Congrats to the Winners!
"OK, so I would like to nominate me as one of your people for a free session w/ you.
I really can not afford a sitting fee, as my hubby is an adoption worker, and really does not make enough for us to be a one income family. The $100/wk I make goes toward our grocery bill. We have really cut back this year, got rid of cable, cut down our cell phone pack, not going out to eat, etc.
I am currently pregnant and we are trying to save up some $ for the birth. Chris has insurance, but we usually still have to pay about $2000 out of pocket.
I am due on Aug. 24, our 7 year anniversary...." -Heather
I am writing to nominate my friend Kelly for your photo give away. Kelly and I have been friends since middle school. We went our separate ways and bumped into each other a couple years ago at the public pool. It was like we never were apart. Anyway, we discovered we still have a lot in common and struggling to get pregnant was one of them. We did IVF (each of us for the 2nd time.........her 1st time didn't work, mine did hence Elizabeth) around the same time. We both became pregnant with twins, she was almost exactly 4 weeks behind me. Her pregnancy was hard from the beginning. She was so sick in the beginning, she had to be hospitalized for dehydration. Right when it was looking up she found out her cervix was starting to dilate and thin out way too early. Again long story short, she ended up on complete bed rest, having to take off of her job, she pretty much couldn't get off of her couch. She had to have steroid shots for her babies' lungs during another hospital stay when she was having contractions. She made it to 33 weeks and had her babies. Aiden and Olivia were born about 6 weeks early and spent 12 days in the NICU. She struggled for 5 years to have a baby and she was finally blessed with two. She's been through a lot, and what a better way to celebrate the end of her long struggle than with beautiful pics of her little ones. -Jessica
I was just at my cousin's baby's baptism yesterday and I thought they would be perfect to enter in the giveaway. She has a 10-11 month old and just had another baby 3 months early. He was born 3 lbs but maybe up to 6 by now. He is constantly on a heart/breathing monitor b/c sometimes his heart stops. She has to massage his heart til the alarm goes of or like last week take him into icu and get a blood transfusion. All that to say - I think she is overwhelmed having 2 babies and one with special needs , so I think she would make a good candidate. Her name is Crystal Borgwardt and her boys are Clayton (older) & Colton. -Jenny
Thanks to everyone for participating! I am so excited to meet you and share my gift with you!
