My commercial baby

 ETMC asked me if Annemarie & I would consider being in a commercial for ETMC. The commercial airs quite often, & they also made this ad for the family birthplace. This picture was taken in our home in Annemarie's nursery when she was 7 months old. She IS a beautiful baby!!!
Proud Mama!

Sanibel island vacation







Mermaid Baby Annemarie

Our family beach picture tradition continues on our Sanibel Island vacation with this being Annemarie's 1st beach picture. I had a cute baby mermaid outfit made special for this occasion. Precious girl; can't wait to see the professional pics. Michael snapped these with my iPhone. My sunshine girl is the cutest!



Handsome Jackson on the beach

It can be hard to take the nice camera to the beach because of the heat, sand, water, & safety issues. Thank goodness for smartphones that can capture moments like today.

Boys pool fun

 Michael & the boys had fun in the sun and pool yesterday.  Noah is about 85 pounds; launching this kid is not easy! Daddy was a good sport!

Annemarie's 1st Fourth of July 2015

That squinched up nose---the same face I used to make at my dad when I was a baby! It's uncanny!

Annemarie Grace- 4th of July 2015
9 months old!






My photographer was sick almost this whole month, so I didn't have an opportunity to take nice 4th of July pictures for Annemarie. I did my best shot at home, and these are a few of my All-American girl! She can sport the red, white, & blue!!

4th of July Photo Booth with Grampa!

Grampa & Oma came to our house for 4th of July 2015, & Grampa didn't mind getting silly in our red, white, & blue photo booth! We kept joking because Noah's glasses with the white beard looked just like Grampa!!! What a great sport! HOW WE LOVE GRAMPA!!! He's the best!

Annemarie's 8 month pictures

Here are the pictures Rose Bailey Photography took for Annemarie's 8 month session.  It was a HOT day when we took these pictures, and at a time that is normally the near-witching hour.  But, true to form, my sunshine girl did amazing and we got what we needed quickly.  She's so delicious...from her head to her toes. I simply adore this girl. She's my sweet sunshine baby. Oh, how I adore her!
Precious baby toes!



And this is why my girl is in a commercial. She's a stunner.

Just look at this face. Joy personified. Love!!!

She looks a lot like I did when I was a baby in this one
