Three Babies in the Tummy

Three-yes three in there. This is my super fun friend Shelby. She's 31 weeks pregnant with triplets. This girl is a stick and now she is bursting--truly bursting at the seams. She is on bed rest, so my buddy came with me and helped me to do a photo shoot at her house. She really is only supposed to be up and around for the necessities--shower and bathroom, then straight back to bed. But we had to get some pictures with her against her awesome brick wall. Yes that is in her house--it rocks. In fact--her husband may kill us when he sees that we had her out of bed and on her feet. The shoot was only about 30 minutes because I had to pick up Red from Kindergarten. But I'm amazed at what we got. She is a tiny little person and now her belly is so beautiful and big. It shoots straight out, and if you saw her from behind you probably wouldn't know she was pregnant. Thanks Shelby for letting me take these shots--I love them. (p.s. I love blogger--I just went to post these and I accidentally closed the tab, and my heart sank--I thought I'd have to redo the whole thing, but Blogger automatically saves every 30 seconds or so. Thank you blogger!)

Oh, Little boys

My friend Kayleen and I did tradesies. She made these fabulous dresses for my girls and you can buy cool dresses she makes here. In turn, I did a photo shoot for her. These are her two boys. The older one is what I call a Bubba. He looks older than he is because he has girth. He has sweet locks on his head. The other one is only a few months old, and he did pretty well. She had a fabulous chair she pulled out and we put them on it. As always--I dig input. If you are looking at this as an original post--I had to do the Ben Folds song. It is so lovely.

Brand New

The is Brand New baby Ellie (actually I have no idea how they are spelling it). She's one week old. I've been wanting to do a newborn and I finally did!! I loved it. Of course it's easy when they are you friends and the mom is totally gorgeous. Sometimes I'm hard on myself for the images I produce. But this one I'm actually proud, I love love love a lot of these. Tell me which is your favorite!

SURPRISE!!

I'm hoping Tangie Baxter is reading this without someone telling her about it. Lucky you Tangie-we did a shoot of your daughter while you knew nothing about it. For everyone else--Tangie is one of my good friends older sister, and also my friend too. She does lots for other people and we all get together and go to Broadway shows. She's super fun and talented, so check out her site. She's also good at Photoshop and is going to do something fun with these shots. Happy Fairy Making Tangie!!

Best pool E-ver

Hy's brother's family just got the rockinest pool ever. They thought of everything--slide, rock waterfall you can jump off of, a grotto (a cave to sit in behind the waterfall), colored lights for night, diving board. seats all around, a shallow kid section, umbrellas that sit in the water, and a fountain. Top that off with Pier 1 pool furniture and you got yourself the best day a kid and parent could have. My girls already wanted to live with this family, but now it is even worse. It's the best day ever when we swim. So here is some fun. Check out my chubby nephew jumping off the platform with his family. That tubey suit is hilarious. Oh, and check out the bangs sticking straight up on the first one. Nothing better than pool fun with cousins. Although we bake in the AZ summer heat--there are perks.
