I saw a fantastic idea on Pinterest last year…a great way of tracking your child grow by using letters describing their age. It all started out great, with Ella lying still and looking adoringly up towards the camera. You see, I soon realised that after each month, it was getting increasingly difficult to a. lie on the ground, b. lie still, c. not eat the letters and d. actually get a shot that was not blurry. Not to mention actually remembering to take the shots!
Whilst I was creating Ella’s photo book over the last month, I came across some of these shots and decided to share them with you. I must admit, that I left out a couple of months…we were clearly too busy having fun! None the less, this idea is really adorable, and if you can do it, is a great way to show your cheeky little one changing each month.
Here are our efforts….
Six Months (this one is my favourite! look at that hand under her chin!)
8 Months – wriggly worm
Nine Months…
Ten Months…
A super cute idea…if you can keep them still!!

Gorgeous shots! I hear ya on how hard it gets to get those shots as each month goes on! I had stickers to put on a onesie for the ones I did for Punky and I’ve learnt from that experience and will be trying a few different tactics and poses when this next one comes along in July and I start the process with her. If you want to see the ones I did for Punky’s first 12 months they are here-http://www.kyliepurtell.com/2012/12/wordless-wednesday-12-months.html
Thanks Kylie! I didn’t know you were expecting again! Congratulations. I think that I’ll definitely be going with the t-shirt labels next time!
