My baby is 1

Alright people!  Where has the time gone.  One year ago I gave birth to a very large little girl, April!  She didn't want to nurse, but oh was she going to!!  And she did after quite a struggle.  We headed home thinking...ok, this is it.  Our last moment of peacefulness before our two year old, Sterling, had it in for us! We walked into our house, the dog came rushing to us and Sterling yelled, "NO Rara (ciarra), that's MY BABY!"  That's all it took for us to know that is was all going to be ok!  Having three 5 and under was a .  Thank God April was a GREAT baby! But here she is one year later, bigger, but small for her age. Nursed for a year, sleeps through the night, which is oh so helpful to a mom's sanity, and is just content to do about anything!

We had so much fun taking her one year pictures, which I'm not sure if it was more difficult then her newborn shoot.  Being the photographer...she just wants her mommy!

We did her shoot at Christina's house since she had these gorgeous tutu's and hats that matched, cute bucket that I envy, and beautiful hard wood floors (that I envy more!)  We did have so much fun, and she was all over the place!

But these are some of my favorite!!

I just can't seem to wrap my head around the face that my baby is 1!

Baby Blincoe

A couple of weeks ago one of my really good "photography" friends let me shoot her newborn's 4 week pictures.  This was such a fun time for me to shoot him!  I can't believe he's four weeks already!  We had such a great day.  She let me barrow some tutu's for April so I could do her 1 year pictures at the same time.  Anyway we started out with him laying in front of this cool clock from my bathroom set to the time he was born!  Her idea, and what a great one!

He was so good for us during that day.  He did LOTS of sleeping, which for those of you who don't know that most newborns start to be more alert once they've reached two weeks, so for us to get these precious memories was truly lucky!!  

Christina has some awesome backgrounds, and a beautiful buffet in her kitchen, which came in quite nicely!  I just loved it!

But in the end, some of my favorites were these with the petals!  They just turned out so beautiful.

Thanks Christina for such an awesome day, when you feel up to it you can take my baby girls pictures with me in them!!  Baby Isaac is just amazing!

Sauce Me!

Ok, so you know how Taco Bell has all those weird sayings on their sauce packets right?  Well, we wanted some of this yummy food the other day, and as I was pulling up to pay at the window I noticed they have two new sauces!!  Verde and Fire Roasted.  Below the picture of the two new sauce friends stated, "for a limited time only!"  Well, if that's the case, I thought I'd better get some.  Let me tell you I have two new best friends!

Here they are so you can meet them too.
