Little {E} Turns ONE!

A fun session with a happy baby boy...still a baby even though he hit the big O-N-E!  He was walking all over...pretty sure on his feet and wanting to be wherever his big brother was...we got some great smiles and he was quite impressed with himself standing on his chair...which by the way..his chair is AWESOME.  I'm loving loving my new backdrops and they are made even cuter by my super cute clients.

Happy Birthday {E} and Belated Happy Birthday to your big brother {J}.  Thanks for coming and playing :)!

My Little Valentine's

Well the sweetest day of the year came and went and of course I couldn't resist trying my hardest to get my little valentine's into a picture together.  It wasn't a walk in the park that's for sure....putting on all my hats as Mommy, fashion designer, hair & make up, and photographer while trying to keep their attention on me was pretty nuts.  Miss Sydney only wanted to scoot around and make trouble, while Morgan tried to hold her in place, I needed a nap when it was all said and done but we had a ton of fun!

I can't believe they are getting so big so quickly.  Morgan tells me stories, gives me reports on Sydney and tries to be a little Mommy.  Sydney says mamamamama over and over and puts everything in her mouth, handfuls at a time, pulls herself up on everything and can get across the room in the blink of an eye.  They both really are sweethearts and melt my heart.  My little Valentine's.

Heartbreakers!

I wrapped up my Valentine Mini's shoot with a special visit from a friend of mine from Madison!  Getting together should be easy when you only live 1.5 hours apart, but as we grow older...and have more babies :) life gets a tad bit more complicated, to say the least, so you can imagine how exciting it was to have them on my roster for the day and the last shoot so they could hang out for a while.

Apparently the drive down agreed with Augie because he couldn't stop smiling...or it could have been his mom who knew just what to do to crack him up!  He was such a smiley little guy, I love love the 6 month stage...and 9 months because Sydney does it too.  Augie's big brother Fritz was excited to look like Daddy and put on a tie just like him so he was excited for his pictures too :)  and the sun was shining...ahhhhh overall the morning couldn't have been any sweeter.

Check them out for yourself...these two little heartbreakers, they won over my girls' hearts that's for sure.  Morgan can't wait to see her buddy Fritz again soon and Sydney can't wait till she and Augie can work on new words together.

Thanks Aut for coming, it was awesome seeing you and of course wanting me 1.5 away to take pictures of your boys!  LOVE IT!!
P.S. I think we should let the kids have a popcorn fight next time they get together just like back in the day...at your house though ;).

I love love Fritz's thumbs up with his toes!

Mini-Valentine Shoot Continues....Miss P

Someone woke up ready for her modeling shoot today...Miss P came through my door with a smile and giggle and continued for the entire shoot!  Such a sweet little girl, lots of personality...check her out!

First Mini-Valentine....Miss Peyton

As adorable as always Miss Peyton took to the session and rocked it.  She danced with me, sang, did I say danced...oh yeah!  Tutu's bring out the dancer in everyone :)  I'm going to post a picture to this blog because I think it is hilarious...probably not one that will go in a frame at her house, but every picture captures who kids are, and what they do at the age etc.  At 2...you guessed it...you pick your nose.

Side note: I must tell my own girl 10 times a day...get your finger out of your nose!!  I can't help but giggle, which makes her giggle and pick more and tell me about boogers, truly the conversations I have on a day to day basis with Morgan crack me up.  She now tells me they are diiiissssgusting.  

More mini's to come this week!

I pick you to be my Valentine!  HA!
