52 week project! Week 14

I had so much fun taking pictures in our hotel room in Vegas. The room was filled with brightly colored furniture and decor.

I have more pictures from our trip that I will post on my personal blog.

This picture is of Shelby's feet. Baby girl fell asleep after playing in the pool. Playing is so hard to do :)

52 week project! Week 13

I actually took this picture today. It technically doesn't fall within the 13th week.

I took this picture at Marisa's mom's house. I just feel in love with Lydia's furniture! She has the most adorable chairs. I took a couple of shots in between fun and games. This one was my favorite.

52 week project! Week 12

She is such a flirt! Shelby was looking so cute hiding her face in her hands as she was trying to fall asleep. Once I got out the camera, she started flirting with me. We must have stayed up another 30 mins just taking pictures. I don't get great lighting, neither natural nor bulb, in the living room. But I thought that the noise with a b&w conversion made this picture stand out.

52 week project! Week 11

I am sure I am really early for my week 11 posting. I foresee having absolutely no life this week; therefore, I thought I'd jump ahead. I don't want to miss a thing!

I took this one at my son's baseball game. It gets cold around 5pm! It was 55 degrees!!! I really don't know how I survived Tennessee.

Needless to say, I wrapped Shelby in a blanket. The picture opportunity was too perfect!

52 week project! Week 10

My big brown eyes!

Really. She got them from me.

Her daddy has green eyes that I was so hoping for her to have.

But she was blessed with these beauties.

It's her trademark now.

I saw a similar picture on a flyer that was in my mailbox. Thought I would try to capture a pose with a nice colorful background. I grabbed a blanket that I am still quilting for her.

Something simple, yet fun.

1/2 Year Old Beauty!

Here are a few pictures I took of my little half-year old baby girl! :)

I just enjoy taking pictures of her. She is so photogenic.

Both my kids are. I don't know where they get that from :)

Shelby's 1/2 yr. old birthday dinner. She LOVES carrots!

Yes, mommy put the wings on upside-down.

Little Leaguer

Here are a few pics of my mini session with my little leaguer. He is such a great sport! What a natural behind the camera, he came up with most of these poses by himself!

Waiting for Opening Day to begin.

His serious face. :)

His true smile! :)

This was his idea!

This was also his idea! I like it!

This is my idea (that I got from Marisa, a fellow photographer)

This was another one of Chris' ideas! See, he is a natural!

All out of ideas :) He was tired. Don't blame him. You can only take so many orders from mom.
