Tuesday's Pic'k #7

    Well here is this week's Pic'k. I really need to get more of these up each week, because it's very hard to narrow down to just one. This little angel rocked her 3-year session. Tons to choose from, but this one has to be one of my favorites. She's just beautiful in the face, but when her little wet muddy overalls started to fall off and she had to -one arm - them... This is what we got, just priceless to me.

     I love my job and I thank the Lord above for making it possible for me to do it. This was a topic amongst friends Sunday and I'm grateful I'm a lucky one. If you're not a lucky one and feel in the end, you'll only be making enough to always/only - be comfortable...then I hope you too get to do what makes you happiest.

Aplogy Accepted

So yesterday my daughter was whiney after waking, due to lack of sleep and just not in a good mood per her normal self. We were getting ready to head to her music class during the moments she would let me get myself ready.  After getting her settled and happier, I was in our bathroom when she appeared saying:  "I sorry Mommy, I sorry, I sorry Mommy I crynin'g a LOT". I told her I accept her apology and thank you for being such a good and big little girl for doing so.

Then this morning while eating her breakfast, she again proceeds to tell me the very same thing... even though she hadn't cried either morning.  Funny what they think of and how special it is when "at this age", they're already doing the "grown-up thing".

Luv luv to my little gal.   Lil' Bit.
As my friend Dana always says....

Tuesday's Pic'k #6

This Tuesday's Pic'k is from yesterday morning's 2 year old session, because I just couldn't wait to get in just long enough to take a peek. And although I'm extremely tickled with some of what we captured this little blonde beauty stopped me when I got a glimpse of this one during just uploading. I liked it so much... and because frankly it's time to add much more to the latest website...this particular one is now there instead of sharing here as before. So just go to our website http://www.dreambeeartphotography.com/  "Enter" the Portrait Studio and "click" Wee Ones at the bottom to catch a glimpse.  Let us know what you think. She's just adorable standing turned away from the horse as they both posed, just perfect for a brief second. She kept me and her Mommy on our toes the whole time. 

Just FYI... 2 year olds are B-U-S-Y as BEE's, pun intended.

Enjoy!

Pageant #2 - Sumner County Fair continued

Well last Wednesday my daughter was in not one, but two Newspapers in Sumner County.  She placed 3rd as told in a previous post, pictured left in the Polkdot dress in the "The Gallatin News" paper.

Then we went back to the fair a few days later to enjoy the exhibits and pony rides and our picture was taken while looking at the exhibits. This paper is the Gallatin News Examiner and came out the same day last week. What a treat to see your baby in the paper.



Just a little something personal to share again with everyone. Hope you enjoyed.

Friday's Fav "Cuddle"

I just happen to run across this little gal and decided she should be this Friday's Fav. Her name matches the gem she is... and so sweet to be around. Her grandmother brought her to the studio to surprise her daughter (the mother) with a portrait treasure. A timeless treasure as we like to call them.

Remember it's time to now book your Fall Sessions as the days are finally getting cooler and cold weather will be here sooner than you know it. Call us at: 615.451.0018, we'd love to create something special just for you.

Have a great weekend!

When They're Quiet

So most parents if not ALL parents know, when their little ones are quiet, is when they really should be going to see WHY they're so quiet. And this little face is, even though just -oh so cute- (of course, I'm her Mom) NO different. Not once but three times today, she was very quiet. The first time she came to me with her mouth full of candy and WRAPPER, holding two lollipops she hadn't started on yet. And of course she didn't mind the wrapper until I dug it out to remove it. At some point today she took her Daddy's mandolin strings out of the case (granted it's her mandolin case, but Daddy's for the time being)....so strings are somewhere in the house yet to be found.

But the reason for me to even write this today is because of the 3rd time she was quiet a few minutes ago. She came in the kitchen with my (Mommy's) hair pick and water dripping down her face and her hair was wet.... you got it - Potty water. So in the tub she is, still at this moment as I escaped for a few minutes to share this with you.

So when they're quiet...You Never Know!

This little shot was taken at the late birthday party we had for her that I wrote about in an earlier post. As promised here's a glimpse! And yes ball players... It's her first glove and I'm not the one who gave it to her. Thanks AJ. I was tickled pink about it though. We played with it a little today.

Pageant #2 - Sumner County Fair

Well baby girl, did so good Tuesday night during the Sumner County Fair 2 Year Old Pageant in Gallatin, TN. Her personality bubbled over for the judges. I was very proud of her. She placed 3rd and received a white Ribbon. I believe she is due some money, but no one directed us. I'll have to call and check on it tomorrow. I'm almost sure she is also the youngest of the 2 year olds that placed.
This is only her 2nd Pageant.  At least she was the most happy while having her picture taken for the paper. She's saying "teeth".  Thanks to Terry Baughn for being our personal photographer during the Pageant in the extreme heat.  You're awesome.

Guess it's time to buy a true Pageant dress. She woke up that morning showing me what she was going to do and say and has already told me she wants to "do more Pageant - a-lot".

Also, congrats to a recent client. She received the Blue Ribbon in her baby category. Daughter of Amber Williams.
Have a good weekend.

Prayers Needed

Hello to all my friends and everyone viewing this blog post.  Today, I'm asking for prayers for a friend of mine who actually started as a client. She's the sweetest thing and needs as many prayers as we can drum up.  I'm kicking myself for not asking before hand and maybe they wouldn't be needed now. 

So she just hung up with me on the phone as she has been going through the IVF process and has been keeping me posted along the way... now remember you just can't help but get excited along with her, because you really just believe you'll end up pregnant when you go through the process. But for whatever reason it just didn't take.  She's so upset as this is all NEW news today and is just sinking in.

I ask that we all pray for her to be directed in the way she needs to according to God's plan... and hopefully that means towards receiving a healthy baby or even two.

Thanks for spreading the word about my friend and her family, so that she'll call and tell me she's pregnant in the near future.

Have a good rest of the day.

Tuesday's Pic - "Leaving"

LEAVING...

We left the beach on Friday morning and the look on my girl's face seems to express her saddness about coming back home and leaving THE BEACH. Which she just loves. We found this out real quick last year, so we had to go back this season as well.
Which is one of the reasons I'm way behind on blogging. Along with a late birthday party for my gal's 2nd on Sunday a week ago, yes, the day before we left for vacation and my husband and I celebrated 12 years of marriage this past Sunday, and all of this, meant much spring cleaning had to happen when throwing parties and leaving town.

Due to business and many other things life throws at you, such as my Dad's passing, even back to having our baby girl... it seems like I just can't catch up sometimes, and I bet you at some point have felt sort of the same. But I personally can't function well unless I'm busy - it's just ME. I've come to the conclusion I must like it this way so I keep on keeping on, so to speak.

I hope to add something from her birthday party soon and share a little of what we have going on from time to time, instead of just business. So, I've rambled enough and just wanted to touch base with a little "Tuesday's Pic". Have a great rest of the week!
