Erica wanted to surprise T’s Daddy with some pictures of the two them and we were able to get some GREAT ones of them during our shoot.  I held off on posting them so I wouldn’t ruin the surprise but these are too good not to share now that the beans have been spilled!

Thanks again Erica, it was great to see you two!

Jamie and I have been blessed to live in a wonderful neighborhood since moving into our home in April of 2008.  We live off a quiet street where our kids will be able to play outside without worrying this Mama to death.  However; the nicest thing about our location is the neighbors, we have really friendly sweet people living all around us.  Christina and Scott moved in directly next door some time after us and we were delighted to get to know them.  We were even more delighted when we found out that they were expecting a little boy only months after Jay was due.  I have enjoyed sharing pregnancy woe’s with Christina, introducing our little ones to each other and now being able to walk in the mornings or commiserate about the lack of sleep with her.

I snuck over to their house one afternoon to grab a few shots of their sweet little one, C after he was born.  This was no easy feat since we were coordinating two non-existent schedules (his and Jay’s).  Little C was and continues to be so sweet.  I am so excited to be able to watch our little ones grow up together; how wonderful it will be for Jay to have a buddy that lives so close and for me to have a Mama friend literally a doorway away.

Please excuse the excessive amount of photos but I just couldn’t choose what to post and what not to.  I mean can you blame me with that adorable squishy face?

There are a lot of 2′s in this household- two adorable twins, a very fun 2 year old brother and 2 loving parents.  Edward and Ginny make handling this bunch look easy.  Although I am not sure how they manage with 3 under the age of two, I think it has a little to do with how much love there is in their home.  I had so much fun catching up with you guys, it is always a pleasure to share the day with you and your family.

this is how little M always is, he is such a good natured little boy

the whole family- quite a challenge to get them all in one shot and mostly looking

the only girl of the group- little A

little M again- simply precious

little M and little A- seriously, twins are twice as cute!

A few weeks ago I got the pleasure of photographing this wonderful group of 25!  I have known one of the daughters since I was a Freshman in high school; she was my teacher and then SGA sponsor believe it or not, so we go way back.  It is always great seeing her and the rest of her family is just as fun.  It was a challenge to say the least, with the afternoon sun and because there are so many of them but they were great!  I loved, loved, loved working with them.

one of the whole group

how many cousins can we fit into one hammock?

one group of siblings... I was in high school when the youngest of this group was born, not to date myself or anything

four absolute cuties

my former teacher and her beautiful family- she really was one of my favorite teachers- promise

I have been trying desperately to catch-up after being bogged down with a terrible head cold and enjoying the craziness that is the holidays; hopefully I will get there soon.  Until then check out some of the pictures that I took of this adorable family before Thanksgiving; you may remember this little guy from a view months back.  I cannot believe how much he has grown since I saw him last!  It was great to see you guys again :-)

Mom and little B

Dad and little B

does he steal the show or what?

seriously, I could take him home with me

the whole family- so perfect

Could this little one get any cuter??  I had the pleasure of photographing little B last weekend with his Mom and Dad.  We went to a park near their home in the morning, I LOVE warm morning light, and we were able to get the following.  B is such a happy little guy that he smiled at his parents most of the time while we were there and I was able to catch a few of those grins.  It was great to see you guys and to meet B, what a wonderful start to a Saturday…

this is still my favorite from the day (I posted it a few days ago as well)

I have a feeling that this little one might be a soccer player

I caught this series of during a wardrobe change- I love them! He couldn't get cuter tasting his toes...

giggling at Mommy

could you say no to this face? I think not...

I had the pleasure of photographing this little guy Saturday morning.  He was so cute and all smiles for the camera.  I will post a few more soon but this one was too good not to share right now…

how can you not smile back?

Sunday afternoon, Jamie and I went to my dear friends house for lunch, to hang out and as a bonus we got to play with her adorable son, L.  He is almost 8 months old and irresistible!!  I could watch this kid ALL day, no joke.  Right now he is making all kinds of faces, which are so cute, and he is giving kisses.  The kisses are a little wet but could you resist this little one?

smiling at mommy

funny, funny faces

being sweet with me

beautiful boy

pucker up

I told you he was cute didn’t I?
