January 31, 2010{Week 3}-Belle Vernon Area Family Photography
January 29, 2010Week 3 of my project 365 is complete!! Nearly a month complete! Wahoo!
“Bet you can’t find me momma…..”

Lovin’ on his peanut butter cookies.

“Hi Weston, it’s me Cade……I wouldn’t let them hurt you……you’re my little brother and favorite friend.”

“Let me give you my mad face for this one. ”

Making pancakes at gramma’s

Weston’s new favorite word is the word car. He can see the cars from his bedroom window so often you will find him there.

Playing peek over the tub…….hope he doesn’t figure out too soon that I hover there with a camera….I just love his toothy smile!

January 22, 2010I am very excited to share this post! Meet little miss “A”, all of 5 weeks. I gotta admit, 5 weekers can go either way pretty easy! They are stronger, more opinionated, and less sleepy than a typical 2 weeker, but miss “A” was a champ! I just adore how these turned out!! Enjoy your sneak peek “C” family. You have a beautiful family! I will have the rest ready for you very shortly!




My heart melts with this one………
….and this one! Safe in the arms of daddy!

January 21, 2010Another week in my babies lives……
Doesn’t everyone use cookies for eyeballs?!

My smart, stubborn little boy…..

who certainly gives me a run for my money but how can you resist this face!

Or this one?!?! He thinks he is–so funny—when he completely saturates everything, including me and Cade!

Really, who says jump-a-leens- (aka-trampoline) are for jumping?? They make great forts! And yes, in case you are wondering, your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you….he has super static hair!!

Mid “cheese”….

I love this eyes and lips! No idea where those eyes came from, but I am not complaining!

January 17, 20105 Month old little miss P had one of the cutest little smiles! Such a happy baby! Thanks again “S” family for making the trip down to see me. You have a beautiful family! Enjoy your sneak peek– the rest will be ready really shortly!






Post #2 of my 365 Project-{Pittsburgh Baby Photographer}
January 14, 2010Week #2 is under my belt, and I am really lovin this! The kids….maybe not so much…but I know that I am going to really enjoy looking back on these when they are big!
My first experience with the self timer and trying to capture a shot with both my kids. So yeah…..even though this is my “no pressure” project, this was TOUGH! This shot was taken a split second after I darted across the room for Weston!

I am a sucker of anything I can get of them together! They are best buds!

Love that he is completely lost in thought, watching the trucks outside, that he didn’t even notice me there. Gotta love those pouty lips!

Ironic enough, this very day is the day that he became a crib jumper!!!

Sometimes the only place I can get Cade to agree to a picture is when he is in the tub. Thats fine by me though–I love tub pictures!

January 13th, and already I get the “enough already” look from him!

I am a sucker for itty baby parts. They grow up way too fast to remember how little these hands were once!

{Project 365-Post #1}-Dana Monticelli Photography
January 7, 2010And so it begins! I elected to do a 365 project with my kiddos this year! I have never tried this before because I always figured that I wouldn’t stick with it, but this year, I am up for the challenge. I am calling this a no-pressure project…shooting whatever strikes me for the day. Some days it may be hanging out of the couch, some days capturing them camping out in their forts, others maybe playing outside. But I am vowing to take more snapshots of my babies and I think that this is a great way to begin!
Welcome to week one!
