Here’s a little tribute to my favorite one year oldYeah yeah yeah… I know… I’m not allowed to have favorites but, I’m a rebel!
So, of COURSE you guys remember baby Miles! If you’re in the very small minority… here’s a quick reminder (these photos were taken in October…)
This is my favorite family photo that we’ve EVER taken!!!!
OHHHH!!!
WELLLLLLL…. Betsy is a photographer herself so she takes a ZILLLLLLLION photos of the little guy and blogs new photos of him almost every day… so though that ADORABLE family is ALLLLLL the way in Fort Wayne… it’s like I see them dailyI pulled some off of her blog so you guys can see how BIG he’s getting. On a side note… for you parents out there who have friends and family who live far away… May I HIGHLY suggest you start a blog (check out blogger.com to get started)… it’s SUCH a great way to stay connected
Here he is on his first birthday
Learning animal sounds… “WOOF!” This is my favorite
His dad (AKA John) writes music (how COOL is that?!)… I guess he wanted in on the action. I call this photo “Mix Master Miles”
Look how BIG he’s getting!!!!!!! AHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I’m ready to see that baby!!!!!!!!!!!!
Miles is one of the CUUUUUUTEST baby I’ve EVER seen in my WHOOOOOOOOOOLE life!!!!!!!!!! Like I said earlier… it’s so easy to feel that way about him because I see that baby EVERY day due to Betsy’s blog… she does such an amazing job of keeping us all up to date in the world of Miles… oh, and of course her AWESOME photography
So, why this little ode to Mix Master Miles? I JUST got through reading their blog when I saw THIS video. And to you blog readers out there… you do not have have an option… you HAVE to watch this!!!!! HAVE TOOOOOO!!!!!
Did you guys catch him saying “Bobbi” ?! He said it TWICE! HOW CUTE WAS THAT?!??!?!!!!!!???!? Can’t you just tell how much Betsy & John love having him in their lives? Listening to and watching their reactions to the cuteness that is Miles was my favorite part of the whole thing. Don’t you guys wish you had video like that of you with YOUR parents? I know I sure do! I seriously had the BIGGEST smile on my face for that entire video… and sill do! DON’T YOU?!OH MY GOSH HE IS SUCH THE PERRRRRRRFECT LITTLE BABY! AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!Thanks you guys SO much for putting that up!!!!!!Really… MAN oh man I love my job!
Love you guys!Thanks for making my day… I can’t stop smiling… my smile that’s like Miles’

:::EDITED TO ADD… :::
After seeing my little ode to Miles, Betsy posted a photo of Miles on her blog with the “Bobbi smile.”
And HEEEEEEEEEERE it is
See… he smiles with his bottom teeth, just like I always have… Seriously, ADORABLE!
And to prove that I really HAVE always smiled like that… I found one of me when I was his around his age.So Miles… work it out!!!!!! And how cute are my mom and dad for putting those block letters there?
Mikey’s favorite!The cathedral of Notre Dame is breathtaking… wowzers!
How CUTE is this?! The flower girl sneaking lipstick… My favorite
HI ERIN!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
It was SUCH a warm gorgeous sunny day… It’s OPPOSITE DAY!!! Remember saying that in elementary school. Okay… anyway… These guys were TROOPERS!
Cocktail hour
And… ANOTHER favorite!
The DJ had some caraaaazy lights
SOUTH BEND, Ind. Mikey and I had the opportunity to join Sarah and Shadab at their wedding… oh, and photo it too! Sarah and Shadab are such a neat couple. They were already married in India… and then needed to have their Catholic ceremony in the states. What better place to make that happen!? NOTRE DAME!!!!! GORRRRRGEOUS! Quick side note: I do have to say that I was warned by SO many people that Notre Dame had REALLY strict rules for photographers, however… that was not the case at all! No center aisle and no choir loft… those were pretty much the only restrictions.The wedding coordinator was fantastic and so was the priest. I want to go back! Have I mentioned it’s GORRRRRGEOUS?!
Their big day, though full of love…. was a FAREEEEEEZING drab day in February. HOWEVER, despite the sub zero weather, everyone pulled through and we got some awesome outdoor shots. Sarah’s only request: photos of their bridal party with the gold dome in the background. So, that bridal party WORKED IT OUT! YEAHHHH!!!!!
Sarah and Shadab’s friends and family were such a joy to be around. Their bridal party was SO funny… we had SUCH a blast hanging with them
Thanks for EVERYTHING!
