What if you truly cannot spend money on a wedding but want to have one. Well, here’s how to have a wedding for zero dollars:
Finnegan’s First Year Photo Project : Nine Months
I’m a little late getting to Finn’s 9 month update. We were traveling and then I was hammered with a post-vacation/conference workload and, well, this got pushed to bottom of the list. But hey! I’m only a little late and…
Finnegan’s First Year Photo Project : Eight Months
Finn is 8 months old today! And man, WHAT an awesome time it has been for him this last few weeks. Lots of development and growth. Also, some boo-boos and sickness but mostly, he’s still my cheerful, sweet baby boy. Like I…
Finnegan’s First Year Photo Project : Seven Months
Finn turned 7 months old on Monday and, well, I forgot to take pictures until today. My bad. But y’all – seven months is BANK. Finn’s sitting up on his own, quite the wiggle monster, and starting to give kisses. It’s freaking ADORABLE. He’s still working on crawling and way, way NOT into eating solid foods but loves watching other people eat. Like I did with Melanie, I’ll be doing a little photo project for his first year with monthly photos and a brief rundown of what’s happening in his little world (I’m sharing this in a format that I plan on using in a photo book featuring his first year):
Finnegan’s First Year Photo Project : Six Months
Six months is when all the magic starts happening, people! Today is not only when Finn hits the six month mark but it is also his dad’s 50th birthday! I’m doing this post right after he had his six month well baby check-up (everything looks great) and his latest round of vaccines. Everyone continues to go crazy over his ginger head, blue eyes, and adorable personality. He’s gearing up to eat his first solid food (sweet potato) tonight and his dad’s excited to be the one to feed it to him. Like I did with Melanie, I’ll be doing a little photo project for his first year with monthly photos and a brief rundown of what’s happening in his little world (I’m sharing this in a format that I plan on using in a photo book featuring his first year):
Finnegan’s First Year Photo Project : Five Months
This post is a little bit late since Finn turned five months old while we were on vacation in Walt Disney World last week. But, hey, better late than never, right? Our little guy continues to be the easiest baby and is just so happy all the time. He’s got a delightfully cheerful personality and a little chub on him. Like I did with Melanie, I’ll be doing a little photo project for his first year with monthly photos and a brief rundown of what’s happening in his little world (I’m sharing this in a format that I plan on using in a photo book featuring his first year):
Finnegan’s First Year Photo Project : Four Months
Finn turns four months old tomorrow (and will be spending it getting his latest vaccinations). He’s such an amazing and happy little guy! He’s turning into such a cool dude with a cheerful personality. Like I did with Melanie, I’ll be doing a little photo project for his first year with monthly photos and a brief rundown of what’s happening in his little world (I’m sharing this in a format that I plan on using in a photo book featuring his first year):

Finn turned three months old yesterday and is turning into the coolest little dude! We love him more every day.

Finn’s Newborn Photo Shoot
About 15 days after Finn was born, he did a newborn photo shoot with April Deleon of Pure Happiness Photography. I just wanted something very simple and completely focused on him. Lots of naked baby, lots of light, and lots of sweetness. I also wanted to mimic the style of and a few shots from his sister’s newborn session three years ago. Here’s a few of my favorites:
Finnegan’s First Year Photo Project : Two Months

Getting Baby Ready With Mixbook
I’ve done many posts on preparing for baby and I think that I do a pretty good job of making sure that I have what is needed before the little arrives. However, after the birth of Melanie, I realized that, while I had all the stuff, I had completely neglected to make any preparations for showing her off to the world. I totally forgot to plan for birth announcements, photo books, and photo canvases to showcase all her cuteness. But on my second go around – I was prepared, y’all! I booked a newborn session with Pure Happiness Photography and knew that, when it came time, I would be getting ready with Mixbook!
