Leah Nine Months!

Little Leah is a smiley little gal and I adore her little tooth poking out. She is a doll! Thank you for bringing her in!

Mason and Brayden

Mason and Brayden reminded me so much of my boys a couple years ago. Such a blondie Mason is! We went outside for a few minutes but it was wet so we headed in. Brayden was not quite himself so we saw a lot of seriousness from him. I was surprised to see that the boys each have thier footprints tattooed on daddy's arms. I can tell there is a lot of love in this family.
Thank you for bringing them in!

My two new "assistants"

These two wonderful kids threw me for a loop. When I get ready for a photo shoot involving a three year old boy, I prepare do do a lot of chasing and dancing around to get their attention. These two were so aware of my presence and so involved in what I was doing. They said they wanted to grow up to take photos like I do. : ) I actually wanted them to ignore me a little more so I could catch them just being kids. They were a joy to be around. We listened to music, sang and had fun. Thank you to their mom and dad for bringing them!

July 4th with the Fam

Little Bethany is always a doll. She has handmade clothing from her talented mom so she is always showing off her newest threads. Happy is a word to describer her. She is always singing and dancing when I see her. A true beauty.
Cecilia is also so adorable. I love her little pout when she is walking about. She missed a nap on this day and was not about to have a close-up. She played with her cousin Bethany and enjoyed some ice cream. She too is a beautiful little girl.

cousins enjoying some together time.

Cecelia's big bright eyes.

My new nephew!!

We are so excited to welcome baby Matthew to our extended family! Adoption has brought our family two nephews and now we have a third! What a blessing he is to this family! He is already loved as a baby brother, son, cousin, grandson, and great grandson. We are so thankful for birth mothers who give adoptive families this amazing gift of life and love thier little baby enough to give them a bright future in a loving family. Matthew, welcome! You are going to have so many boys to play with as you grow! All your cousins will show you the ropes on how to get spoiled by the grandparents. : )

Senior Stephanie

It was one very hot day for senior portraits but Stephanie was a trooper. She never complained and she was easy to work with. Instead of heading to GR for her shoot we headed north and had fun chatting as we stopped at random locations. I hope you like these, Stephanie. And best wishes for a wonderful last year of high school.
