Valentine Photo Shoot

My poor, little children! I have become determined to better document their lives than I have thus far. Neither one has a baby book yet. Is that pathetic? L's first word? MA-MA (of course)- atleast that is the way I remember it! Jack's started crawling at- what- 2 months? Oops...

So, in an effort to utilize the shiny, new digital SLR my in-laws gave us for Christmas- and to create a lasting memory for my 19-month old and his 3-year-old big sis, we are having a Valentine photo shoot tomorrow! And the lovely photos will be the star in their very own valentines from Mommy's collection! How sweet!

To make the event more special (aka. prettier to look at), I collected a few props this afternoon:

1. Construction paper (to make pretty, red hearts),
2. Hemp (to string said pretty, red hearts),
3. Glittery XOXO garland (in case pretty red heart strands don't turn out as expected),
4. Big heart-shaped lollipops (to bribe children with -ahem- I mean, to add valentine charm)
5. Red shirts & heart-covered sweater (to bring it all together).

Now, of course I'll let you know how it turns out. And perhaps even share some of the better photos.

Have a great night! Wish me luck!

UPDATE! Here are the photos... atleast I had fun!
