Too Fast

I call this one My Budding Artist.

I think it's obvious I love to take pictures, particularly of my children and it's the easiest to get some of the one who's around the most these days...my baby girl. I find myself catching my breath a bit lately as I marvel that my tiny baby is less than two months away from turning one. Where has the time gone? It has definitely gone by too fast! She took so long to get here and I just want to savor every second. Each day it seems as if she's growing more; walking, talking, waving....but the one I love the most is her little squeezes she gives from waking up from naps...are getting tighter.




And speaking of too fast...I worked up a sweat getting these shots! She is on the go, walking...and would not sit still. I'd plop her down and by the time I got the camera in my hand she had run away! I need new sound effects.

That last shot of her profile is PRICELESS!

I agree with Dawn about that profile. And the first picture is SO fun! I LOVE her little black body in front of all those colors! Perfection.

Tell me about needing new sound effects. Mine don't even phase Kenadie.

She looks so big in these pictures! Time has flown...I can't believe she is almost one years old. What a gift to your children for them to know how you have "savored" each minute.

She is so adorable!

I haven't told you this, but I just wanted to thank you SO much for our pictures! They are seriously SO priceless. I want to hang EVERY single one up in my house. You are seriously amazing. Now I am going to have to have a photo shoot every time we are in town. Be excited. ;) Again, Kim, thank you so very much! You are amazing!

Kim,
Grace is a beautiful little girl, and I think it is amazing that she is walking so early. Her strong little legs don't look so much like baby legs now! I love to read your updates and see your great pictures...

She is so adorable. I can't believe how long her legs look. Almost one- No way!

I love the leotard! So cute! I haven't figured out how to keep my children in my "perfectly positioned shots". It must be the plague of motherhood. "Just...sit...still...foraminute!"

Is that one of your paintings in the first shot? LOVE it- whatever it is. She really is adorable and I love that shot of Grant curling his tongue.

After a few snow storms and days shut inside I finally got the material for Grace's dress today. I'm so excited to start making it. I have a bunch of ideas swimming in my head. I hope you like it and that is comes out how it is in my head.
