I can't post any of these pictures without a HUGE thank you to my super awesome friend, Melissa (of
http://www.melissakircher.com/). On top of being an incredibly talented artist and photographer, she is an absolutely gorgeous, intelligent, and inspiring Christian woman. And as it turns out, a really funny blogger. Check out her blog on marriage and such at

More shoutouts: Yes, I did pick out two sets of coordinating (not matching) outfits for the photos and I'm happy with the outcome. I owe this to my
not in real life bumpie friend, Leah.

Side note: On the way to the shoot, Andrew was griping about the argyle sweater. Not.His.Style. I told him that I didn't feel like he appreciated my efforts to make sure our pictures looked good and we looked put together. He sarcastically said that he wished I put as much effort into a home cooked meal. ummm yea, he said THAT. And THAT marked the end of me calling him in the evenings to pick up dinner because I just didn't feel like cooking. Save your, "OH NO HE DIDN!"s because honestly, he deserves a home cooked meal. He works so hard for us - and well, I can't use the "new mom" excuse forever, right?
Oh, and I couldn't help but bring back The Flower:
Sorry Adalyn. One day, when I'm in a nursing home and you have to come groom me because I can't groom myself, you can find an obnoxious headband and pay me back. I probably won't know any different.
Some of my favorites:
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!
