Cooper

How cute and adorable is this little guy? Once he fell asleep, he was putty in my hands...as long as we didn't lay him on his tummy! He's defiantly a back sleeper!

I've been holding off on posting his newborns so mom could get her birth announcements out...I didn't want to spoil anything! Enjoy!

26 Weeks Vegas Style!

Yes...we took our unborn daughter to Vegas! We had an opportunity to attend the Academy of Country Music Awards that is held in Vegas each year...Thank you Dr. Pepper!! We stayed at the amazing MGM Signature (thankfully away from all the casinos and smoke). We decided to use this trip as a baby moon, so we flew out Friday evening and came back Monday evening. It was so good to just get away and spend some time with my hubby. We've been to Vegas before, so it was nice to just wander the strip and not feel like we had to see all the sights. The Little Miss was good to me! I had enough energy to walk for 2.5 hours in the hot sun! I even got a little pool time in too!

Here's our 26 week photo in front of the Bellagio. I could stare at those fountains forever! They are so cool!!



I was so excited to wear a real dress...this is NOT a maternity dress! Score!!



Oh yea! We are there!!! So exciting!!

I got to meet Randy Rogers!!! Excuse the crazy eyes! :)

Allie & Jackson

I love me some redheads! They are always full of spunk and Miss Allie did not disappoint! She even gave my little miss some lovin' by rubbing my belly and giving her a kiss. Such a sweetie!! Mr. Jackson is such a little handsome stud!

Padgham Family Bluebonnets

April is always such an exciting time in Texas. It's the start of Bluebonnet season! These are the most beautiful flowers that I have ever seen and are made even more special by the fact that they don't last long. I have lots of kiddos lined up for some bluebonnet pictures, but this adorable family got to have first dibs! This is my new, secret field!!

I am loving how all these turned out! And if you wondered why they are always done so late in the evening....well, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

Sawyer

Miss Sawyer is 2!! She wasn't much in the mood for pictures, but you would never know it! Happy birthday little cutie!

Lily, Katy, John & Morgan

This sweet little family is so special to me! Mom and I are great friends...in fact, I lived with them when I first moved to Dallas. Morgan was just 4 months old and now she's the big sister!

Lydia & James

What cuties these two were! James has spouted since the last time I saw him and Lydia is just as sweet as ever.

Jack, Carter & Davis

This mom is a rock star!! I have no idea how she survives with 3 boys! They are all super adorable and I had such a great time with them. I especially enjoyed dad's version of the Justin Bieber song Baby, Baby. It got the boys dancing!

25 Weeks

We are quickly approaching the due date! Yikes! It was exciting to get up there in the weeks, but now, the countdown is looking a little scary. I have so many things to do and I'm getting a flood of appointments for July...which is odd since that is usually the slow time.

We finally put up our Little Misses crib!! It looks so weird to walk by her room and just see the crib in her empty room. We'll be buying her dresser and nightstand next week and her bedding should be ready any day. I will post pictures when everything is installed.

We are headed to Las Vegas tomorrow for a little fun at the American Country Music Awards. I feel a little weird knowing that my daughter will be tagging along. LOL!! I'm hoping to make it to the old Vegas sign to snap a 26 week photo, but we'll see how our weekend goes.

Well, here's the ever growing belly! I can really feel her twisting and turning around in there. It's the most bizarre feeling when she does a full on body roll...my stomach gets really tight! She still seems to be loving my right side, which I learned is where my liver is! Apparently, it's warm over there, so I defiantly know she is my daughter! I am always cold!!

Lindsay & George

These two are new to my camera, but you'll see them again in a couple months. They are adorable and such great kids. Their mom and I ran together in the fall, so it was good to see her again and catch up.

David~Tulips

Mr. David is also another kiddo I have been photographing since he was born. He is such a ham and quite good at the Hot Potato song. It was great to see this family again!


Such a little man!

Charlotte~Tulips

What a little sweetie! I have been taking Miss Charlotte's pictures since she was born, so every time I get to see her is so exciting. She is growing up so fast and has quite the vocabulary for a 17 month old...and a cute little voice to go along.

Zoey~Tulips

Check out this cute lil redhead! She reminds me of Pebbles. Miss Zoey had a great time in the tulips and I had a great time catching up with her mama. :-)

24 Weeks

Ok, so I'm only slightly panicking about the length of time left. There are so many things to do!! I'm probably freaking out about nothing...

We had our 24 week dr appointment and everything looks good! Our next appointment will be the dreaded glucose test...which my dr was so kind to send me packing with a nice orange bottle of liquid. Yum! Can't wait to drink that! UGH!! The nurse tried to make it better by saying "it tastes better cold...like a flat sunkiss". Hmmm.

It looks like the Little Miss has a nice weight and so does her mama! I am psyched that throughout this entire pregnancy, I have only gained 7lbs!

I know I'm late posting this because 25 weeks is here in 2 days, but here ya go. The ever growing belly. And let's just say that now that Little Miss is getting bigger, whenever she makes a big move, it's just a little painful.

A&A~Dallas Arboretum Tulips

If you haven't been to the Dallas Arboretum, you must go! The tulips are amazing and everything is starting to look like Spring! I had the pleasure of photographing these two cuties the other day.
