This handsome graduating high school senior, Dylan, used to be a cute baby that I used to BABYSIT for! Ugh. I feel old. How does that happen? Time goes by so fast! Enjoy your college years Dylan, they will certainly fly by!

Thanks Dylan, Good luck and get that drivers licenses already! :)

Crib and changing table assembled - Check

Large RED warning stickers removed - Not so much. Call me crazy but is putting huge red stickers on a eco-friendly crib with who knows what kind of glue a little rude? If the person that has this job is reading this right now, I have a message for you but I don't think I should put it on my blog. After trying to get them off with safe products and cleaners I resorted to Goo Gone (well I didn't of course, hubby did that) and the stickers are winning the battle so far. UGH. Suggestions welcome.

Crib mattress purchased - Check

Ceiling fan up and running - Check! Thanks Dad. This project, much like the paint, took two tries with two trips to Lowes. It's always the stuff that you think will be easy.

Ikea dresser assembled - Check! I'm so used to putting ikea stuff together now I'm thinking of getting a job there if this whole photography thing doesn't work out.

Getting a STEAL on organic crib sheets and changing table covers - CHECK! You gotta love a clearance sale you're lucky enough to come across!

Next projects: Continuing to battle the stickers or should I say glue from the stickers. Picking out/getting the fabric for the seat cusion that I'm having made for the rocker (more on this later).

With the fall season wrapping up and my belly growing I'll be posting less portraits. I do plan to keep the blog going with updates on my pregnancy, cool products & finds that I haven't had time to post, camera tips, etc. If there's any questions you would like me to answer, like what camera equipment is in my bag, specific camera tips or anything you would like to see me post about please let me know by emailing me at kelli@purpletreephotography.com.

I've been taking some major heat for not taking any bump photos. With the third trimester just around the corner this is the first photo of my bump. I know, I know, I'm a photographer, how could I have not taken any! Well, it's easy, I'm never IN photos! :) So here's the tips of my toes, goodbye toes, I'll miss you!

Thank you to the "B" family!
