My little sister, Lacey, is very pregnant with her second. I honestly believe that pregnant women are beautiful and my little sis is…well, she is amazingly beautiful. For all the hard times I have given her (she is only two years younger than I, and I was the consummate aggravating older brother!), she turned out all right. I am so proud of the woman she has become. Her husband, my brother-from-another-mother, Danny is a great guy and together they have an enviable relationship. They live out in the country and have a precious little daughter who is a few months older than my youngest, Jillian. She is two and her name is Lily Mae.

Sneaky, sneaky! Anyway, we only had a few minutes to do these photos on one day (the 4th of July) and about 10 minutes a couple days later…The reason for the sneakiness is we are surprising my brother-in-law with the photos. We had to be very quick, we literally just shot the pics and ran back inside in a span of about 10 minutes. They were shot at my folk’s 400 acre farm.

Oh! And my sister is due in just a week or two.
