52 week project! Week 27

I am behind a week. I did take picture during our family vacation. I am yet to take them off their chips so I can chose one for my weekly picture.

However, here is the picture for this week.

Jon's grandma passed away on June 26th. Although it was expected, it wasn't expected on the day it happened. I think we all felt that she was going to push through. However, God took her in. We had her funeral yesterday. As you can see by her shoes, she was very much Dutch! The funeral matched her just so. I think if she could see from Heaven, she'd been pleased.

52 week project! Week 25

Well. It's been a LONG time since I posted a weekly blog! According to Amy's post, we are on week 25! I think I stopped at week 14 :( There has been a lot of changes in those past 11 weeks. I've been consumed with a new pregnancy that had made me very tired. Plus, I was consumed with my son's baseball season by being the team photographer. So I have been taking the pictures... just not posting them! I will see about getting them posted shortly to try to catch up.

This morning my little girl decided to be lazy. :) She sat up on her knees, and then fell forward and went back to sleep. I just thought the position that she was in was adorable! She had her tush in the air with her feet curled behind her. Our bed sheets are blue so it really didn't go well with her pink and brown jammies. I decided to apply the Warming Filter to give it a sepia look.

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.
