Its so hard to believe that my sweet little ladybug girl is one year old. She is walking and talking and she’s just not a baby anymore. My little ladybug girl has many nicknames: Lucy Lu, Lu Lu, Lucy Duecy, Ladybug, Peanut….but she also has another very special nickname that I call her quite often: LUCIAmonster. My friends say, “She’s so sweet and quiet! How can you call her a monster?”
“Oh, just wait and you’ll see,” I say. And in the blink of an eye, she has wiggled her way out of the highchair, freeing herself of the seatbelt like Houdini and is standing, not on the seat, but on top of the highchair TRAY! I quickly grab her, put her down on the floor and with just one more blink of the eye, she has unlocked the dishwasher and has a butcher knife in each hand! I am not kidding. That is my LuciaMONSTER.
Everyone tells you how quickly time flies with your children and before you know it, they are all grown up. Just like that, my ladybug girl went from a baby to a toddler in the blink of an eye. Well anyway, since I am always clicking away with my own camera, I have never actually done “formal” pictures of my kids. Sometimes when I hear people talking about how they have professional photos taken at all the important milestone ages, I think, “oops, I didn’t do that.” ….
So….I did a little impromptu shoot of Lucia and I think these photos can serve as her ONE YEAR photos. I think they are pretty sweet. I love the sun flare.
