Summer Pictures

Summer Pictures
Now I know why people spend hundreds of dollars on pictures of their kids.
Trying to do it yourself is enough to send you to the nut house.
Or just reach for the nearest glass of wine.
Don't get me wrong.  We love the outcome of our  photoshoot.
But getting there was not easy.
Scheduling it around Rogue's naps, Solis's moods, the weather, and those nasty mosquitoes did not leave us much time per day...so we took pictures all week long.
And using my baby voice to get Rogue to smile and my goofy "Did you just fart?" jokes to get Solis to smile was a tough game to play.
But we did it.  Shaun snapped away (we literally had hundreds of photos to sort through), he edited them, and now we have pictures to proudly give the grandparents.
Whew.
That definitely won't be happening again till next summer :)

Picture overload time.....
 A bird crapped on me at this location while trying to make the kids smile.
True story.

 But seriously.  Can we talk about that hair?


 Melt.my.heart.
Yup.  Sums up what we dealt with all week.
Good thing we love these kids to pieces!

  2. LOVE these pics! I'm so glad I found your blog, I was looking for some VBAC birth stories. I'm 31 weeks along and hoping to have one too, and I love reading the success stories as we get closer. PS- in another post you had a really cute gray boppy cover- did you make it, or find it at an Etsy shop? Have been looking for something similar!

    1. Thank you! Yes, I am a successful VBAC, hands down way better! But those contractions are no joke. I got all my son's bedding from ModFox on Etsy....I am no martha stewart! Do you have an instagram account?
