cutest kids contest!

contest ends sept 14th at midnight!

the days seem to fly by...

I'm having one of those days...were you look at your kids and realize how quickly time goes by. So instead of crying, I sneak around taking picture of them as they sleep :) Must soak in every detail!!

...don't even get me started on my older one, she just turned 3 monday!

what do you do with all those left over balloons?...blow them all up and leave them in your kids room as a surprise when they wake up :) Happy Birthday, Maddie!

ps...i got this idea from one of my clients! Brilliant!

...someone just turned 3!

This year we did a watermelon-themed picnic party, which turned out sooo cute BUT {note to self} a 3 year old wants to pick the theme of her own party. Whoops :) I was unaware your children grow up faster than you can keep track of. We had a BLAST and will be renting an inflatable next year too!

Thank you J Family!

alright...so for those of you who say, "it must be nice having a camera around your kids all the time"...this is why I say "not really." I mean, YES it is nice to have a camera and know how to use it IN CASE the opportunity arrives where I'd love to get a nice shot of the girls..BUT that opportunity doesn't normally present itself very often..here is why.

ps...these are straight out of camera (no editing done), so don't judge ;)


Picture 1: I asked her to lay on her tummy and smile at the camera...basic enough, right?

Picture 2: "eyes open maddie!"

Picture 3: "chin on your hands and smile"

Picture 4: "please scoot over a little, so i don't see the wall behind the backdrop"

Picture 5: "I can't see your face, show me that pretty smile"

Picture 6: "im going to tickle you, if you don't smile"

FINALLY..one worth keeping...all joking aside, this was picture 52 in the bunch! :)

Final picture: edited and retouched
