eleven magnificient mamas












































ten party people



nine funny faces




eight colorful cuddlers




seven doting daddies




























six acts of affection






















FIVE. FUSHIA BOUQUETS.


4 hooves a kickin




3 sweet siblings



2 big ol bellies




......and a rock star stuck in a baby's bod-eey.






phewf! and if you made it through my twelve days of Christmas, photography style, well then here you are. and here IT is.
THE giveaway.
but how do you enter you say? well simply leave a comment on THIS post for one of the twelve days of Christmas in YOUR life and you are in. SO in.
still not sure? well today I am pretty sure I can claim "twelve detestable diapers" (and probably even more, but I will spare you the details..) but you get the idea. and hopefully I didn't steal yours.
REmember- any day, anything in your life.
and finally what is at stake? well in keeping with my government conspiracy ways, here is a clue....






and that my dear friends, is what your true love may give to you.

and you will have twelve days from Friday, December 11, to enter.
The winner will be announced the day before Christmas Eve.
and then I may even tell you what you won.
I promise it is worth the wait.



Merry Christmas.
