"And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while."

Oh Bruno, Bruno, Bruno. You make my heart melt. Seriously, Bruno Mars is amazing. This is day 12 of my 365 project and week 2 of my 52 week project and the lyric for the week from The Photographer Within comes from Bruno Mars song "Just the way you are." The lyric is as stated in the title,

"And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while."

Kind of like this....

I love when my girl smiles and is happy. We are so lucky that she is such a happy go lucky babe. It doesn't take much to get her giggling, laughing and rolling around on the floor and I cannot believe she is going to be 9 months old tomorrow. Time really does go by too fast. Ryan said to her tonight that she needs to get to crawling and I said no! Haha. Then we would never be able to stop her.

Charlie and I had fun goofing around today when we got home from lunch with Aunt Theresa, Aunt Courtney & Cousin Molly. Here are some pictures from our play time.

Happy Sunday! Hope everyone has a great week! :-)

"Turn the clock to zero, honey. We're starting up a brand new day."

Good Morning! "Turn the clock to zero, honey. We're starting up a brand new day."

I know, I know, you're probably like huh? Well as a part of this photography journey I'm on, I'm also doing a 52 week photo challenge with some of the ladies over at The Photographer Within that incorporates song lyrics in photographs. This week was Sting's Brand New Day lyric. So, this is day 3 of my 365 project and week 1 of the 52 week challenge. Whew. This year is gonna be fun!

This morning Charlie was a little fussy because she's had a cold. (She always has a cold. Daycare is building up that immune system!) So around 5am she wouldn't go back to sleep in her crib so I brought her into bed with me. Crazy husband was up at 130am to go duck hunting so he was already gone. Well anywho, I was hoping she would sleep a little longer this morning so I could get some daylight into our room because the lighting in my house SUCKS! (I can't wait to take Sarah's On Camera Flash workshop on the 20th) I managed to get this image about a minute after she woke up at 8am. FYI, she never sleeps this late on the weekends. She must get that from her momma.

Charlie wasn't really ready to start a brand new day this morning but momma has to work so we had to get rolling!

Well there you have it. Week 1 of the P52 and day 3 of the 365. Hope everyone has a great day!
