My blog is turning into a photo blog isn’t it??? I am loving photography more and more all the time.?? Jim and I have been discussing lately if this will turn into a mid life career for me – once kids are older.?? Right now making it into a business would ruin it for me – I am already too busy and it would just overwhelm me.?? Someday though, when my own babies and nieces and nephews are older, I will need little ones to shoot so I might get desperate for a business.?? My own kids and my siblings, nieces and nephews keep me completely filled up with projects right now.?? I need to do a shoot for Ryker, family pictures for Brooke and Daniel, (Aimee do you want some family pictures too?), and an engagement shoot.?? (Got you curious??? I haven’t made that announement yet cuz I don’t have a picture of the ring!)?? Also have a list of photo shoots of my own kids I want and SOMEDAY I will need to start my DVD albums.?? That always gets pushed.?? Will be busy for awhile!??<\/p>\n

I am finding though that some of my favorite blogs to visit are photography blogs so hopefully I will attract readers who love photography like I do .?? Are you bored to death of the same faces yet??? Hoping you just enjoy the “art” of it.?? LOL.<\/p>\n

Aren’t those bloomers adorable??? My friend Cara mailed them to me and I have yet to put her thank you card in the mail!?? (I have a whole stack of thank you cards written but I was taking my sweet time getting my favorite picture of Tori printed to put in the envelopes.?? I realized this weekend that the picture is bigger than the small envelope – duh – so now I have to readdress them.?? Pretty tacky sending out thank you cards when my daughter is 4 months old – sorry!)<\/p>\n

Starting tomorrow I will be posting an EIGHT day seris of Amanda’s pregnancy pictures.?? I gave her about 160 pictures and I have narrowed down to about 35 to display on the blog.?? Thankfully, she gave permission to post.?? I will eventually put them in the pregnancy gallery but (a) call me vain but I like to enjoy sharing them in small groups so Heidi can ooohhh??and awww for me – sisters are great for that and (b) as you may remember, Matt and Amanda lost their year old daughter, Kambrie Grace to Miller Dieker syndrome 2 years ago – we miss her but we are also thanking the Lord that we get the blessing of opening our hearts and arms to another little miracle.?? I think he needs celebrating.?? He has been long anticpated.?? Amanda is now 36 weeks I think but keeps going into preterm so this little guy may arrive anytime now.?? The pictures were taken at about 30 weeks I think.?? Amanda??? (Note to Jodi – aren’t we just kicking ourselves that we didn’t get this done for Ryker??? Shoot a monkey!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
