Here’a a victory wave with the candle.

…as much as he loved the cupcake, I think he preferred the grass.  {L} does this adorable scoot thing instead of crawling.  He scooted all over the blanket to pull out the grass.

We gave up on the blanket for a bit.  :)

Probably my favorite:

We caught a few shots of the fam before poor {L} got really tired of the whole thing.

Aren’t they adorable?

I rode with the {P’s} to the park and on the way back I think I scared poor {L} getting in the car.  He looked at me like, “haven’t we seen enough of her yet?!”

Thanks {P} family.  It was great to see you and realize we have so many friends in common.  Such a small world!

I love my job.  I really do, but when I get home in the evening the last thing I want to do at times is take another picture.  I make myself though.  I make myself pick up the camera one more time to capture all the things I don’t want to forget.

I make myself because they are the cutest kids in the world.  (I am aware that I might be a wee bit biased.)

And for a real look into my life:

Maybe one of my favorite photos of my little man ever:

And my little girl…just how I usually see her…mad that she’s not getting her way.  Right after I told her it was time to go home.  :(

Biased or not, they sure are cute.  Don’t you think?

And lest you think I am joking about this personality:

Goodnight all.  Hope you have a great sleep.

Do you remember a sweet little infant from a few months back?  Well, he grew up and look at him now.  I’m not sure he could be any cuter.

If this next one doesn’t make you smile…you may need a vacation.

This is one of my favorite father-son photographs ever.  Look at those smiles.  We just hope he doesn’t grow up to be a Celtics fan.

All he needs now is a remote:

I love watching her and Eden grow up together and I can’t wait to see what the future holds for both of them.  I just wish the future would come a little more slowly.  It will probably feel like tomorrow and they will be in each other’s weddings.

I can almost hear her laughing in this next one.

Look at this little lady!

Happy Birthday little {A}!  Love you lots.

Life seems to have moved quickly and I hardly get to see Val these days so I was thrilled to get the chance to spend time with her and her {adorable} daughter {T}.  As usual, Valerie kept me cracking up.

Could {T} be any more precious?  Check out those eyes.  And that look of mischief?  She gets that from her mom.

We played a little peek-a-boo.

More peek-a-boo.

This next one all out cracks me up.  After little {T} got a bit tired of our session and the smiles started to fade, Valerie said, “Don’t think I’m a bad mom but I’m going to throw a shoe at her.”

Did you catch that?  A second before she gets hit…

No worries though.  {T} can hold her own.

It worked too.  Check out these giggles we got after the shoe battle.

Thanks so much Valerie for bringing {T} by.  She makes me laugh almost as much as you do.

They have just launched the new website and are using some Heritage images for examples.  Have fun browsing!

But after some drinks, he warmed up a bit.

I couldn’t resist.  :)

You may recall Little Miss {M} here is Dave’s granddaughter.  She and this little guy shared a birthday party last weekend.  There have been four babies born in 2009 amongst their friends.  Here they are with one big brother {L}.  Have you ever put five kids (four being age one and under) in one photograph?  You can’t imagine the sweat that was involved here.

Below is a compilation of four different photographs of the cuties.  Dave shot most of these while I pulled out my tricks.  {Basically making a fool of myself, doing anything I can to make a one year old smile.}

All five breathed a sigh of relief when the mommies jumped in.  Aren’t they a beautiful bunch?  And this is after the photo workout.

You might remember this little guy from here…look how he’s grown!

Little {I} is no stranger to the blog either.  See her here.

Loved this shot of {L} with his mommy.

And now for the families:

Not a bad looking group, huh?

And her brother is not so bad looking himself.  :)  Little {L} was not a huge fan of a photo session but with a few tricks we ended up with some great shots.

Neither was a big fan of my stools.  :(

But, it wasn’t anything a couple packs of Gushers couldn’t solve.

And…it’s a good thing Gushers did the trick since they coordinate perfectly with their green and blue.
