Hudsyn - 12 months

June 29, 2008
Hudsyn came in for her 12 month session tonight. She wasn’t the happiest camper with a few of the things we tried. But how darling are these pictures? She is so adorable. Don’t worry mom we got more….I will be done soon with them. Enjoy these for now.




How adorable is Miss Michaela? She was all smiles and happy when she came in for her pictures tonight. She did so well, mom even said she didn’t get a nap earlier. She was so happy. We had so much fun. Thanks for coming. I’ll have the rest done soon. Enjoy your peek.

Pool Fun

June 23, 2008

We decided to get Ethan a pool to play in this summer. He loves it. Although that water is freezing he still gets in. I did put in several pots full of HOT water before he got in the other day. Everytime I say “SWIM, SWIM, SWIM” he will get on his belly and swim around. It is so funny. I just taught him to get home his belly a couple weeks ago in the tub. So he thinks it is pretty cool that he can float.



He was being so silly playing in the pool. I used that strainer to get the bugs and leaves out of the pool. He thought it would be cute to put on his head like a hat. So funny.

10 on Tuesday…

June 17, 2008

I got this idea from life in motion blog…I love her blog. I love watching her kids grow….and she is a fantastic photographer that lives in Austin, TX. So if you live there….contact her.
So here is my first try at 10 on Tuesday….let’s see if i can make it to 10.

1. Ethan has started counting….he loves it. He only gets 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2…..he knows 3 and 4, but doesn’t know the order. Just 1, 2. It is so cute. he goes around the house saying 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2.

2. We have spent the last week teething. Oh will they just show up already. He didn’t eat for days. He wouldn’t. I tried everything. Good think he loves his Organic Whole Milk, because he got tons of that. When he gets teeth, he gets fever, fussy, and won’t eat. Yesterday was the first day he ate a meal in like 5 days. Thanks to my mom, which leads me to #3.

3. He will only eat for my parents…what is up with that? He always eats good for them. What am I doing wrong? And why can’t I get my child to eat anything? So frustrating. I can’t stand it.

4. I have been sick since Friday night. I hate being sick. Cold symptoms, cough, runny nose, I don’t think I have a fever at all, so that’s good.

5. Ever have Jello Jigglers? Ethan loves them. My mom introduced them to him….and he loves them. So cute to watch him eat them.

6. Josh finished painting the basement last night. WHOOO HOOO. Thanks hun. I can’t wait to get the couch back down there, and get things finished.

7. What is a post without pictures…..??? This one…for today anyway.

8. I went to the Amway Grand Plaza on Friday night for out Resident Graduation Party at work. We had a really good time. It was nice to get out with the girls too.

9. I would love to do some photo sessions outside with some clients. So call and book today if you want to do a session outdoors at a park or another location. I will do half off the session fee. So call or email me today.

10. I have been so itchy all morning (head and neck) UGH….it won’t go away. I know probably to much info but hey I needed 10 things….LOL….maybe I am just being freaky about it…but man…I can’t stand it anymore.

Well how fun was that….I hope you all enjoy….Wait to see what I can come up with next week.

Mindy & Jacob…

June 7, 2008
My friend Mindy wanted to get some pictures of her son Jacob. He is 20 months old. I found this park that I wanted to go take a look at so we headed there. It is a great park, but it has rained so much the last few days it was pretty wet and mushy. But we got a few cute ones. I definately will be going there again.




7 days…..

June 5, 2008
Tonight I got to photograph Little Miss K, she was born 7 days ago. She was precious, but was very vocal when I was there. We did get so cute ones of her in between her being very vocal and sleeping. Thanks Matt and Jen. Congratulations. I will have the rest done soon.





Ethan had his 18 month check up tonight with Dr. Schuler. It went really well. He is doing everything he is supposed to. He is getting so big.
Wt: 25lbs 6oz
(although that was with a onesie and a cloth diaper on, why would you keep it on, well the nurse wouldn’t let me take it off. ARGH! I like to be accurate!! LOL) So I guess I will say 25lbs.
Ht: 34inches
Head: 19inches
I couldn’t believe he gained 4 lbs since last visit. He must be eating pretty good then. I am worried for nothing. He is getting better at eating though. Although it is really tough to get him to try new things.
Ethan has also learned to jump a couple weeks ago. That is the cutest thing. He is saying so many things now. Too many to even count or list. When he thinks he is having a conversation with you…it is pretty serious, because he actually responds and does jestures like he is really talking. (all the whole time you can’t understand a word he is staying) LOL
These are just a few more pictures from his 18 month photo session with Christie….I am so loving them.
