I enjoyed a few lovely days on the Grand Bahama Island with my husband this past week. I just wanted to share a few of my favorite photos from our vacation.

I already miss my flip flops. By the way, Teva mush flip flops are the best ever!

A few minute before sunrise…

As the sun is rising…

Island flora…

a very large bird’s footprints…

We stayed at the OurLucaya resort. I highly recommend!

and what’s a trip to the Bahama’s without the drink in a coconut! =)

Stay tuned for a busy week of beautiful baby photos…

Michelle

We returned from our Disney vacation to mountains of snow — what is up with that? I can not complain about missing two major snow storms while we played away in sunny Florida and of course I have to share a few images from our wonderful family vacation.

Yes, it was warm enough to swim!

Disney World is truly a magical place…

where else can you be a pirate and fight the swashbucklers with swords?

or train to be a Jedi and face the evil Darth Vadar?

where the mouse is the biggest cheese in town…

and where every handsome prince gets a kiss from his favorite princess…

I am back to catching up on emails and voice mails (not to mention shoveling!!!)

The kids are back in school, the tree is down, the presents are all put away, the cookies are eaten (sigh!) and I am working through the emails and orders received over the holiday break. Happy New Year all!!!

I’m so excited for 2010 happenings here at Beautiful Babies and More! We have two spots open for January sessions and only a couple open for February since we will be closed February 1-12. If you are expecting a baby in the next couple months please call/email and get pre-scheduled for a newborn photo session. Beautiful Babies and More is already “expecting” 7 babies in the winter of 2010, we have room for more but please do not wait until the last minute to contact us.

It would not be a blog post without a photo share so here are my two boys enjoying the spoils of what Santa delivered.

my photographer gave to me… snow angels!

Hope you are all digging out!

my photographer gave to me… a snow day photo!

Take the time to stop and taste the snowflakes.

I think it has been a few months since I featured my handsome nephew, Jackson. I know I am biased, however I think the photos speak for themselves. He is the CUTEST! My sons were so happy to have their cousin visit for Halloween and I happy to fit in a family photo session. Enjoy your sneak peek Chrissy and Andrew! I can not wait until you see your family photos, your Holidays cards are going to be amazing this year.

and the inevitable “Please stop taking my photo, Aunt Chelle!”

My 4 year old, Jeremy is VERY excited about his favorite baseball team. He would wear his Phillies shirt 24/7/365 if I let him. I just had to share my cutie singing his favorite song…

GO PHILLIES!!!!!!

I have been a busy bee at Beautiful Babies and More this week. All good things I promise. I am finishing up a few galleries today so if you have been waiting to hear from me this week, I promise you will hear from me later today. I’m putting the finishing touches on my 2009 Holiday Card Collection and will be posting them on the blog by Tuesday.

Here is the view from Jackson’s crib:

He is sleeping in his “Woombie.” I wish they had this when my guys were little. Looks so comfy for swaddling and my sister LOVES it. New Mommies should check it out — www.woombie.com

Happy Friday all!

I can’t believe it will be August in a couple of days. This summer has flown by too quickly. I’m enjoying every moment of it but can not believe it’s time to start thinking about back-to-school supplies, end of the summer get-aways and the upcoming Fall Photo sessions. However it IS time.

The next couple of weeks are going to be hectic with newborns. You will be surprised with the amount of newborns that are going to be making their debut on the blog in the month of August. We have 6 on the calendar to date starting this weekend. Oh my! It’s sweet baby time!

I’m also booking for Fall Photo Sessions. It is NOT too early to book your Holiday session with Beautiful Babies and More. Clients from previous years know to book early to get the dates they want and are already contacting me so if you are interested please contact me soon. I will be posting Holiday cut-off dates in the next week or so along with a preview of our 2009 Holiday Card Collection. Please check back for updates and contact us for questions on scheduling.

Of course I can’t post without some photos to share. So here’s my older guy showing off his Razor scooter skills.

This shirt from Boden really sums him up. Totally cheese!

Thanks for stopping by,

Time flies. My nephew just turned 4 months. I can’t believe how quickly the first year goes by, I swear it was just yesterday he was born. Well we spent a weekend at my sister’s house recently and you know I had the camera out. Auntie Chelle (that’s what we are calling me, right?) loves to photograph those sweet, little cheeks! Let me share the cuteness that is my nephew… (I’m know I am biased.)

I hope my sister doesn’t kill me for posting this photo but I adore my nephews face. “Seriously? Another photo from this lady?” teehee

My boys are totally in love with their cousin. However he looks a bit scared, no?

Thanks for looking!
