12 Hours

I did another 12-hour photo project today. One photo every hour for 12 hours.



My Saturday started at 8am and consisted of several trips outside to play in the snow.

BJ and Eric with the neighborhood dogs.
Alexis bundled up in the stroller while we play in the snow.
Breakfast at Cracker Barrel.

Boots off - time to relax!

4/52 Straight out of the camera

I took this last night as I put Lexi to bed in case I didn't get a chance to get a better shot today. She got her shots today and hasn't felt well since, so this will do for this week.

Teething?

I'm not sure if Alexis is teething yet, but she looooves to chomp on Sophie la Girafe.

Kitties

I took a couple of photos of my kitties the other day and thought I'd share.

Aphrodite



Both of these photos are straight out of the camera (SOOC) with no post-processing.

Baby laughs make EVERYTHING better!

Toes are yummy

Whoops!!

I was just going through my old posts and saw that on my Photo A Day Project in November, I forgot to post the shot for Day 24! Blogger will not let me go back and add the post where it should be, so I'm adding it right now.

Here is a photo of my sleepy baby, taken on November 24, 2009.

Snow!

This weekend brought Middle, TN a bit of snow. Now, we don't get much snow here at all so a couple of inches is a big deal!

Here is Stella on the back porch.



We bundled up Lexi and took her out to experience her first snow.

She was not to impressed by it.



Lexi and I.



Lexi and Eric.



After Eric took Lexi back inside to warm up, I stayed out and tried to take some snowflake shots.

This was the best of the bunch and I really like how it turned out.

I'm going to attempt to take one photo every week in 2010 of me and my baby. Wish me luck!

Delurk, if you please

Apparently it's National Delurking Week. I really have no idea how many people actually read my blog and it would be nice to find out.

So if you stop by, leave a comment and say Hi!

2009: A Year In Review

The following is a sampling of what happened in my little corner during 2009.

January:

I felt like crap most of January from the little bebe growing in my tummy.



February:

We got some snow on a trip to Knoxville.



I did a maternity photoshoot for Lindsay.



And got some good family shots as well.



March:

I announced to the virtual world that I was expecting.



Went to USITT in Cincinnati, OH and met up with a bunch of friends, including the lovely Digger.



April:

About halfway through my pregnancy - little did I know how much bigger I would get!



Beau spent most of April in a cast from a broken toe.



May:

Belly started to get noticibly large.



Moved the bookcase out of the guest room and into the office in preparation for Baby.



May consisted of several lazy Sundays that looked like this.



June:

Got Baby's crib!



Had a photoshoot with little Ben.



Went to Emily's wedding and took some photos.



July:

Celebrated the 4th of July at BJ and Amy's house and took some photos of Amy's nephews.



Got a beautiful glider from Eric's mother for the Baby's room and put up a tree decal.



Called up a friend from high school to do a maternity shoot. Turns out Mollie and I both share a love for photography and have worked together on several shoots since then.



My belly just kept getting bigger.



August:

I had my baby shower and got lots of stuff for Baby!



Shot a wedding with Mollie in Bon Aqua, TN (otherwise known as BFE)



Took my last baby bump photo (which also happened to be a clone photo) the day before I delivered.



Alexis Nicole made her debut on the 26th of August.

Beauregard went to live with my mother-in-law and currently loves being a spoiled puppy.



My baby turned one month old.



October:

Did a little photoshoot with baby Elijah.



Lexi had her first Halloween.



November:

Went to Steph and Zeb's wedding. Hooray for Steph and Zeb!



Met up with Mollie again to take some photos of her and her little boy, Cale.



Successfully completed another Photo-A-Day Project for the month of November. Also had a great Thanksgiving in Knoxville.

Had a family photoshoot with the Lemons.



I went and took some photos of Lair from Hurricane Doyle.
