First Day of School

It was an exciting morning in our house this morning. Why? because it is the first day of school for all three of my boys. Not only is it the first day of school it is the first day for THE school. It just opened. It's also a first with uniforms for us.

Here's my baby, Jorden. He started Pre-K today. He was so excited to go to school until he found out I couldn't go with him. Then he got a little sad. I hope he already has a little friend.

This is what second grade looks like! Apparently you have to pretend to be a super hero to pose for your photographer mom!

And lasty, this is what fifth grade looks like. Again, striking a pose.

All three of my little boys. They are growing up SO fast. Luckily for me,

I take lots and lots of pictures.

The Cutest 7 Year Old on the Planet

and he's all mine!!!

Seven years ago today you entered my life.

I hate that you are getting bigger and growing up, but I couldn't be happier with the person you are becoming. You fill my days with laughter, my life with smiles, and my heart with joy.

Just a few pictures from the past several years that I love.

You can make me smile at any given moment

Whenever I am sad, you know how to make me laugh.

I look into those eyes and I feel better.

How I wish you could stay 3 forever.

Happy Birthday Jakey!

Love Mommy

It was a BIG Day in our household!

Meet the newest member of our family: Barksley!

She is a golden retriever mix. Isn't she beautiful?

She's the perfect addition to our family!

Oh Reilly!!

This little guy was simply adorable. His 'Auntie' called me all the way from Hawaii to take some newborn pictures of this little cutie. When I first arrived, I noticed his beautiful red hair, but what I loved most about the photo shoot were his noises! Yes, noises. He made all those cute little baby noises of cooing, slurping, and burping. He did not want to go to sleep during the session but near the end, I think I zonked him out!

His mom had one special request, and I hope I got it!

Here he is just chillin on the bed checking out everything.

One of my personal favorites: There is so much love going on in this picture. Reilly you are one lucky little boy! Your mama is going to show you the world!

The gallery will be up in a few days, but in the mean time, I hope these make you smile.

A is for Adorable!

A is also the first letter of this gorgeous little princess, Addison. Here she is at 6 days old, and let me tell you she IS adorable: A complete little angel. She was making the cutest little noises sucking her hands during this shot.

Her daddy talked the talk prior to her birth, but let me tell you a little secret: He's smitten with the new little lady in the house. She's got him wrapped around her finger already.

See! Although this isn't the greatest picture, I love it. Her mama was busy doing something while daddy was noodling her. It was the cutest sight. I love seeing a new daddy doing the baby thing.

Congratulations Nick and Shannon. She is beyond gorgeous!

Celebration

Is she not gorgeous? Not only is she beautiful on the outside, but she is beautiful on the inside. She has one amazing heart. She came visiting from California so the humidity was something she wasn't used too, but she was a trooper and had some amazing shots.

Yes, she's sporting heels.

There is a reason behind this gorgeous smile. She just celebrated her 20th birthday.

Little Men

I have been wanting to share this session for a while not. But I couldn't because they were Mother's Day presents. Are they not simply adorable? Here are a few from the session:

My absolute favorite.

Coming up next a gorgeous young lady with eyes to die for.
