1 Month Snow White Baby Photos

Baby is 1 month new, so I took Snow White photos. It was a beautiful day outside for the photo shoot, and someone was running a chainsaw nearby. The chainsaw humming kept her asleep for most of the photos! I am very pleased with how they turned out!

Be sure to always have someone nearby the baby if you are not taking the pictures on the ground. This log is in our back yard and I love the way she’s laying with her fluffy tutu booty up in the air!

I found this mirror at a garage sale last summer, but I had a hard time placing her in a good position to see her reflection while she is laying down.

She absolutely hated when her feet would touch the bed frame (she would wake up and cry each time); so I placed the green blanket wherever her feet were. This is the same bed that I used in her Newborn Sleeping Beauty photos.

I just love when she pulls her feet under her body and lays like this! She’s just so adorable!

Newborn Wedding Dress Photos

Baby girl is now 13 days old! I wanted to take some newborn photos with my wedding dress; we were married a year and a half ago.

I tried to get a few photos where I could see most of the dress, then I flipped up the purple train for her to lay on as well.

She did so well cooperating with the placement of her hands under her face today. She’s adorable!

It’s my favorite when she pulls her legs under her body and sticks her little booty up in the air!

Newborn Cubs Baseball Photos

My husband has been a lifelong Cubs fan, so we decided to try some newborn photos with baby… she is now 11 days old!

She did not like the feel of the baseball glove. Every time I tried to pose her with the glove she started crying, so I decided to just set it next to her.

My husband has a few Cubs jerseys, so I tried to get some good photos with his favorites. I love her little grin, and one great picture with her eyes open!

“I might be little, but I’m a HUGE Cubs fan”

Newborn 1 Week Old Photos

Our Perfect Storm is a week new today! She is the most precious thing; I love spending every second with her!

I just love seeing her little toes curled up under her!

She is the most loved Little Sister with 3 older siblings… Josiah is 14 now and Titus is 10; they just adore her! Big sis is 11 years old and loves to hold baby.

We used this “Blessed” bucket at our wedding to hold the ice at the drink table.

Newborn Purple Roses Photos

I love purple roses, and Rose is my middle name. We combined our names to come up with a middle name for our 6 day old newborn (Kellyrose).

My dad got me this newborn purple wrap set as a gift, and the picture ended up being darling!

So cute with her hands folded under her cheek like this. I love when her tiny hands cooperate with me!

This is the first time that I have taken naked pictures of a newborn… yes, she ended up peeing on my kitchen floor!

These close up photos of her sweet little face are some of my favorites!

Sweet, sweet smiles!

Newborn Sleeping Beauty Photos

My Sleeping Beauty is now 4 days old, and seems to sleep all the time. She is so beautiful with all of her brown hair and long arms and legs! I wanted to take some Sleeping Beauty photos of her while she was still brand new, so we can remember these first days that seem to pass so quickly!

I found this cute little crown headband for her on Amazon. It was a bit big, but I just folded and tape a tiny piece of it in the back and ended up working just right.

I just love seeing her tiny toes stick out from under her booty!

2016 Family Photos

The boys and I took some family pictures this past month, so I could hang them around the house.

One nice weather day, we dressed in white and took some pictures in the backyard. These boys are just so adorable!

We also, took a few pictures in our living room. They are so silly, with their great personalities!

Another beautiful day, so we went to the school to take some pictures with the brick wall. My boys are great little models, so cooperative!

Surprise Adoption Party

My in-laws finalized the adoption of their 2 girls this past week, so we had a surprise ice cream party for them!!!

I made a family tree poster with our fingerprints. Everyone in our family added their fingerprint as the leaves on the tree. We also had new family photos taken to include the girls. I made a banner that said “Welcome to our Family” too.

Ice cream sundaes! We had several different flavors of ice cream and tons of different topping choices of fruit and candies. We wanted to make this the most special thing to celebrate the girls!

I made “Our 2 Sweethearts” sign/ banner with my Cricut.

Welcome to the family… we love you!
