Pregnancy is beautiful!

Here's a peek from one of the two maternity shoots that I just did. I think I got some great shots! This is probably my favorite! It makes me wish that I had cute pictures done while I was pregnant. Check out the two most recent posts on my other blog to see more of the beautiful families waiting for their new arrivals.

Sorry I caved little man!

The other day Bella begged me to let her push Everett around in her doll stroller and I caved. It was just too cute! She even gave him a baby doll to hold. I think he is secure enough with his boyhood that he will recover just fine. I'm kidding we are cool with our boy being surrounded by pink and playing with dolls. He's 7 months old and it goes along with having a big sister. =)

It is funny though you put a car, truck, ball or any other so called boy toy in front of Everett and his eyes light up. Bella was and is the same way with girly stuff. I never knew that they were actually just naturally attracted to the toys of their gender. This may not be true with every kid but it sure is with mine. I guess I just assumed that children were somewhat taught what toys to be attracted to.

I am absolutely so in love with my family and photography!

My little photography business is starting to take off! Recently I got a studio set up with lighting and a couple backdrops! I have to say that I feel like a kid in a candy store. I've been having fun figuring out the new set up and my family has made for the perfect models. Even my sweet husband who isn't too fond of having his picture taken. For me he would pose for hours and not complain. He's marvelous! Here's a few pictures of my loves working the camera.

Zumba!

If you ever get the chance to take a Zumba class do it! We have a girl at church that is a certified Zumba instructor and out of the kindness of her heart she teaches Zumba for free at the church Thursday mornings. Everyone brings their kids along and they play as the Mommies get down to business. Zumba is full of lots of hip shaking, latin rhythms, belly dancing etc. It's such an invigorating break from the monotony of a regular exercise routine and I love it! It's like having a dance party with your girlfriends. So much fun!

Where did my baby girl go?

Bella just had her 3rd Birthday! I feel so blessed to have spent the last three years getting to know our little bundle of love and joy! Words can't even begin to express how I feel about her. She has changed my world for the better and amazes me each and everyday.

So what does a 3 year old girl want for her birthday? A princess party of course with all her favorite little princesses and tons of PINK!

Snow Day!

We had a good amount of snow a few weeks back. We decided to bundle up the kids and go out to play! We had fun making snow angels, having a little snowball fight and Daddy pulled the kids around in a sled. Good thing we enjoyed it while it was here because 2 days later it was all gone.

The Magic of Christmas!

So I tried to capture Christmas morning through the eyes of a 2 1/2 year old and here's what I got! Yes, she is saying booty. Booty is Bella's favorite word thanks to her Aunties Missa and Sharalyn. I love it!

We had 4 Christmases this year!

1. Christmas Eve at Grandma and Grandpa Perry's with them, Sharalyn, Maria & Kolbyn.

2. Christmas Morning here at our casa.

3. Christmas evening with Grandma and Grandpa Blevins.

4. Uncle Dan and Aunt Michelle's Christmas party a few days after Christmas.
