Temple Adeline

Here are pictures of my littlest baby. Here's her announcement (except it had scalloped edges once it was printed). She's almost 3 months old already! And as sweet as can be!

My friend Michelle let me borrow this vintage stroller that actually belonged to her grandmother. It was old and perfect!

Here are a couple more pictures that I loved but didn't make it on the announcement.

And one more!

Baby Gage

I drove north to meet Baby Gage a few weeks ago, and now that the announcements have been mailed out, I get to share all the pictures here on the ol' blog.

First, I loved this one of sweet, little (but not so little, if you check out his birth weight below) Gage in his nursery lying in his crib. His nursery was awesome! His mama, Sara, knows how to decorate! Her whole house was inspirational actually!

Baby Gage slept for us a little at the beginning and then not some much until we went outside and he was out! And his birth announcement, which might be my favorite yet! (See Tina Parker's My Lil Creations)

Thanks so much, Sara and Carl! Hope you invite me back soon, with or without my camera!!

P.S. Can I just say, I love big babies. I was a big baby myself at 9 lbs, 15 oz. and my first, Presley was a shocking (to me anyway) 9 lbs, 2 oz . I layed off the sweets during my second pregnancy and Teagan was 8 lbs 14 oz (saved myself 4 oz, whoohoo).

Henlee and Bradly, and big sister Ella

More twins! But this time it was a boy and a girl! Big sister couldn't have been more proud!

And their sweet announcement!

Baby Finn

Baby Finley made his debut and I met him at two weeks old. Although we got a couple shots where he looked like he was sleeping, it was merely a long blink! This baby didn't want to miss a thing!! He was so good and just watched us while we moved him about and positioned him this way and that!

It was such a pleasure! Here's his birth announcement!



Thanks Atok Family!!

Baby Lila

As you can see, there was an influx of babies around here! (So you can imagine my baby fever! But I'm waiting patiently on hubby to say it's again time to procreate.)

Lila is now five weeks already, but when she came for her first photo shoot, she was a mere six days old. My youngest subject to date (besides my own). And we got sooo many cute ones!! This was my favorite hands down!

And her announcement shows my next four favorites!

She's still just as sweet as can be! Crystal, thanks again for letting me get my baby fix and take pictures of lil Lila Grace!

Baby Harrison

Baby Harrison came to see me when she was about 3 months old. She gave us curious looks, she gave us big smiles, she cuddled with mom and dad, and then she took a little nap! Mom and Dad couldn't give her enough kisses! Baby Harrison took advantage of some of my products and purchased some mini-accordion brag books for 3 Mother's Day gifts!

Here's her birth announcement:

And the back:

I could take pictures of sleeping babies ALL DAY LONG!! A couple more of my favorites!

Thanks so much, Jennifer, Kevin and Baby Harrison!!

Leopard Fun

I had been itching to use these fun leopard print papers and when I saw these precious outfits, I had totally designed their one year announcement in my head! Isi and Oli's mama loves sending cards out more than I do! She sent a birth announcement, a 9 month photo card, and this 1 year card! I know she made lots of friends and family smile!

P.S. I think I saw arboretum staff repainting the awesome grungy blue rod iron black. I wanted to scream "NOOOOO!" But I refrained. I'm sure black will be nice for pictures too...

Gerber Daisy Fun!

Here are a few more pictures of Taylor from her recent session. Such a beautiful girl! These were some of my favorites of her from the session! I decided to jazz them up a bit while I had some time on my hands. It's a fun way to showcase pictures and album pages!

Presley's birthday invitation

Here is Presley's 2nd birthday invitation. I looked up from my busy days and realized I had to get them made, printed and mailed out! So we got our swim suit on and went out in the back and had a mini photo shoot with some sunglasses that matched her swim suit!



I'm hoping she'll enjoy the spray park during her party!

Mr. Hunter, birthday boy

Next month, Hunter is going to be one year old! I'm sure Carole and James would agree that the past year flew by. With life going by so quickly, it makes me appreciate the importance of pictures even more. Pictures take you back... Things I hope to remember when looking back at these pictures at a later date is the way Hunter would lighten up when Carole would sing "the itsy bitsy spider" and "elmo's world", the cautious little boy who wanted to hold tight to his mama's hand when standing, and his beautiful wide open smile! I enjoyed taking these pictures and making his St. Patrick's Day themed birthday invitation. Thanks for the opportunity, Carole!
