Temple is ONE!

Well, almost!  She'll be ONE in less than two weeks!  I thought it was appropriate since the last blog post was when she was born, that this post have her ONE year pics.  Wow where did the year go!

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!

Hope your year is starting off RIGHT!

Mr. Jack

It is so important to take pictures with your kids. These parents always do such a great job at that. I need to learn from them! Here's a couple that I especially love!

We loved that shot so much we used it in his Birthday announcement, Mom and Dad send out each year!

Love how they not only send all his cute pictures that show his little personality, but they also tell what he's into at three! It's a great documentation!

The Beach

We went to the beach this summer and took a moment to take some pictures. My camera did not operate very well at the beach. First I was scared to take it out because of the humidity and the sand that could scratch the lens. Plus it would take forever for the camera to acclimate from the cold condo to the hot, humid outdoors.

We met Hubby's family there and here are all the cousins!

And just me and the hubs!

I didn't take my camera to the beach every day. I only took it a few times. How cute are these two though? (And I swear I put sunscreen on them every 30-45 minutes despite how red Presley's face looks! It was so hot outside!)

Elliot

This precious little girl brought her parents and had a dandy ol' time. Love 6 month old babies!! Here are some of my fav's from their session!

Update

Wow, I apologize! My absence does not mean I haven't been busy. With pictures, kids, a squeezed-in summer trip to the beach, and growing in the belly region. Not from one too many beers (I wish!), but because we are expecting No. 3 - another girl, we're naming Temple! Summer and the insane heat basically took over and now that we are back to school (one in kindergarten, one in preschool two days a week) I have a brief moment (because I'm due in less than two weeks) to catch up! I blame it on a serious case of the...lazys, summer-heat-gone-to-my-brain, time-got-away-from-me, no-bedtime-for-the-girls-all-summer (and no downtime for mama, so therefore I fell into bed myself), and finally, my-firstborn-was-going-to-kindergarten-and-I-savored-every-last-minute... Excuse me while I get a tissue.

So take your pick on any of those excuses reasons. Anywho, what better post than to share these pictures of this sweet little baby named, Piper! Love that name!

And her precious announcement!

Yes, she was born in May and we took these right after she was born and I'm JUST now posting them. I was trying NOT to look at that date and calculate all that. But I had to look. Oh my! Did I mention that I'm pregnant? I've used the heck out of that excuse! And I'm about to use the one, "I have a newborn." By the way, we are so not ready for the change a newborn brings. And yet, I'm SOOO ready.
