS (OR BALLS) LIKE KIRA SAY'S SHE HAD TO WEAR IT.

A FEW FUN SHOTS FROM YESTERDAY, NOW I REALIZE THAT I NEED THIS 50MM LENS, BADLY!  I WOULD GET BETTER BOKEH AND CLEARER PHOTOS.  

CRITIQUES WELCOME (on photos only)!

    Ok, I just need to say that the first photo took my breath away!
    Kira's sweetness and your photo!
    I LOVE IT! I personally think it captures the essence of childhood and it looks professional to me!
    Not crisp.... soft, artistic and beautiful! It is my favorite photograph of yours so far! I think it is wonderful. And you weren't going to post it! HA!
    I need to learn what you have been doing in photoshop! WOW!
    Love all her MJ stuff!

    WOW Ivy!!! What GREAT photo's!
    I don't know what one I like best. They are wonderful. I love the cute one of her face yet the 2nd photo of her jumping where you cannot see her face is simply beautiful!

    Oh, these are so cute!! I just love it when you can catch them in action - especially both feet off the ground. How fun!

    Thanks for all the sweet comments on this post!

    I can't stop editing now:))

    If only I knew what I was doing here, perhaps I could explain to you all what I did.

    Love the Matilda clothing line! Kira looks fantastic in that outfit, even if you say it is big on her. And yay to jumping!
