My talented little sister managed to squeeze in some digital processing between morning sickness, birthdays and the usual busy mom schedule so that I could show you all the rest of these photos she took of our little family. Thanks LJ!
***for those of you who asked-I used the Project Runway Simplicity pattern 2725 for my dress and added the ruffle myself (very easy to do btw).

Lovely. What a wonderful gift, these pictures, to remember a moment that is so precious. You have a beautiful family. My favorite is your son walking away from the camera and those red suspenders.

thanks Denise…the fit of the dress is a bit off (and the hem needs re-doing) but I learned a lot and I like the look. I used the Project Runway Simplicity pattern 2725 and added the ruffle myself (very easy).
