Maternity Pictures!

So I have always been jealous of maternity photos of people. I hate that I haven't ever had them done. We tried to do some quick ones the night before Lucy was born but to no avail! So this time I told Chris he was going to have to take some real ones for me. He was stressed and nervous about it. I think naturally he has a good eye for photography. I am always impressed when he'll just snap some pictures of the girls. He always gets some great shots. But with this situation he was a little intimidated. I had set everything up, lights, metered etc. But I am just so particular with what I want. So I would tell him what angle and what to focus on, and he would take about 10 pictures and then I would make sure there was at least one good one. Sometimes it took a few tries, but after it is all said and done, I am so happy to have them and I think Chris did an amazing job! He never ceases to amaze me!
I did this shot of a friend a few years ago. I LOVE it and had to do it! Chris got me this book when we were very first dating! We were going to be apart for Christmas break and he had gotten a present for me to open each day we were apart! So SWEET! Some of the presents were cute and romantic and some were fun things relating to him, like a deck of cards since he grew up in Vegas. I loved it and was so excited to open a present every day. This book, by far was my favorite though! I love it and I love how HUGE it is. We now get to read it to our sweet little girls!

Chris was making fun of me when we did this one because I was "SO serious!" But I love it!

These little booties were knitted by Chris' Grandma Jean. I LOVE them and am so excited to be able to use them again!

YAY! I have cute maternity pictures!! Chris you are amazing and I love that you are always so willing to help out! You always put up with my crazy requests! :) But most of the time they are so worth it!
