Quoting ♥~Xan~♥:" The adorable A&A: ..And this is just the tip of the iceberg. Needless to say, I am having issues picking which photo to post for the sneak peek  "

awwwwww what sweethearts!

Quoting Lil Glo Worm:" How can these not make you smile??? "

I'm smiling  
She's a cutie!

Quoting Cheryle [TOG]:" I'm sorry about your M/C  "

Thank you. It makes me the most sad, because I'm older (mid 30's) and I am too scared to A. go through this again, and B. have complications due to age.

So I'm thankful I have my two girls already... even if one is moving out in a few months.  

So, I'm thinking I want to "try" to do pics of liv with the xmas lights in the back. How does everyone get them so blurred out? Ha ha... I have an idea, but not sure if it's right. I suck at technical stuff!

So the trick is the further your background is from her + wider aperture. A longer focal length helps too.

I was 41 when I had Niklas and had a miscarriage right before getting pregnant with him. I actually had a miscarriage between each of my children so other than my first pregnancy, I have not experienced another free from fear of loosing the baby. I understand the fear of going through another one and the fear of complications because of age.

I'm so sorry.   Yes, it's terrifying, and we are still up in the air on what to do. Whether to wait a few years or to stop permanently. :/

Awesome, thanks! Gonna give it a try next weekend. ha ha. Kinda late, but oh well. Not expecting much. She wont sit still for longer than 10 seconds anyways! I have no idea how to get her to just"sit"

You should definitely give it some time for some healing. You're not THAT old and you lost all that weight which is great. Women have babies into their 40s now. But don't let it stress you out, just let your emotions ride this and take care of yourself right now <3

Haha good luck.. I did some of Z and it was frustrating. She doesn't mind 'cheese' as she calls it but she doesn't want to sit.

Lmao. She is JUST starting to understand the camera and what it's for. She says cheese as well, but wont look at the camera long. She has better things to do.

And thank you. Sorry to bring the mood down in here. I'm blocking a lot of this out, I think.... not dealing with it like I should, so it just comes up at random times here and there and then I try not to think about it anymore. Yeah, I dont think I'm ready to do anything irrational and quick just yet.

I don't think you're bringing the mood down. Talking about it helps you heal. ❤
