So once again, I'm a couple months late at posting Kimber's pictures on the blog.
Kimber's 12 month pictures were taken in May. It was a hot & humid day. Nick was in the fields planting, so he couldn't be there. And for the most part, Kimber wanted nothing to do with the pictures. Especially the outdoor pictures. She cried/whined most of the time and we didn't get very many smiles out of her. I was a sweaty mess carrying her around and trying to get her to smile, so my hair looks gross in most of the pictures.
When I first got the pictures back...I didn't love them. All I saw was no smiles from Kimber, my gross hair and my fat arms. But three month later, when I look at them, I love them. I love that I'll always have these pictures of me & my baby girl together. It doesn't matter if they aren't 'Pinterest perfect'. They tell a story of Kimber at this stage of her life...and so they are perfect to me!
I found this dress at Target and fell in love with it! I knew it would be perfect for spring pictures. Her headband from the same etsy shop I bought her headband for her 9 month pictures - it's so adorable! And I found the chair thru a little shop in Ankeny that refinishes furniture. She matched the aqua in Kimber's headband perfectly! It also matches the colors in her bedroom, so I plan on putting it in her room with a little table for a coloring/reading nook.
I wanted outdoor pictures with lots of flowers, but unfortunately it was a cold spring and there weren't many flowers in bloom yet. But Caleb found this wooded area behind our house and it worked perfectly for pictures!
This is my favorite picture from this first batch of pictures! I love her smile!!
