My little guy had his one year “smash the cake” session with his mama. I usually despise food on the face pictures, but when you’re talking cake and babies, it’s a perfect combination. D was hysterical. I wanted a picture of him just sitting next to the cake, but he dived right in. As you can see by the photos here, he did quite a good job at smashing his cake.
My future sister in law is a professional cake maker/decorator and she made his adorable cake. She works at Market Place and also does AMAZING wedding cakes as well.
the perfect little cake…
ahhh the drool….
hmmmm… I think this might look good on me…
laying on the cake might be fun
SUGAR RUSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh yeah, it’s THAT good.
so pleased with himself..
SUCCESS!
A perfectly smashed cake.
and the storyboard I made…
I’ve found a really great song artist that I really admire. Her name is Francesca Battistelli and she’s a new artist (well, at least to the radio stations that play her music). This song has become my theme song lately. As some of you know, I’m a Christian. I trust my life to Christ. I know that He is the one who is in control. I get worked up at times and think that I need to do more, that I need to work harder. I often forget that He’s the one who has it all planned out and I don’t need to worry so much.
This doesn’t have much to do with photography, but it’s a bit about me. I hope you don’t mind 🙂
So here’s my favorite song…
I’m Letting Go
My heart beats, standing on the edge
But my feet have finally left the ledge
Like an acrobat
There’s no turning back
Chorus
I’m letting go
Of the life I planned for me
And my dreams
Losing control
Of my destiny
Feels like I’m falling and that’s what it’s like to believe
So I’m letting go
This is a giant leap of faith
Trusting and trying to embrace
The fear of the unknown
Beyond my comfort zone
Chorus
I’m letting go
Of the life I planned for me
And my dreams
Losing control
Of my destiny
Feels like I’m falling and that’s what it’s like to believe
So I’m letting go
Giving in to your gravity
Knowing You are holding me
I’m not afraid
Feels like I’m falling and that’s what it’s like to believe
Feels like I’m falling and this is the life for me

These handsome young men were a kick in the pants. They were little charmers and had no problems smiling for me. I don’t even think they noticed I was there since they were having so much fun. The beach is a perfect spot for kid’s photos. They get to throw sticks in the water and chase each other. They get to dig in the sand and get all dirty. Moments like these are perfect and I get to be the lucky one that gets to capture them.
Thanks W boys for letting me hang out and capture your day!
I hope you enjoy your preview…
I met up with my sister in law for a play date at the beach with our kiddos (and our cameras in tow of course). K was in school, so it was just me and the boys. I wanted to get some pics of Mr. D for his first birthday. Course he was more interested in the sand than smiling at mom, but he had fun. Mr. I was in heaven with all the sticks to throw. It’s not often he gets to throw things and not get in trouble for it.
The flooding caused the entire beach layout to change with all the extra driftwood. It was calm and clear and a perfect day.
yes, he never stops drooling…. poor kid…
