I can hardly believe that in just a few short weeks, my baby girl will be 2 years old.  Actually, I can believe it.  She is showing all the telltale signs of being 2…you know, like the words “No!”  and “Mine!” constantly come out of her mouth.  But, truth be told, I really don’t mind the “terrible two’s.”  If you can look past all the sass and become a master at redirecting, it’s actually a pretty fun, spunky, wonderful age.

And besides, (almost) 2 year olds are so cute!  I caught Camryn in a super good mood recently and it seemed like the perfect opportunity for a photo shoot.  These were all taken in my little natural light garage studio.

She is full of personality.  Can you tell?

Of course, I got some of these looks, too.  But I love this picture!

Oh how I love my baby girl.  I’m so glad she cooperated for this photo shoot.  She is so much fun!

Oh man, was I ever excited when the doorbell rang this afternoon!  It was my friend, the UPS man, delivering my new photo toys.  I decided to spend my birthday money on a handy-dandy backdrop stand.  I still plan to do most of my shoots outdoors, but it will be nice to have the stand to set up inside with babies.  And it’s an option if someone wants more studio-type pictures.  So, of course, I had to set it up and play with it right away even though it was rainy and gross outside.  But the garage was perfect!  The boys were busy riding their bikes and scooters (even in the drizzle…they have so much energy and outside time is a must!), so Camryn was my only little model.  She actually did really well, sitting and cooperating as much as an 18 month old can.

After awhile, I think she started to get bored.  I have a whole series of pictures with this exact expression.  Too funny!

So then I just asked her “where’s dada?” and I got this one.  It turned out to be my favorite of them all.  She does this all the time!  So cute.

It was just like Christmas here today!  I love the UPS man.  He never disappoints.
