Selfies Are Silly, But Who Cares!?!?!?

Mommies, listen up.  Even if you don’t look super skinny, even if you don’t have any makeup on, and even if you don’t have anyone to take your picture…..TAKE A SELFIE WITH YOUR LITTLE ONE!!  I know that it is super cheesy, especially at my age, to take a selfie.  However, do it anyway!!  Your babies are only little for a brief period of time, and you will both cherish these pictures forever!!!  Below are not necessarily the most glamorous pictures of me (or even halfway decent), but I still have these precious moments captured with my baby:

We took pictures in the evening when the lighting was bad…..

And after a workout when Mommy was sweaty….

While looking silly in our matching pajamas….

And during lots of giggles (this picture is blurry, but I STILL LOVE IT)…..

And remember – Daddies need to take selfies too (how precious is this picture)!!!!

We took pictures in between nap times (when Mommy didn’t have any makeup on)….

And right after a feeding….

None of these pictures are great of me, but I did it anyway, and I will still always have them.  No matter the time or circumstance, PLEASE remember to take lots of pictures WITH your children!!!!  Do not wait for the right setting, the right lighting, when you look perfect, etc.  Capture the moment by picking up your camera right now!  Years from now, you (AND YOUR CHILD 🙂 ) will be so glad that you did!!!
