Probably Andrew

Meet.... Andrew. Probably. Most likely. It's about a 90% chance it will be Andrew. That's what his mom told me, anyway! ;-) Regardless of his name, this cherub was born into a loving family and his arrival was much anticipated by everyone including his two older brothers. I got to meet him in the hospital when he was just a day old, and I couldn't be more excited! Here are some photos of the peaceful, adorable, probably Andrew.

Welcome to the world, sweet little (okay, not so little at 9lbs. 7oz.) nephew! You are beautiful and loved. :-) 

Meet Andrew.... Andrew is the most adorable, calm, happy, and laid-back 6 month old baby I think I've ever met! As I sat and watched Andrew army-crawl across the floor, all I had to do was call his name and he gave me sweet little coos and giggles and happy baby smiles. :-) He's incredibly smart and cuddly, and I love this little guy to pieces! Here's some photos from our quick session....

How I keep sane...

To all you moms out there, I'm sure you understand when I say that some days are just tough. No matter what you do, nothing goes your way. It seems as though your patience, logic, and even your sanity are pushed to their breaking points. Naptime can't come soon enough, and it doesn't. The minutes seem like hours, and sometimes keeping our kids entertained is more difficult and more time-consuming than we can afford. Little Miss Olivia has oooodles of energy and I'm always trying to find new things to do and new ways of keeping her, how shall I say this...content. :-) So here I'll show you just a few note-worthy things we've done in the past week or so to keep busy :-) Please feel free to use some of our ideas as inspiration on your own kids when needed! LOL.

We watched Matthew's soccer game and chatted over coffee...

We rode the horse-y....

We stared in wild, wild wonder....

We ate the finest food....

We got some sun....

We went on some rides...

But as busy as we were, we never forgot to stop and smell the flowers...

Hope you all stay busy, and have a great rest of the week! :-)

We had some unseasonally great weather here recently and we got out to enjoy it as much as possible... here's a few photos of the kids from the past week or so...

This is my son who acts so tough all the time... except when he's around his friend, Madison, pictured here with him. I love catching moments like these... he held her hand so she wouldn't fall. :-) He didn't know I was watching him.

Daddy taught her how to play "fetch" with the dog...

Walking her toy dog...

See, women are born with the ability to multi-task.... :-)

BFF's  :-)

I had the pleasure of photographing a friend of mine over the weekend... We met a couple of years ago, as her son and my son go to school together and are very good friends. She is a beautiful and sweet woman, and I think these images captured just that!

This one is my favorite...

So I finally decided to start a blog! This is where I'm going to showcase my most recent and favorite work and where you'll get a better idea of who I am personally and professionally. I'm so excited for this upcoming season as I already have a couple of weddings booked... and I'm also looking forward to my own wedding this summer. I'll be sure to share some of those details with you as well! The photos below are of a couple of GORGEOUS women! We did a couple boudoir sessions a two weeks ago and it was a lot of fun! Both of these girls were sooooo easy to work with and as you'll see, photographed BEAUTIFULLY! Here are a few of my faves...
