Callan's Newborn Shoot

We are super lucky to have Aunt Casey take our pictures all the time! When Campbell was born, she took a few pictures, but had not done many newborns at that point. But now, she's a pro. And while I must admit, she is definitely more comfortable in her own studio, she made this shoot work with what we had at the house. She even went out of the way to get some goodies/props for Callan's pics. Her and Aric worked really hard to get the shots. They worked around a house full of people and a crazy 2 year old trying to tear down the back drop constantly; not ideal conditions. I'm just so thankful for them and the special memories they capture through their cameras.

Here are a few of my favorites! All pics courtesy of my sister, Casey Lampert of Aric + Casey Photography.

Precious Callan! 

 

This pic makes me laugh because I know it was a fluke, but it looks like she is making it on purpose, like she has a sense of humor! 

Pumpkin Patch Fun!

I finally got the pictures from the pumpkin patch we went to a few weeks ago with Aunt Casey and Uncle Aric. It was a lot of fun, and Campbell thoroughly enjoyed it! Crazy that this is the first year of many visiting the pumpkin patch! We went to the Big Orange Pumpkin Farm in Richardson this year because it was really close to Jacob's work, and we had lunch with daddy before we went! We went on a hayride, fed the goats, and enjoyed picking our own baby pumpkins! Campbell had this scrunched up nose face in almost every picture, but she's still so adorable! Enjoy the pics Casey took, and these are just a few...I had like 60 to choose from!

A few little things...

Today, while I was waiting on the UPS man to get here with our new credit cards because we had been compromised (SCARY, but no damage done, PTL), I had on the American Idol from last week that had been DVR'd. Campbell proceeded to dance (bob up and down) and clap when her favorite singers got done! Randomly she liked Jessica! It was absolutely the cutest thing, and I could kick myself for not having my video camera out. Speaking of that, I have GOT to delete some stuff from my IPhone so I can take more photos and videos...I never thought I would have needed the phone with more memory than I have. Guess that comes with having a baby ;)

My baby girl is doing more and more. She is so happy these days minus the teething, which, by the way, are coming in on top, yay! I fed her pizza today for lunch and she went to town! She is definitely mine and Jacob's daughter. We love pizza!

Cami is walking everywhere and is pretty good at it too. She is attempting to climb on things, which is too much for me. She needs to slow down. We went to visit Jacob's parents this past weekend, and Campbell loved riding in the red wagon and playing with her cousins...Thomas roared and growled at her and she just giggled and smiled! She did awesome on both trips in the car.

We are excited for Campbell's first Easter at the lake coming up! We are also planning a fun photoshoot with her favorite Aunt Casey! Can't wait for that!

The next month will be busy for me as we get ready for my sweet girl's first birthday! It will be here in just a little over a month! What an incredible blessing she has been and continues to be. I am reminded daily of the Lord's redemption and faithfulness when I look at her.

And just because I can't go without posting a pic of my girl...

And her favorite thing when she gets in her highchair now is to feed Duke. Oh boy!

Ok, hope you all have an awesome week!

so in love with this girl...

I think these photos will speak for themselves...but once again, we are so thankful for Aunt Casey and Uncle Aric for giving us amazing photos of our girl and our family! Love you guys!

THANKFUL Wrap Up...

It's hard to believe that November is OVER...It's kind of sad, Christmas will be here and gone too soon. I just love this time of year! I'm going to finish out my thankful post, but it's going to be simple and to the point...

24-I'm thankful for my health and the health of my family...Poppy had surgery on Monday...it was very extensive and we are praising the Lord for bringing him through it and asking that He will continue to heal Poppy.
25&26-I'm thankful for my wonderful church and homegroup! We have been blessed with great friends through Providence!
27-I'm thankful for FAMILY! Always...I can't imagine living without each and every member...and can't wait for the ones to come ;)
28-I'm so incredibly thankful for the Lord's provision for our family! He always makes a way and we are blessed beyond measure.
29-I thank God for his protection over me and my family. With Jacob's continuing travel with his new job...I can't pray enough for his safety on the roads. With Campbell attending daycare, and learning to do new things everyday...I am thankful that He watches over her...the list could go on and on...
30-Last, but most importantly...I'm so humbled and ultimately thankful for the Lord's LOVE! I am an awful sinner, I'm selfish and ugly, but with God's Love and His Son...I'm saved, and forgiven, and I have a little light to shine and His grace and sacrifice makes it all possible!
