Serious....Serious in Love....
me & Bella having some Mommy & Daughter LOVE!
There is a reason why I'm posting these pictures. Pictures that I'm actually in. Not because I think I'm all that and a trip to Hollywood. No. It's because I'm actually tired of being worried about how I look and not taking or having very many photos of me with my children. I have very few pictures of me and my babies when they were babies, and I have myself to blame. Precious opportunities to capture on paper, lost because of my silliness. Well no more I say! One day I won't be here and there will be hardly any pictures of them and their mama. So ladies, hand over the camera and get in those photos! Please. You'll be happier you did.
Awww great pics! I totally understand where you are coming from....on another note...I TOTALLY forgot your daughter's name was Bella! LOL Where is Edward lol.

BEAUTIFUL! I'm proud of you for doing this! It IS hard to get yourself in a pic. I guess most of us moms feel the same way. So beautiful. Can't wait to see more, and some on scrapbook pages!

I keep having to ask for my photo to be taken as I am always behind the camera and all too aware that there are hardly any photos of me. I'm definitely making an effort to rectify this :)
Gorgeous, precious photos of the two of you.

Aleida, you look marvelous! And your daughter too...two gorgeous creatures. You made me realize, that our kids will want pics of use together someday down the road when we are apart or {God forbid}, gone. Going home to photo op with both my kids! Thanks Aleida!

You are beautiful Aleida! And so is your daughter.
Thank you for the reminder to be included in those moments with our children. Madi and I have this habit of taking photos of just us two. One of my favorite things to do with her.

Aleida ... you & your family are beautiful.
Your post is a great PSA for mama's to just get in the photos already!

These are very sweet photos, Aleida. I wish I could get some good photos of my girls and myself. They are NOT fans of the camera, lol.

First of all...I take great photos! Second, you are beautiful and the love of my life. I love these pictures of you and baby girl.

Aleida, you will be so glad you have done this. Plus, you should be in photos - you are gorgeous. Believe it. :o)

Love those pictures especially the 4th and last. So sweet.
Posted by: Naomi | August 07, 2008 at 02:42 PM
You look fabulous! Keep taking those pics or letting others take them. She will be so happy to have them, both now and when she's all grown up (can't speak for those teen years, because humans just lose all ability to be reasonable during those years). Thanks for sharing!
