Senior pics, model pics, what's the difference?

Our bro is a hot tamale! What do you guys think of Cole's pics? There were so many I liked and I wanted to share them all with you! Feedback would be awesome... which ones are best? Should I make some b&w? Mom and Cole, I would really appreciate hearing from you the most!

I enjoyed doing this photo shoot a ton. Its nice to just be able to shoot without having to entertain and keep up great conversation. I especailly loved when Cole was just playing his guitar and I was just shooting away. We work well together, what can I say? I think they turned out awesome... thanks for the opportunity, Cole.

Baby Ella-to-be

Just thought I'd give everyone a quick baby update! At 38 weeks I am considered full term, but that doesn't mean much...

The baby has dropped, which simply means that her head presses on my pelvic bones and her shoulders are wedged between my hips. Soemtimes she hits nerves in my hips that send pulses through my legs. Walking is fun. The pregnancy waddle is a true condition, but I concentrate and try to abstain in public. Unfortunately, I have not dilated or thinned at all, so we're just playing the waiting game! At this point I am not getting my hopes up for an early delivery and am just praying for a Turkey Day at home, baby or no.

Also... it became apparent last night that we are still undecided on a middle name!!! I love Ella Mae, but Mike is not convinced. Anybody have other ideas?

The Cutest Kids Contest

Here is the final product of all the best pictures. I edited them and I think they look

more vivid and colorful now. What do ya think? Mostly this is for you, Mom.

When you come by on your way to Lauren's, I'll give you the CD and send one with you for Lauren (if you want any). Some I just love of Maddie

and some I love of Emrie, so I edited each pic I liked of either even if its not great of

both of them. They are all just too cute! I don't

think there are ANY kids cuter then Maddie and Emrie!

(Hopefully you can click on this pic and get it bigger, if not sorry they're small)
