The Father's Day Photo Shoot

You know how some projects seem so easy until you are in the midst of them and realize it was a bigger undertaking then you imagined? My original plan for a Father's Day gift for Colby from Camryn was 4 simple pictures- with Camryn holding a different sign in each, "Happy", "Father's", "Day" and "love, Camryn". Approximately 75 pictures and 1 hour later I had a boatload of photos of Camryn eating signs, waving them above her head, dropping them, and shaking her head so fast from side to side that it looked like an optical illusion. Alas, after some picking and choosing I decided on the final four...but I wanted to show off some of the rest as well (more as a testament to the work that truly went into trying to keep a 8 month still).

Playing Wears a Girl Out!



Poolside Cutie!

Summer is officially here...I am sure I am not the first one to point it out but I figured I might as well make the official announcement.  June has been a busy and celebratory month thus far. I celebrated my 25th Birthday on June 8th and Colby and I marked our one year anniversary with a night out to dinner and a movie on June 11th. Camryn had a celebration all her own as I got to squeeze her little baby belly into her swimsuit and slather her in sunscreen for her first swimming experience...she has already gone twice. On Sunday Camryn and I headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Waldrop's for a BBQ and swimming...unfortunately Colby had to work and missed out on the festivities but he did get to go swimming with Camryn on Monday! After trying on her first pair of "swim diapers" adorned with Little Mermaid decorations (I think I was a little too excited for the Little Mermaid part but that was the movie and the soundtrack of my childhood) I sun screened Camryn up while she attempted to eat the bottle (as seen in the pictures). Looking like a miniature pink version of Gilligan or the Gorton's fisherman according to my Dad we hit up the pool. It looks like Camryn is going to me a little fish!
