    Cambrie 6 months sneak peek

    Monday, January 25th, 2010

    Sweet Cambrie came in to see us again for her 6 month pictures. She was in a very serious mood but still as beautiful as ever. She has grown up so so much it is amazing. Oh and I love her Matilda Jane Clothing also :-)

    See her in her earlier days here.
