Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day! 

This is my first Mother's day as a mom. Last mother's day I was pregnant and waiting to meet the baby in my belly...but this Mother's day takes the cake! I am so blessed to have a healthy growing little boy that makes me smile bigger than I knew was possible. He has captured my whole heart and I am so thankful to my Heavenly Father for blessing me with this amazing little human being, and with an amazing husband as well. I have the best little family a girl could ask for.

I am also extremely blessed to have had an AMAZING mother. She has been such an example to me growing up of what a mom can and should be. She has always been selfless and put our needs before her own. I hope that one day if I can say I am half the mother my mom was, that my kids will be truly blessed.

Mom, I love you with all my heart!

In honor of Mother's Day, I have done a couple giveaways.

 (One is still going on over at UtahCountyMom.com)

If you entered but did not win,

don't be sad! I am going to be offering 30% OFF the session fee,

for the month of May. 

If you wish to have a "Mommy & Me" session, 

please email me and in the subject line put "Mother's Day".

I would love to be able to take some pictures of all the mom's

that are always behind the camera and are always sacrificing for their little ones.

This special will run through the month of May.

We can book your session beyond May,

but you will only get this rate if you contact me during this month,

and then we can set something up.

I hope all the of the moms out there know how much your kiddos love you.

The world is a better place because of all the wonderful mother's.

Now for a little picture of the special little guy that made me a mother for the first time 10 months ago!

Momma LOVES you Brady boy!

Mommy & Me {Utah County Cildren Photographer, Utah County Family Photographer}

Jessica and I used to work together at Novell.  She is now a full time Mommy to the cutest little girl Lily. I did a Mommy & Me session for her for Mother's Day and will be doing one more for one of her readers too!

Jessica has a FABULOUS blog for Utah County Moms (UtahCountyMom.com) Here she shares a fun calendar of events that happen all over Utah County for moms to do with their little ones.

So that means my readers now have TWO chances to win a "Mommy & Me" session!

Remember that Sweet Treats & More's contest will be announcing the winner tomorrow,

and the contest on Utah County Mom runs through May 11!

Help spread the word and let's make some amazing mom out there SUPER happy!

On a side note, if you don't win, or would like to gift a "mommy & Me" session for Mother's day,

please email me and we can get you a gift certificate for the special mom in your life!

Ok on to the cuteness!!!

Fun Foto {Good}Friday & Happy Easter {Utah County Children Photographer}

I LOVE Easter! I love what it represents and what it reminds all of us of...

I am not sure how bunnies and egg hunts got thrown in the mix,

but I won't complain because Mini Cadbury eggs are a little slice of Heaven!

I took these cute lil' boys out for some pics and came home with a full memory card!

I love watching these BFF's interact and play with one another.

Brady constantly wants what KP has and it doesn't matter what it is, all Brady knows

is that if KP has it, he wants it. Poor KP cried when Brady took his shoes.

I don't blame him though, his shoes were pretty shnazzy.

Please excuse the photo overload....like I said my card was full when arriving home!

Look at that smile!!

Brady at 9 months {Utah County Children Photographer}

This guy turned 9 months last week! I can't believe how fast time is flying. I was just looking at his 6 month pictures that I took and I swear he has grown like 8 inches! Ok maybe not that much but he is definitely leaving the baby stage sooner than I ever thought he would. He is turning into a little boy almost overnight!

I love this smile! He of course is looking at his daddy!

He soon found how small the blanket was...and that there were cool rocks he just had to try to taste!

Look how excited he is!!

When we were all done because he was pretty much fascinated with EVERYTHING BUT 

looking at me...daddy decided to swing him upside down. he loved every second of it!

I wish you could hear the squeals he was making!

Growing WAY Too Fast!

This little guy is seriously growing faster than I can keep up with! These photos were taken 2 weeks ago and he has already changed in those 2 weeks! Are you kidding me?? I am a total slacker and need to take his 9 month pics...so I have some homework tonight!! But good night he is a cutie!

Sir Laughs A Lot {Utah County Children Photographer}

I love taking pictures of this lil' guy! He is changing so fast it's crazy! These pictures are from the beginning of the month and we have already changed since then! We had added 2 more teeth!! Are you kidding me? We are currently working on another one and it is NOT pretty! I am ready to have my happy giggly boy back any day now! I am obsessed with the way he smiles at his Daddy! His face just lights up as soon as Michael walks in the door (not sayin' I blame the kid cuz let's get real so do I...), but I love the way they interact with one another.  Melts my heart every darn time! Love them!

Look at this face....pissed as all get out that we are yet again taking pictures!

But then Daddy tickles him to get some smiles!

The notorious tongue shot!

I wish you could hear the giggle that goes with this face!

This next series of 3 pictures are my FAVORITE!!!

Love you little boy!
