Y’all my baby is already nine months old. I can’t believe it. I have looooved being back in the baby game – sleepless nights, snot, spit up, teething, poopy diapers and all. I have recently started referring to myself as a baby glutton. I really can’t get enough. People keep asking me if I’m ‘done’ and then staring at me in disbelief when I say no. I absolutely love having a baby. The smell of a little baby head more than makes up for the temporary lack of freedom they bring with them. And nursing? Ah! I’m so thrilled to have a reason to sit down and be still with my baby and snuggle him all to myself five times a day. It’s the best. I’m so very grateful.
Since I have devoted my attention to soaking up babyness this year (in addition to photography and homeschooling) this blog has suffered. I remember fondly those days long gone when I posted faithfully three times a week, and often had posts pre-written a week in advance. Aaah the good ol’ days. They may return, they may not. Who knows? I have a whole list of topics I’d like to write about and cute portrait sessions from this fall to share. Will I get to them all? Heck if I know! This my friends is why I have not set out to make an income through blogging.
I will however show you Ransom’s six month photos. Which were taken a few months ago. Because now he’s nine months. IT GOES SO FAAAAAST!!!
I’m gonna be honest with you, these first two feel like they could’ve been taken in a JC Penny studio with the fake background and pretend grass and leaves. Not my favorite, probably not something I’m going to repeat. But it is what it is and that baby is SO DANG CUTE so whatever.
