from the ever so talented Kerstin of Lilli-Kad Photography

Thanks Kerstin, your pics always make me “smile”!!!!

Ps, today is the LAST DAY for the Sweet Spring April sale….

spring has SPRUNG! To say the least Last month alone, I had 3 gorgeous baby girls all born within 7 days of eachother!
Pictured here, was my last from the giant baby boom… baby Chloe.

and my new favorite photography prop!!! on a whim, I had my mom whip up this darling baby “nesty, egg, bowl, thingie”… and it just turned out more precious that I imagined! Not to mention that baby LOVED being all “fetal position” in it… I felt bad taking her out!

And here she is again… in daddy’s arms! Nothing is more precious than a wee babe in her daddys loving arms…

Here is 8w old baby girl Mia… what a dollface, ha? I loved this shot… her expression is just precious, kinda like “hey there lady… does this hat make me look even MORE darling, or what!!” lol speaking of hats… i got this one from the very creative Jolie

are 2 easy words to describe my “niece”!  This was literally a 5 shot session (during my sons bday party, lol)… and she just is stunning with every shutter snap of my lens!

for the darling blog post about my lil bag company… you are too sweet, and made this gal SMILE from ear to ear!!!

YES YES YES!!!  Two (2) great things have fallen into place for me this past week…

1) My local OB/GYN office is going to showcase my photography!!! Wow, what an honor and what a joy
They left the pickings to me, which wasn’t easy! All these beautiful babies & bellies… the pick was so difficult!
I have ordered a few prints, that will be displayed through out their office(s), and these were my final 4:

And for my second great announcement…
2) DOH! My fabulous new blog! Thanks to the kindness of Valerie Ott
