Happy Friday!

Na na na na na....

This is my son's friend from preschool last year and his little brother.  SO glad I had the opportunity to take their pictures!  I have to tell this story.  My son had a speech delay and did not talk AT ALL--"M" on the other hand was using complete sentences very early.  The only thing my son would say was"na na na na na" when he was trying to communicate.  I will never forget the day when M walked over to Tate, looked him in the eye and said, "Na na na na na". My heart melted.   They had an instant connection and although Tate could not talk back--they were great friends!  

A few favorites...

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from C.K.'s first year!

One!    
9 months
6 months
3 months! 

I have loved getting to know this family through this first year and watching C.K. grow and change!  Thank you for the countless referrals and your support of my little business!!  I just found out I get to take her 18 month pictures too!!  YEAH!  

Smile!

Here are a few pictures as promised!  "K" is 9 weeks old!  Amazing what happens in a matter of weeks!  She was great!  

Told you I got some of her smiling!!  
And she is pretty darn cute even when she isn't...

Another Birthday Boy!

This little guy was minutes away from his big 1st birthday party!  Lots of balloons and thomas the train fun!  Last time I saw him he was 3 months old--which seems like yesterday...Happy Birthday!

The Best Entertainment!

This little baby girl was born a few weeks early and is so sweet and itty bitty!  She was perfect this morning--did not make a sound!  We had her in all kinds of poses and she slept the entire time---which is exactly why I do newborns within that first week!

Thank you Mom, Dad and Nana!  We had fun!  I think Nana said --"This is the best entertainment!"  I agree!   

One!

Happy 1st Birthday!  After a crazy morning...my sitter was sick (hope your better Ashley) and found a friend to save the day (thank you Carrie!) I was able to meet "C".  I found this necklace in the dollar bin at Target and was excited to have a little girl to photograph soon!  I think she likes it too!  
My absolute favorite shots are CLOSE UPS!  I love her smile with those newly cut teeth and her bright blue eyes!  She has a great spirit about her!

Happy Birthday!

It's official--my baby is a big boy... turned 2 today!  Made his favorite color cupcakes--YELLOW!  Actually, everything is yellow.  If you ask him how old he is...he's yellow. :)  I think he just likes to say the word.

4 weeks!

What a big boy!  holding his head up for me--no wonder we wore him out!  
I love pictures with the parents in the pictures...this is such a memory of having a newborn in the house...all eyes on the baby.  Such a doll--can't wait to see him in a few more months!

The "R" Family

Look at this face!  He loves to play ball--this was right after a toss to Dad--very proud of himself!
I love this picture.  I love how it reminds me of summer, being 3 and everything you should remember about being a kid.
Mom warned me about the "fake smile" problem...I think we cured him!  I love this shot-what a great laugh!!
The big brother.   You can tell he is a GREAT big brother.  So cool and relaxed and ready for his modeling session.  Thank you "R" family--off to download the rest!  

The "B" Boys!

As any parent knows--it is next to impossible to get your children in the same picture-AND-looking at the camera-AND-looking cute...so when I got this picture I did a little dance...even for a photographer, this is a magical moment.  They are SO cute!  Thanks Megan & Steve!!  

Waiting for baby!

So cute!  I had so much fun with this couple today--they are a great couple and are so excited for this little baby to arrive in a few weeks!  I can't wait to meet her too!
