Lit'l Red

9 months. I love this age. They start getting their personalities, but are still cuddly and adore their mommas. And a red-headed baby girl with these beautiful blues and a yellow rosette in her hair? Love it!

 We've been good friends with this family for years, and when they came to visit after having moved over a year ago, I had to get some pictures.

Watch out! He's a bit cheeky. Oh, do I miss this family!

 Her cousin, who is almost the same age, came along for a couple pictures of them together. 

We noticed that baby Kirsten matched my baby, Jack's nursery. That's his quilt he let her borrow. 

 I did mostly pictures of the baby because it was her first photo shoot. She was a perfect little model, as long as I kept up with her.

Baby Elliot

 My mom says when a baby smiles in their sleep, it's because an angel told them a joke. I like to think that's true.

 Elliot's mother told me that this blue blanket was made by his grandmother (hope I'm getting that right). Can you imagine how many hours that must have taken? I love the texture.

 
Baby Elliot did a true baby photo shoot initiation by pooping on me.
 After having 4 boys, newborn poop doesn't bother me too much!

Welcome Baby Liam

This little guy was 2 weeks old when I took his pictures. After he finally went to sleep, he was very cooperative. Doesn't he have the best hair?

His mother had this beautiful blanket that I found in her house, I grabbed it as soon as I spotted it because I knew I would love it in his pictures. 

Big brother was pretty busy, but he popped by our little shoot for a minute.

Senior Times Two

This sweet family had 4 beautiful girls and their #2 and #4 were both graduating: one from high school, the other from Kindergarten.

Aren't they just gorgeous?!?!?

The soon-to-be first grader, brought her princess graduation dress and a couple fun hats. I love it when people bring props and a change of clothes. What a cutie pie!

I thought since these were school pictures, it might be fun to throw an apple in there. And I LOVE those orange heels! Did I mention how pretty this girl is?

Seriously! No offense fellow classmates, but I don't ever remember any of us looking this good.

Here's all the sisters: such a sweet family!

 I love this hot pink cowboy hat!

Baby on the Way

This precious family is expecting their 2nd baby boy. 

I love the colors they chose to wear. 

 This one's my favorite.

 

Barnes Bunch

I had a lot of fun with this little trio. 

  The boys enjoyed throwing rocks in the river.

 Love the way her hair shines in the sun & am a bit jealous of her boots. Got to get me some of those.

  This little one was born just a week or two before my 3 year old. He really reminded me of him, too. 3 year old boys - I think they might all think alike. What a cutie!

My favorite picture of this crew. Giggly kisses.
