365 days of James

When James came into my life I turned into a crazy person and couldn't stop taking pictures of him for the life of me. I already had hundreds and he had only been alive for a week. I decided to limit myself and to only keep one from each day of his life (except for special occasions). So I took a picture of him every day his first year.

After his birthday I decided to put all the pictures in a book. I was so excited when it came in the mail last week. It is so fun to look back on his first year and see him change before my eyes. I love being able to see his different facial expressions and to be able to pinpoint his different phases--like the tongue always out phase.

This was a great remedy for an overzealous-with-the-camera, first time mom like me.






Everyone asks me if I am going to do this for my future children. I am sure as heck going to try.

And in case you wanted to see everyday from James first year of life, here you go. You're welcome.

    1. I used shutterfly. If you sign up for their emails they are always having discounts on photo books and free shipping. Wait for one of those and then you get a great deal! Plus I think the quality is great for what you end up paying.
