Photo Post – Little Model

Since you were born, people have been telling me to enter you in photo contests or get you into modeling, literally dozens of times. You’re so pretty, baby and you know how to wear a hat. I’m not big on the idea of breaking you into Hollywood, but when a Baby Hat business contacted me about doing some product shots, I decided to let you shine. Here’s a few of the hats you modeled for me. You did great! As long as we’re outside with lots of distractions, you left the hats on long enough for me to at least take a few pictures. And you get to keep all the hats! 🙂

You  have a current obsession with picking flowers which is – admittedly – my fault since I’ve been allowing you to pick weeds in our yard and at the park. You think that all flowers are fair game now. We’re slowing teaching you that flowers are “just for looking” and smelling of course. It’s going to take a while to break the habit. You love being outside. The older you get, the more of an effort I make to ensure we spend time outside as often as possible at the park, and hopefully soon, in our own backyard. We have a swing set we need to assemble – as soon as Daddy’s back heals up a little more.

It took you a bit of effort to figure out how to get the Monkey hat off. Eventually, you figured out that pulling on the strings was counter-productive. hehe

These last shots were taken up in Mukilteo, WA where Daddy and I used to both work. We spent an awesome day – just us girls, while Daddy worked – on the waterfront chasing seagulls, putting our feet in Puget Sound, picking flowers and eating ice cream. It’s so awesome the difference a year makes. You were fun at 6 Months. But now at a year and a half, you have become my little buddy. I am enjoying you so, so much!
