issues

I'm having problems loading my images to my blog. The image quality is terrible. For now, follow me on my instagram @heather_bybee if you want to see more of my project 365. Once I figure out how to fix my images, I will post my project 365 once a week, I think!

what a mess

Day 15- The day mom couldn't see the living room floor. We had to sort through donations for law school and you were a little too helpful. You had a blast emptying out every bag and spreading it all over the living room. At least you had fun, because the cleaning part wasn't so awesome.

Day 14- The day we went to Chick-Fil-A with some friends! It was yummy!

let them sleep

Day 12- The day you actually took a nap. This is so rare, that I always find myself taking a picture of you when it happens.

Day 11- the day you sat right by me and laughed as I edited pictures. I love your little laugh!

Day 10- The day you two drove around with mom and dad to run errands. Mom won a bet, so dad owes us some frozen yogurt!

let it snow

Day 9- the day it snowed and snowed, and I had to take a picture of you watching it out my bedroom window. You looked over at me and asked, "Mom, take a pic-er?" All I could think was, Mom...I can't think of a better title than that.

photo shoot fail

Day 8- The day I tried doing a quick little photo shoot of you. However, someone's body parts kept turning up in most of the pictures and you were cranky unless you were playing with a spoon. Better luck next time Momma!

Day 7- the day Heavenly Father sent me an angel! We have had a rough few days; nothing terrible, just stressful. First the car broke down and needs to be fixed, then I had to call poison control because my daughter drank some children's Tylenol. Plus, I had to take my little guy to the doctor's to get something checked out. Fully prepared to pay at least $100 for the office visit, the doctor turned to me and said "I won't charge you for your doctor's visit today." Trying not to ball in the pediatrician's office, I got into my car and the tears began to flow. She will probably never know how much that meant to me, and it probably didn't seem like a big deal to her. But it was huge to me!

kool-aid queen

Day 6- the day we went grocery shopping and you insisted on getting far too many Kool-Aid packets. You also made our shopping trip at least 20 minutes longer than necessary. I let you pick out your cereal and fruit snacks and you couldn't decide what looked the yummiest. You would pick a box and put it in the cart; a minute later you would run back and pick something else. We spent at least 10 minutes just by the fruit snacks. At first, I thought this was the last time I try grocery shopping with kids. Then I noticed how excited it made you! Oh, how I really want to remember these moments. After all, life isn't just about finishing our check list's (which never seem to end). I would rather enjoy the journey, even if it is shopping at the grocery store with kids.

sunday fun day

Day 5- The day we walk out of church and for no reason at all you said "dang it!" Looks like this mom better watch what she is saying.

The day you had the mother of all blowouts and spent most of the day in your jammies.

Day 4- The day I realized you really do know I'm your momma, and you wanted me to hold you all night long. And I kinda loved it!

a little baby

The truth is I haven't always loved taking newborn pictures. It can be really hard, and take a lot of time. Not to mention posing can be a total nightmare. Once I started lifestyle newborn shoots, I quickly feel in love! After all, little babies really are the best!

The little girl in these pictures is one of my little girl's best friends! She was super excited as I edited these pictures. Over and over she would say, "Mom, Claire!"

I'm so, so happy to have this family as friends! Plus, they have stinkin adorable kids!

cabela's

Day 3- The day we decided to go to Cabela's to look at the "fishy's" and the animals. You were so scared of the Polar Bear. Thirty minutes later, as we got out of the car, you said, "Mom, bear is scar-ee". Yes baby girl, yes they are! You must have been thinking about that scary bear the whole car ride home.

the fort

Day 2: The day we decided to try and enjoy the last bit of Christmas break by building the biggest fort you two have ever seen! Some of us laughed and played, some of us screamed and cried.
