18 Months

This is a seriously late post but better late than never! I can't believe my baby isn't a baby anymore, he's turning into a little man! 18 months already??!! I remember his birthday like it was YESTERDAY!! Alex is changing so much and is such a big boy now. A few of my favorite things he does:

He's a helper, he loves making huge messes but has learned to help clean up when he's done he is even seen doing it in nursery when it's time to leave.

-He gives the best hugs and kisses. He comes up to us like a million times a day to give us kisses and hugs he even pats us on the back when he's hugging us it's quite funny.

-He's a talker, the kid has a huge vocabulary and will talk your head off. He is a little socialite too. He's seen starting conversations with complete strangers almost daily! A few of his new favorite words are Moon, Go, Jesus, Church, Shoes, Yummy, and Buh-Bye, Ouch, Oh and Balloon the kid loves balloons.


-He holds our hand when we cross the street, learning to cross his arms during prayers, and feeding himself with a fork and spoon!! That last one is one of my favorites because he REFUSES to eat if we feed him!

-He's got a memory better than me. He associates things with certain places.. like the bank; he knows when we walk in because he asks for a sucker almost immediately.

-That boy can dance and dance and dance. He even gets all low and shakes his butt probably the cutest thing ever.

-He eats non-stop. The kid is growing like a weed, his 2t pants don't fit him! I mean seriously kid you're only 18 months stop growing! I can't afford you at the rate your going! He's once again off the charts at the doctor.. but seriously should I really be surprised my husband is 6'5.

-Trying to get the body parts down.. he know his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth but doesn't have the rest figured out. He thinks it's funny to point at them and laughs at himself a lot.

-He's definitely a photographer's child because capturing cute pictures of him is nearly impossible he only cooperates when being bribed.

His obsession started at 4 months..

-And he still to this day loves fans, he loves them since he was a baby baby
(notice my picture quality in that first one!)

-He asks tons of questions, his favorite is "what is it" and "why" kid could ask me questions all day if I let him!

-He's so happy and outgoing. I love it. He never has an issue meeting new people and makes friends easily. He's got a ton of friends in our neighborhood!! And a girlfriend... possibly future wife!


I have a shoot with my friend (she's a photographer too) and her daughter (Alex's future wife) and I'm bringing Alex and we're taking pictures of them both together. I've been waiting for the shoot to post these pictures but since I've been sick we've been having to reschedule! I can't wait to post them they're both 18 months!

Anyways... I promise to post more frequently since I've noticed no one checks the blog anymore. It's ok I still love you guys!!

Hello world.

I'm really busy trying to get work done but I don't want to leave you guys hanging =] I'm going to be conjoining my family and photography blog and will HOPEFULLY have it up this week. I know I've been saying this for the last MONTH! But I've been working really hard being a photographer, mom, cook, maid.. etc. Thanks for your patients I'm sure you are really dying not hearing from me!

Highlights:

I got my logo & business cards designed and the girl who did it did a fabulous job, and I made a new friend!

I got a new camera that I was dying for... I feel like a real pro now, and John bought me the lens I've been talking about for months! My next plan is to get my studio set up! Christmas came early for me.. I don't expect Santa bringing me much this year!

We got new furniture!! So exciting since we've been married three years and never bought much. We got a new dining room table, a couch and two chairs for our sitting room, and a whole bedroom set for a deal. I love all the sales going on!! I feel blessed to have such a great husband!!

John is working so hard and hopefully going to have some wonderful things happen soon so keeps us in your prayers!!

Alex well.. boy he's a crazy boy. I won't say much because I'm going to do a 18 month post.. but he's changing so much! It's so crazy to me because he's such an outgoing talker. I love him so much =]


I tried to post a ton of pictures of Alex but blogger kept washing the colors out.. so here is just one!

And that is that.. I see a few of you want to see more pictures of the sealing I posted them all on facebook so just type in my email: leahferguson321@gmail.com and add me! Blogger takes way to long to upload!
