Avery's 4 Year Pictures

I finally took Avery's four year pictures today. I am a few weeks behind, but that is the benefit of taking them myself, we can do it on OUR time! For those of you who don't know, photography has always been a passion of mine. I could not live without a camera...in fact I still remember my parents buying me my first one. Needless to say, I have about a million photo albums! One of my Dad's hobbies is photography as well, so I guess I got it honest. (You should see how many photo albums he has!) However, I did not really get into portrait photography until having kids. It's just that it seemed a little ridiculous to pay an outrageous amount to have their pictures taken when I could do it myself. Especially since every time you turn around you want to have them done.

So anyhow back to Avery! As most of you know Avery was our very special Christmas present. She was born Christmas Day 2004! She was so excited to turn four this year. She kept telling us how big she was going to be after her birthday. She also loves to tell everyone that her birthday is Christmas and that she has the same birthday as Jesus. I guess I would be pretty proud of that too, who better to share your birthday with. What a wonderful little girl we have....we could not of asked for a better Christmas present!
