Valentine Photo Shoot

I know we are biased, but we were SO pleased with how well Miss Shelby's little Valentine photo shoot turned out. :) It was totally last-minute and impromptu, so we didn't really have high hopes for it...but we were thrilled with the outcome! The cutest part of the pictures to us was how she was kicking her leg up in several of the photos, and it's something we'll probably always remember. Shelby is very weird about textures, but she's recently started to like the feel of grass. But this was one of the first times she felt wet grass (it had rained the day before, so the grass was still a bit damp) on her bare feet, and she did not like it AT ALL. So she kept one foot in the air for the first several minutes we were outside...it was almost as if she couldn't bear the thought of having both feet touching the damp grass at the same time. Oh, the horror! ;) But despite her displeasure with the grass, she was still as happy as could be!

The tutu that Shelby is sporting in these photos was actually a birthday gift she received from a sweet blog friend of mine. Molly from This Wood House has a sweet little girl who was born just a day before Shelby. And as if that wasn't enough of a connection, her hubby is also in the Air Force.** Needless to say, we became fast friends. :) Thank you again for this precious gift, Molly!

Hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day yesterday!

**Molly's hubby is actually deployed right now, and I'm sure she would covet your prayers!
