It’s GJ’s Birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GJ!!

GJ – Maxwell simply does not know yet how incredibly lucky he is to have you as his grandmother.  You are the ultimate.  You hold our family together and carry all that comes with that with a big smile on your face.  You’re always happy to hear my voice on the other end of the phone and will talk to me about nothing for as long as I want.  You’re the strongest person I know – physically and mentally – and I honestly try every day to be a bit more like you.  You’re clever and always thinking of some new “plan” to make our lives better – whether it be a plan for furnishing a room or taking a trip, you make things happen.  You always say that “things just have a way of working themselves out” but most of the time that happens because you made them work!  There’s a reason everyone likes you GJ, you’re just a nice person, plain and simple.  🙂

You are the BESTEST mom in the world, you’re my best pal and I know you’re going to be Maxwell’s best pal too.  He can’t wait to see you again on Tuesday!

And, to make you laugh on your birthday, here are some of the photoshoot “outtakes”!  🙂

Happy Birthday GJ!  We love you!

Stephanie, Robert and Maxwell

Amateur photo shoot

September 13, 2010

Hope you all had a great weekend.  We did.  We took a long stroll, watched some football and cooked some ribs.  Yum!  I also took a very exciting trip to Wal-Mart by myself…never thought I’d be so excited to go to Wal-Mart!!  If only it had been Target…

So, last week I had a photographer come to the house to take some newborn shots of Maxwell.  Let’s just say the day did not exactly go as planned.  Our little model wasn’t wanting to cooperate.  But more on that in a later post.  What the day did do was inspire me to set up my own little photo shoot and get in some good practice taking shots of my sweet baby boy.  He’s 11 days old in these.  Here are my favorites of the ones I took…

I was pretty proud of myself!  🙂
