in honor of my mom on mother’s day i wanted to try something i’ve seen around the internet. i took a couple of old photos of my mom and me and tried to duplicate them with Sophia and me. what’s fun is that i’m the oldest so my mom was in the same place of life that i am right now when she was taking care of me!
i don’t think i’m as pretty as my mom was…and my baby photos are NOT as cute as miss Sophia’s! ha. but it was fun to try and i hope she likes the gift!
from 1985. our dog Fred, me with my paci and my adorable mother.
2014: Sammie(aka puppycakes) would not sit up higher, Sophia would not take her paci {and wouldn’t look at daddy with the camera} and me.
outtake: puppycakes yawns and Sophia is about to fall asleep and i have a hair in my mouth. ha!
from 1985: my adorable hotmomma {tee hee hee}and i’m probably a little older than Sophia. we are in front of our old cherry tree at the house i grew up in. Fred at least is looking up! i love mom’s cute short shorts and i tried to copy her with my own version…but i’m prety sure it was at least july in colorado…so WAY warmer than it was here when i took these pictures. ha!
2014 in front of the dogwood tree in our backyard…with not as cool of a background. womp womp. so then we tried out front of our house:
NEEDS desparatly to be weeded!! doh! {why did we not think of that before we took the picture?!} at least puppycakes and Sophia are looking at the camera! but the tree’s so big and the neighbors’ house is not the best backdrop either. which one looks better?
outtake lol. no one is looking. oh well!
anyway, this was a fun thing to do! it was fun to think about my own mom holding me the way i was holding Sophia. it was nostalgic and sweet. i framed an old version and a new version together for her gift. i hope she likes it!
Happy Mother’s Day Momma!
