Well things ran a bit later than usual this year (and I admit sad defeat with my blog posting). The wee bit of snow (wink) we got pushed back our closing to accommodate some late orders and shipping to clients. However we are ready for the break! 
 
Beautiful Babies and More is closed for the Holidays through January 4, 2010. All calls and emails will be returned at that time. Thank you so much!

Wishing all of my families, the merriest of merriest. To all the wonderful children I photographed this year I hope you enjoy your winter breaks and holidays. Looking forward to a wonderful 2010!
 
(and for those clients whose dreams will be filled with sweet thoughts of the big man in red…)

my photographer gave to me… two handsome boys!

Photographed last week, I loved the interaction between the boys playing outside. Despite the chilly temps they had fun running it off.

I think we all feel this way sometimes when Mom puts us in our Sunday best clothes… =)

but you can still have fun with Daddy in a three piece suit…

my photographer gave to me.. a holiday card!

Sharing my own holiday card (5×5 trifold) I sent this year to family and friends.

Hope everyone is getting their shopping done and enjoying the month of December.

Yes, I have been slacking on my 12 Days posts. We are incredibly busy here getting card orders, print orders (did I mention card orders?) processed and printed for holiday orders. We have printed just over 2,000 client cards this year. That is a record for Beautiful Babies and More this year. I love seeing all the beautiful cards coming in (and out =) It has been a busy, wonderful season. Thank you to everyone who are still inquiring about sessions this year, however we are no longer booking any sessions for 2009. I am trying my best to respond to all inquires in a timely manner but if you are reading this please note we are now booking for January 16, 2010 and later. We only have 4 spots left for January sessions and very few for February.

Beautiful Babies and More is closed December 21-January 5, 2010 (emails or calls will be returned on January 5th) and then closed again February 1-12, 2010.

In trying to get caught up on blog posts so to speak, I need to post this precious baby girl I photographed a couple weeks ago. So sweet and loved by her family!

my photographer gave to me — SWEET BABY TOES…

and the freshest of all the toes, my nephew mere minutes old.

Those little piggies make me *swoon*

my photographer gave to me…. OUT TAKES!

I think this one speaks for itself.

“Do I have something on my face?”

Jumping is the fun part, landing is the hard part.

The older sister just wants to love the little one.

The dog on the left looks pretty skeptical about this whole new baby deal.

My nephew looks pretty excited about his favorite Auntie photographing him.

I have a habit of letting the blog fall to the wayside this time of year. I am extremely busy behind the scenes processing orders so I decided to hold myself accountable for my faithful blog readers and will celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas — Beautiful Babies and More style.

Enjoy!
