Sugar Baby! {part one}

I have really dropped the ball on my photography the last several months.  My life is so hectic these days with work and some personal/family issues.  Then when my computer crashed and I lost all my photo editing software, I just stopped taking photos.  I took a lot on my phone (and posted them to instagram) but my good cameras were collecting dust.

However, when Kate lost both of her front teeth, I knew I wanted to get some cute photos before they came in. It is really important to me to document our family's milestones.  I always think of this blog as our family photo album for the kids when I am gone.  I seriously envision them showing our grandkids posts and telling them about our family traditions.

Plus, it is such a short window of childhood when you are toothless and I wanted some cute pictures! I found a few shots of when Harry lost both of his within a week too.

He had a scrape on his nose  (right between his eyes) and it was healing.  I am so glad I did not photoshop that out as I look back.  It also tells the story of that part of life (wresting and Judo).

So about 2 weeks ago, I took Kate to her favorite little cupcake shop to mark this milestone.  Apparently, Harry had a root beer float to mark his loss of his front baby teeth!

Kate loves this cupcake shoppe.  It is a special place for her but we only go once or twice a year.
It is called Sugarbaby's and she had her 3rd birthday party there in fact.

I took 304 photos y'all.  That is why this is a two-part post.
Don't worry, I am not going to post them all.  But am I am going post a bunch.

 Kate had me laughing so hard.  She is really funny.

I love how seriously she studied all the sweet options in the case.









And finally she choses one:)










She was making silly faces for me!

After the cupcake a serious sugar buzz kicked in and she danced around the place.  I'll be back tomorrow to post those shots.

Thank you for the continued suggestions for Harry.  I plan to try some of them this week (especially the M-grain essential oil).
