I’ll eat you up, I love you so

A few weeks ago we met with the fabulously talented Ashley Slater for some updated family photos. I am beyond thrilled with the results and can’t wait to display them in every room of our house!

You probably know Ashley from her blog, The Sweet Season. And if you don’t….well….get on it!

She captured Hudson’s constant arm waiving (when he gets excited) perfectly!

Now for the hard part…which one should we blow up in to a canvas print?

    all of these pictures are perfection! but as far as a canvas-sized one goes, I think the "little feets" one or the wagon one! 🙂

    These are great! I have been following your blog for quite a while. I would choose Model Baby if you're looking for only baby but if you're looking for a family portrait, I'd go with Baby Feet.

    Super cute photos! I love, love, love your boots!

    I think I like the first one to blow up on canvas. It is a tough choice, they all look good.

It really is true when they say the days are long It really is true when they say the days are long but the years are short. One day I’m struggling to carry two babies at a time while wrangling a toddler and then next minute they are all off to school and practices and friends’ houses. With all three kids in school we’ve been thinking a lot about their futures and how we are going to one day pay for college. We set up a Michigan Education Trust 529 plan for each of our kids when they were babies and I am SO happy we did! With a MET account, we can pay for future college tuition at today’s prices. With MET’s discounted age-based pricing the earlier you start, the more you are able to save! Plus grandparents and other loved ones can contribute to my kids’ accounts too! With MET you get back what you put in if your child chooses a different path and the money goes with you if your child goes to school out of state. You can even transfer it to immediate family members and all contributions to MET plans are tax deductible! To learn more about how to set up a MET account and the benefits of starting your child’s account early, check out my stories or the link in my bio. @mieducationtrust #sponsored #SETwithMET #MI529 #collegesavings #METSept2023
