a new baby girl will be making her appearance. I’m quite certain she will be gorgeous – just look at her Mama!

summer has arrived…

…and it’s my absolute favorite season of the year. I love waking up and forgetting what day it is because most days the kids and I have nothing we “have” to do. We are certainly enjoying some well deserved down time. We were at the beach last week and all the cousins got together for a quick photo shoot – or an attempt at one at least. The “babies” are 17 and 18 months old and to say they are quick is a huge understatement! We had to be equally as fast with treats and bribes but in the end it was all worth it since they earned ring pops – every one of them! Candy makes all kids happy, right?

I told my mother in law I wanted to get a shot of the babies naked in the sand. Of course they sat for about 1.4 seconds as you can see here -

I like this in a vintage wash, too. So sweet!

And summer isn’t summer without fresh cherries. I put some in one of my grandmother’s old mixing bowls, again in a vintage wash just because.

I noticed these ants a few weeks ago with an enormous treasure – a corner of a dorito. As they carried it away down my driveway, I ran inside to get my camera and nearly missed them. Apparently, they are quick, like toddlers!

I met with this gorgeous couple recently for an engagement session. Can’t you just feel the love between them? What a blessing to witness.

I did some vintage processing on some of these which turned out quite nicely. It helped that it was such a pretty evening for taking pictures. I love this time of year!

My favorite. Wow!

all boy

I’ve been watching this little guy grow. He is all boy, too! He got his hands in the mulch, as you can see here, and had the best time. Just like a boy! I did a pastel processing on this and I like it.

Later we noticed the dirt under his nails!

One of my favorite shots. Ever.

I could just eat him up! I love his sweet face!

coming soon

A new baby brother is coming soon and this little sister is so excited!

Miss Elle was so sweet. I even got a hug when our session ended, mostly because she was ready to go and see some cows!

Mom looks amazing, don’t you think?

Patty cake with Mom!

Recently I found one tiny weed in my back yard. On that one tiny weed, I found two tiny ants, working hard at something that was apparently really important.

Upon further inspection of my yard, I found more signs of spring. I’m so glad spring has finally arrived! It’s been too long!

mr. personality

I can’t get over how much these babies are growing! I guess it’s a good sign….but still. Check him out! He’s already one! Here’s his sweet newborn session from last year -> Abe and look at him now, walking – man, nothing can stop him!

A sweet moment with Mommy

A fun shot

snow day

Natasha — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 04:50:13 +0000

In our little corner of the world, down here in southeast Alabama, we experienced our version of a “snow storm” last Friday. Four inches of snow blanketed our town and as you can see, the kids had a blast building snow men and snow women, constructing snow forts to combat the neighbor kids in a snowball fight, and just enjoying this frozen stuff that we only see once every 20 years.

i love this guy…

Natasha — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 23:33:54 +0000

…my husband. His unconditional love, compassion for me, forgiveness of my mistakes and failures, ability to put me first, his incredible work ethic and total commitment to me and our family….all of these qualities make me feel like the most blessed woman ever. He has such an attitude of Christ and sets the example for our children, and myself. He has told me countless times that he has a love for me that Christ has put in him and while I am so undeserving, I realize at this moment (more than ever) how very lucky I am to have such an amazing husband. I don’t use the blog for “writing” but today I chose to because he is so very special to me.

I love you, Scott! Happy Valentine’s Day!

a sweet face

This entry is way over due! I know mom and entire family have been waiting for their sneak peek. I have a few other things I want to share soon as well!

It’s hard to believe this little sweetie is nearly one! Here’s her newborn session She’s just so full of personality - such a girl – as you can see here.

Only Addison could look so cute, squatting like this…

It had been warm last month when we shot these outside. What happened to that spring like weather?

The sweetest Valentine I’ve seen in a long time, don’t you think?

Every little girl needs jewelry!
