  • Newborn Girls

    These sweet babies belong to Mackenzie’s kindergarten teacher and her husband and they are beyond precious. And as bad as it sounds I was super excited when mom showed up by herself. No grandmas or dads to help (not that I don’t like dads or grandmas!)…but in my mind that one momma can not keep up with 2 babies…which means I get a baby. And I pretty much did. I got to feed and hold them lots…and I was in love. They were sooooo good sleeping and snuggling it up for their pictures. Of course I kept trying to figure out ways to tell them apart and decided that it was easiest by looking at their chin. I think I had it down by the end.

    I’m so excited for you guys and can’t wait to watch them grow. Congrats! Hope you enjoy the pictures:)

  • Beautiful Newborn Boy

    He was perfect. And not only was he gorgeous he was a great little poser, too.

  • Newborn Mr. L

    Boy, am I a sight to see. I scratched my eye at a session tonight and it’s hurting pretty bad. I’ve read that I need to keep it closed and since I don’t have an eye patch on hand I made one with a paper towel and a hair band. The family is calling me a mommy pirate and I’m getting lots of laughs. It’s really hard to keep your eye closed without holding something against it. I just hope that after a good night of sleep and it staying closed it will feel better in time for 2 sessions tomorrow. Of course it’s my right eye and it’s kind of hard to see through a viewfinder if you’re wearing a pirate patch:)

    Little cutie. LOVED his big dimple that you can see in that first picture. His room theme is cowboy so we did some pics with his cowboy stuff.

  • Here’s What I’ve Been Doing Today

    Swoon!!! More to come at the regular sneak peek day…just couldn’t help playing with one of the pictures:)

  • Sweet Little M

    This is my friend Gina’s newest addition to her family. Big brother is pretty proud of him and it was so sweet seeing them cuddle. I don’t think Little M trusted me though because throughout the pictures he usually kept one eye slightly open to keep an eye on me.

    Hope you enjoy the peek:)

  • Newborn Boy Mr. R

    This adorable baby boy slept for just a little bit but I think he was mainly afraid he might miss something because he was awake for most of the session. He was the perfect model while posing with his parents…he would look at them and then look straight at the camera.

  • Ten on Whatever Day

    A lot of bloggers have “themes” for the different days of the week and one of those that I’ve seen is “Ten on Tuesday” or “Ten on Thursday”. It’s just 10 things that they want to talk about and it’s a great way for readers to learn more about you. I’ve always wanted to do this. I have so many things I’d like to do and include on here but never find the time. So, I was going to start this last week. Oh, how about Tuesday? That’ll work….Ten on Tuesday. Well, Tuesday came and went and no blog post for that. So, we’ll wait for Thursday. Guess what? Thursday came and went. So, this week I thought I’ll get a head start on it because I have 2 “T” days coming up and surely can get this done on one of these days. Well, guess what? It’s Friday. And the 2 “T” days are gone. So, I’m going to officially call it “Ten on Whatever Day” I can get it on here:) Here goes:

    – We went to Wimberley, Tx and stayed at a home on the river for Labor Day. We had a blast and I’ll be sharing pictures soon:)

    – My son is the biggest sweet talker ever. I have no clue where he got this but he was born that way. The night before the first day of school I told him I would lay down with him in bed for a little bit. He kept talking so I threatened to leave. Finally, he was quiet for a few minutes and then I hear him rustling around. The next thing I know his pajama pants fly over my head to the floor. I asked him what he was doing and he said “I had put my thinking pants on to think about you but now I’m taking them off to go to sleep”.

    – He also is always telling his sisters that they look pretty, their hair looks pretty, etc… He’s five.

    – He needs to teach his father a little of this:)

    – We’re finally getting new carpet for the areas that still have it. It’s on order and I can’t wait! Meanwhile, we sold Mackenzie’s bedroom furniture and are in the process of redoing it. I need to paint before the carpet is installed. Anyone know of any amazing colors or bedding to look at?

    – Drew now thinks we should re-do his room. He wants characters and can’t decide on which ones so he said one wall Spongebob, one wall Spiderman, one wall Phineas and Ferb (or Ferm) as he says and hasn’t decided on the fourth.

    – Drew doesn’t know this but it ain’t gonna happen. EVER.

    – He’s lucky he got a Spongebob backpack!

    – I’d like to include inspiring blogs and here’s one I love: http://crazysexylife.com/
    You’ve probably heard of her but in case you haven’t check her out.

    – Is that ten? Awesome…have a great weekend!

    I feel like I had an anniversary with this couple because they are one of the few families where I’ve done pictures for both of their kids when they were born. How cool is that?! She was pretty small and I equated that to being easy, sleepy, curly. Well, she was strong, nosey (wanted to look around the whole time), and precious. Congrats you guys and thanks for letting me do pictures this time around as well.

  • Baby B

    I went on location to their home to do this session. Their daughter who used to seem so young and small suddenly seemed like such a big girl now that she has a little brother. She adored him and was really good at posing with him. I was super impressed because their home was beautiful and I found out they had just moved in 3 weeks before! It was already decorated and so put together….plus there’s a new baby! Talk about a supermom!

    I love the last picture almost as much as the first!!:):)

  • Baby girl and her doting brother

    Four-year-old Mr. C was beyond good. He was so sweet and gentle with his baby sister. She was awake the entire time so we got a lot of bright-eyed shots.

    Giving kisses…

  • Newborn Sweetness

    These parents were probably so ready to go but their sweet little one was soooo good that I just kept snapping. He slept and slept and slept and didn’t care what position we put him in. I just can’t help myself when I have a willing little model. Isn’t he precious?

    Stay tuned for my Fall Mini Session announcement coming in the next day or so.
