Pictures!!

SO with digital cameras and good cameras on phones, pictures are at our fingertips within minutes!  We are spoiled.  We also don't think as much before we take a picture if we really want it.  Before digital cameras we only had 24 or so pictures for each roll of film.  We would think about which shots were important.  Now I feel like I miss some shots because I don't always think about it before.

I went to get my sons 6 month old pictures today.  He did great!! I am sooo happy with how the pictures came out.  About 15 minutes after he sat for the pictures I was able to pick out what poses I wanted and 15 minutes after that I was walking out with the pictures in hand!!  SO much better than waiting a few weeks like we used to have to do. 

As I sat there waiting for my pictures, I looked around the small studio.  There were all kinds of pictures on the walls.  (New born, family shots, toddlers, wedding, engagement, pregnant women....)  I realized all the pictures I DON"T have.  I never got engagement pics done.  I never got professional (or even just home shots) of me when I was pregnant.  I kind of wish I did now.  I also know there are not many of me and my baby because my hubby does not take many pictures.  I realize I need to make sure I get these pictures because he is only going to be this little, my only child, maybe my only boy, right now. 

To all of you ladies who are pregnant or thinking about becoming pregnant, get pregnancy shots now.  Even if you don't go somewhere to get professional ones taken, take ones at home.  I don't have any which focus on my belly!  At the time I didn't think I would want to see any real pics of me pregnant.  I was wrong!!  I have a friend, who has 3 children.  With each pregnancy she has done something new. I guess next time I will get pregnancy shots taken!
