Aubrey at 11 Months

Every month I take a new set of pictures of my baby girl. I like to be able to gauge her growth and see just how much she has changed in a month.

Sometimes our photo shoots are awesome! Aubrey is cooperative and gives me the cutest smiles. I love it when the pictures turn out just right.

Then there are those times that she is just not into it. This week I took Aubrey's 11 month pictures, and I just had to laugh at some of the pictures I got. Here is one of my favorite blooper photos:

What a happy face, right?

Taking pictures of my girl has definitely gotten harder since she started crawling and standing up. She just doesn't want to hold still and takes exception at being expected to sit still to have her picture taken.

Oh the torture! How dare you try to take my picture mom!
Check out this one from last month.

I have to admit that I always get a couple of pictures that I love. It is much easier for me to take my baby's pictures myself than it would be for me to take her to a studio. Plus we can always try again if I don't get anything I like.

Here are some of my favorites from our photo shoot this week. Can you believe my baby girl is 11 months old already? What a sweetheart!

I love all of her cute little teeth and her bright blue eyes. You will notice that in the above picture I had to let her stand up next to a table because that is the only way she would hold still.

This next picture is nearly a miracle to me. Last month I could not get one picture of her sitting still, so I am really happy with this one. My favorite place to take pictures is outside, so I really can't wait until it is warm enough to move our photo shoots outside.

In less than a month my baby girl will be one! I can hardly believe it. We love our baby girl! She brings so much joy and happiness to our lives every day. That's why she is our little sunshine.
