As I finished my 365 love letters project for my daughter, I worried I'd never be able to do the same sort of baby photo documentation for another child, but I'm determined. I didn't want to do the exact same thing, starting at the beginning of a year, but I did want to do a years worth of photos. What better than to start on the day he was born?

Text and editing in Photoshop was a pain, so this time around I wanted to make it so I'd need as little editing as possible. Sure, I may want to spruce a photo up from time to time, but I'm trying to get them right straight out of the camera, with numbers in the background, so I don't need to run them all through my editing system.

So along with my 30 things my kids should know about me project I've been working on another baby this month. I find random things nearby when I'm setting up the photo to make the numbers. It's been a fun little maternity leave project so far, and hopefully by the time I get back to work it'll be routine. Some are more creative than others and some are just plain boring. I hope he likes them someday though. Click through to see the first month.
