My Baby {goof ball}

January 29, 2010

My baby recently turned four.  There are days when I cannot believe how quickly the time has passed.  Days where I recall the time not so long ago where he would fit in my lap and suck his thumb, when he was less independent, when he relied on me to make his days perfect. 

Then there are more recent days.  Days where he has me giggling because he says things like, “If I keep sneezing, I’m going to turn into a chicken” or “When I grow up and turn 34, I can watch movies about magic and bad guys.”  Days where he shocks me with his sincerity by saying things like, “The world looks beautiful today Mommy.”  Days where I look at Luke and see myself and my husband in him and think we’re doing a pretty good job with this whole parenting gig.  Of course I miss the days of cooing, tiny clothing, baby drool and toothless smiles.  But days like this….when he is visibly happy and comfortable in our home……being goofy, wearing ski goggles and a cowboy hat at the dinner table…..days like this make me look forward to what he has up his sleeve for tomorrow.  I’m sure it will be nothing short of amazing.

Baby Holden {7 days}

January 23, 2010

Baby Holden made plans to stay awake for his big photo debut.  But after some cuddles from mommy and daddy and a quick go around in the swing, he couldn’t fight sleep any longer.  He dozed off for the sweet, dreamy photos momma had been hoping for.  And check out this hat!  Grandma lovingly knitted the little rainbow elf hat before Holden arrived in this world.  Congratulations “S” Family - your son is amazing!

Lillian {9 days new}

January 17, 2010

Just look at this little angel.  Baby Lillian is an absolute beauty and perfect in every way.  She did phenemenal for her photo debut and let me move and wiggle her all different ways!  Her mama could barely stand to watch as she’d break into tears each time I posed her little “monkey”.  Thank you for inviting me to your home and for the giggles.

Baby Adalynn {six months}

January 13, 2010

How cute is this little one?!?!?  She definitely made me work hard for smiles today - such a serious little girl.  Although I did tell Mommy and Daddy that sometimes the greatest photos are not of baby smiling, or looking at the camera.  Some of the best photos are those of your little one just being themselves, exploring and taking it all in.  Baby Adalynn was an absolute delight.  She rocked her photo session without a whimper and made the cutest little squeaks and squeals.  Thank you for chosing me to work with your family.  Enjoy your sneak peek!

p.s.  I’m starting something new here on the blog.  If this family receives 10 or more comments on their blog post, they will receive a complimentary 5×7.  Be kind and give ‘em some love!!!
