Shiny, Happy, Sparkly, Feel-Good Friday: 8/30/13 (Baby Edition)

August 30, 2013 by Mamma Wild Thing 2 Comments

So I thought I’d do a little something different with this week’s SHSFGF post and put a little theme to it. This decision may or may not have had something to do with the fact that I didn’t have too many photos to include this week. Whatever the reason (or not), I think this is something I’m going to do from time to time, so stay tuned for more themed requests. 🙂

Now, without further adieu, I give you this week’s theme: Babies!!

Some baby pics that have made me happy:

My oldest, “Belle” (now 5)

My middle, “Saurus” (now 3)

My youngest, “Eli” (now 1)

And some baby pics that made you happy:

Stephanie from TX: Ace Avery Harrison. He is 7 months in this pic and 10 months now.

Ann from MI: Look at that cutie pie!

Laura from X: One of my favourite pics of my 5-week-old daughter Evie Marie. It makes me smile as it looks like shes poking her tongue out at her toy hedgehog, either that or shes about to lick its nose!

Laura from Australia: One of my favourite pics of my 5-week-old daughter Evie Marie. It makes me smile as it looks like shes poking her tongue out at her toy hedgehog, either that or shes about to lick its nose!

Terri from X: This is my gorgeous grandson who I fittingly nick named "TAZ" he is the apple of my eye I <3 this little boy so much. In this pic he is about 10 months.

Shaneal from SC: Here’s a pic of my son Elijah when he was 1 month old. And the other picture is me at 3 months.

From Chronically Sick Manic Mother: This week I have been playing with my pinhole camera app. It gives real true black and whites and Its helped me realize what the lighting is in regular color pictures too! This is the kid…a cool barn and Princess P.

Renee from X: My baby boy is getting so big! just turned 6 months old :)

Renee from CA: My baby boy is getting so big! just turned 6 months old 🙂

Julianne from MD: (1) This is what happens when you get your big brother’s hand-me-down clothes and toys–no one can tell from the photo that you’re a girl. (2) Baby girl’s first Strawberry Festival (June 2011).

Maryann from KY: Patton’s Kentucky born and raised 🙂 Here he thought he was funny because he got on the other side of the baby gate. He’s 13 months old.

As always, thanks to everyone who submitted some happiness! Please keep it coming. Until next week…

Fridays on Raising Wild Things are Shiny, Happy, Sparkly, Feel-Good Fridays! Since parenting can sometimes suck the life out of me, I wanted to do these posts as reminders of the good, the great things that happened during the week amid all the crazy, exhausting, sometimes frustrating, sometimes maddening, sometimes head-exploding moments that seem to linger in my memory and can put me in a mommy funk. What makes you happy? Please share!
