About Me

My photo
I’m a stay at home mother of two beautiful children, Zoey and Zane. I spend most of my days wiping butts and cleaning up…but what can I say I love every minute of it. I love the time I get to spend each day with my children thanks to God and my wonderful husband. This blog is about our daily happenings at the Blakley Ranch. Hope you enjoy!

Six Months...

As of March 15, 2009, Zane is six months old. As you can see I’m a little late in posting this…he will be seven months next week. My only excuse is I’ve been one busy Mama. At his six month checkup Zane weighted 18 pounds and measured 29 inches.


He is now eating baby food. We started out with squash and he has moved on to bananas. Baby boy gagged with his first taste of banana. I was shocked…I just knew he was going to love fruit. However, after several more attempts he will now eat bananas without making a sour face.


Zane is sitting up by himself and loves taking a bath with Zoey. Zoey accidentally splashed him with water and he cracked up laughing. Now, during bath time they can’t wait to splash each other. Trust me he does his fair share of splashing back. I love hearing them laugh together!

Under the Sea...

When we asked Zoey what kind of party she wanted for her third birthday she was adamant about having a Little Mermaid theme. So with the help of my family we pulled off a great under the sea party. It’s amazing how much fun kids can have with a bounce house, cupcakes, and loot bags.




My cousin, Candice, and her husband, Cody, dressed up as Ariel and Prince Eric. By the way…my Aunt made the mermaid costume! Is she talented or what?

Zoey was surprised by their appearance and the kids loved having their picture made with Ariel.




Zoey made like a bandit in the present department. She received great gifts including a princess tiara, a handmade quilt, and cowgirl chaps.



Zoey is still talking about her Ariel birthday party…she had a great time!

Love Is In the Air...

Alisha has been a great friend to my sister, Shae. So when she asked me to take her engagement pictures I was honored. Alisha and Michael are such a cute couple and made my job easy. We had a great time and you could absolutely feel the love in the air. Thanks guys for letting me be a part of this special time in your life. Here are a couple of my favorite shots…
