I have a hundred other things I should be doing but I just find myself looking back at my baby Ella's one year photos from January so often, that I figured I may as well get them posted here.

GIVE ME ALL THE PINK!

I just love pinks for girls (and blue for boys, of course...classics) and couldn't let her one year season go by without color drenching my baby.


Isn't it just crazy how fast our little babies grow? I shot these mid January and we're now nearing the end of February. She turned one Jan 29 and not even a month later, she's already looking like a little toddler. Her hair has even grown since these photos, she's got two more teeth fully in and I can see at least 4 more ready to come through. Im just so glad I have these photos to reminisce and take myself back to that day.


Out of all the kids, I really really thought she would be the one to go IN on the cake. She's my best eater! But just like most babies, she was interested and explored it a bit but really didn't take it down. I see that more times than not - it's not often to see a baby go full smash. But that's part of the fun. It's such a good time watching them consider and play and see what their reaction is to this new food.


Enjoy a few of my faves from Ella's one year photo shoot!
