Why did God not give us an ugly daughter???!
Haley is 10. Oh, yes - you read right, 10
What the heck happened to the past 10 years - 0h, and I'll throw in the "we're not old enough to have a 10 year old" bit. (truth be told, we're probably not.)
I'd like to say we have the cutest kids on the block - well, we do...but what I'd really like, is to KEEP it as just the cutest kids. We're stepping onto new grounds - thrust into the pretty/beautiful category, without warning. Ok, I'm sure we assumed this day would come, but really - now? this soon? now?!
My friend Kara with Kara Hicks Photography had a 'child high fashion' assignment (ala Targe` and Old Navy ;) and asked to use Haley - besides the fact that she was ubber giddy to play model for a few hours, she was talking a mile a minute when she came home...had a little too much fun. Oh boy! Kara is insanely great at her talent, so of course we assumed the pictures would turn out great. Only it sort of back-fired on us. Crap. She's pretty, like totally pretty. Crap.
Oh the joys of a 10 year old. It only just begins.
Here is our Haley as a pretend model...she gets her braces off tomorrow too - shoot, its probably just going to be worse, huh?
Hun - you can get that gun you've been wanting.

Okay, I am feeling kind of bad about possibly being the one that jolted these feelings. And kind of scared to look Chris in the eye, knowing I have brought out the inner model and made his only daughter look a little too grown up for her age????? Is the gun for me??? :) Yikes, I am scared.
By the way, you don't have to show her those ones on my blog. I have quite a few others that might be a little more age appropriate for her. :) Still gorgeous, but a little more youthful, and 10-yr-old-ish :)
I love them! So cute and yes, daddy...get the gun and the mean faces ready!
She is very photogenic.
Just ran across your blog. Thought I'd say hello!
