Another Sweet, Little Kiss is on the Way!

Another Sweet, Little Kiss is on the Way! 

Surprise! We couldn't be more excited to OFFICIALLY announce that another Sweet, Little Kiss will be arriving in our loving arms officially in August 2015, and what better time of year to announce it than Valentine's Day (the day of LOVE and KISSES)! 

We are now officially 14 weeks and well on our way to meeting this little love! It has been a crazy few months but they have been filled with excitement! I will be recapping soon for sure! I cannot even fathom the fact that we created the most perfect tiny person less than two years ago, and exactly 18 months to the DAY...another one was made just especially for us by our gracious Father! We could not feel more blessed to have yet another one of His perfect creations entrusted to us! 

Our sweet, little Kiss #1 is now nearly 21 months (2 in May) and will in more ways than one be the most perfect Big Sister a sibling could ask for...I truly believe God sent us this sweet, little Kiss #2 with His perfect timing (not ours) for our Kinsley in so many more ways than one. 

For our announcement pictures I just had to come up with a fun Valentine's Theme to announce our news and tying in Kiss just seemed to work beautifully! I ordered the shirts and headbands, worked with the announcement designer (Valerie at shopPIXELSTIX was amazing) to find the perfect design, and my sweet brother Chet came over to brave the dreaded toddler shoot for our photos! I am not going to lie...I had a vision but KNEW we would have to roll with it and take what we could get! It didn't help matters she had woken up at 6am that morning and was grumpy as all get out when we were ready for pictures... but somehow we managed to succeed (and majorly FAIL at the same time) but we had fun capturing some fun memories and I was truly excited about how they turned out! 

Momma and Kinsley Silliness

Happy Valentine's Day from the Kiss Family! 

Our Little Christmas Cutie

  

Due to our intense Winter Ice Storm of 2013 in DFW that lasted nearly a week before it melted, our lovely (EARLY scheduled) Christmas pics of sweet Kinsley had to be rescheduled 2 times. Then it got soooo close to Christmas I thought welllll maybe we should just save our little JCPenny groupon for a couple months from now…But then I got stuck on how cute her first Christmas pics be in the fun little outfit and LEGWARMERS I had planned for her…so I couldn't resist. 

PLUS it was a gift from my Mom & Dad and I thought it would be a fun First Christmas memory to go together to have some shots of our little sweetness shot! Soooo, Decemeber 23 we went! 

We had so much fun and the pictures came out soooo super SWEET! I am so glad we had the chance to capture a little magic of the season with our little sweetness! 

We Hope Your Holiday Was Filled With As Much

SWEETNESS as OURS was! 

You just can't get any sweeter than this…

and who doesn't love a little holiday spirit to help you ring in the New Year!?!

Cherished Memories of our Sweet 6/7 Month Old!

Mustard and Charcoal Gray in ALL its GLORY! 

Gotta stick with our theme here of yellow and gray with a Fall twist lol! 

I must brag a little…I couldn't find ANYTHING in the color scheme for her little outfit….soooo popped into Hobby Lobby found some perfect material and along with my Mother-In-Law sewed up a cute, little pillowcase dress for her to sport! While I had planned all of the outfits for an outdoor shoot…because of the ICE storm we had that was a no go since the ice was melting and ground was soppy! Who wants their fuzzy, white boots stomping in mud…no little girl of ours!! Haha! Then I just matched Jeff and I around it! Now I am a pro seamstress of these little cute numbers thanks to my crafty Mother-In-Law! 

 Pretty sure this little lady is full of personality and silliness…when taking this pic she could not keep her tiny feet still…low and behold the quirkiest picture you could ever capture!

 Just about the sweetest pictures you could ever capture….Precious in Pearls! 

 Our Crazy, Crawling Cutie! 

 She loves to reach out and say 'Hi'

 Cannot get that tongue to stay in to save our lives…it's just her little quirk and we love it!

 Who smiles like that lol….

 Ummmm could you have a more priceless Mommy and Me moment…I will CHERISH this moment forever! 

And yes these are the SAME 15 images but look so different in black and white sooooo I decided to post them too! 

I must say that things work out they way they are supposed to. Though we did not have the fabulously, rich outdoor background that I had hoped for buuuuuut the trade off was sooooo worth it, as we would have never captured these amazing moments of our gorgeous, little lady! 

Look at the comparison shot she got with her newborn pic and now!

Sooooooo happy with the outcome! We love Melissa from CHerished Memories and the amazingness she captured! When she posted our shoot her blog her sweet words made me tear up….

"This is one of *those* families. One of those perfect ones. One of those families who are beautiful inside and out. And their baby girl…? Good gracious! Have you ever seen a more beautiful 6 month old baby????"
