Today is my baby girl’s birthday. This girl is a ball of sweetness, courage, sass and just the best. I can’t imagine our family without her. She constantly tells us to “be brave like Wonder Woman”. She will cup my face with her hands or throw her arm around my shoulder and say “I just want to keep you forever”. She also is super independent, determined and so creative. She loves to come to work with me and to build things. Her favorite store is The Home Depot. Seriously, how cute is that? On July 4, I told my husband I had to go to Home Depot and she gasped so loud and said “Home Depot?!?” and she had to come with me. I like to get photos of my kids around their birthday, at the very least, so I can see how they’ve grown. This year we decided to have a Home Depot Photo Session for her 4 Year Old Pictures.

Aldridge Gardens, Birmingham, AL – Toddler Pictures
My husband had surgery last week and so I took off this week to take care of him as well as the kids. Stephen is the Stay at Home Farter and part of his recovery wouldn’t allow him to lift more than 5 lbs so that meant he couldn’t do his STAF duties without help. It’s actually been really nice to be able to take care of my family in this way. One of the things I did to get the kids out of the house and give Stephen some peace and quiet so he could rest was taking the kids to one of our favorite spots, Aldridge Gardens, in Birmingham, AL and take some pictures of our sweet toddlers.
Aldridge Gardens is such a beautiful place. On our first visit, shortly after we moved to Alabama, there was some nursery, plant sale going on and lots of people were there. We had the pleasure of speaking with the former owner of the property and he told us about it. It used to be his residence but the acreage of gardens was just too much to keep up with so he donated it and still participates in the events and loves to see people come and enjoy it. They have a dock where you can go out and feed fish, turtles, ducks, etc. There are trails that go around a large pond area. They have some statues and beautiful trees. It’s just a really beautiful and peaceful place. There are always weddings going on and I’m sure it’s an amazing setting for such events.
While I was still pregnant with my daughter, (who is now 3!) I took my son to Aldridge Gardens to play and took some pictures of him. He was only 18-months old and he’ll be 5 in a couple of months and just started preschool yesterday! The saying, “the days seem long, but the years are short” is completely holding true for our little family.
