It's A BOY!!!

Finally!!! I am happy to announce there is a BOY in our family! This was a long time waiting for my dad. After three daughters and three granddaughters, Brenden James was born. He came into the world weighing 8lbs 12oz. and 22inches long. He was a Memorial Day baby and at five days old, I grabbed my camera to capture him as a newborn. I mean they grow so fast he probably even changed in his features by the time I finished the session. :)

Also, while I was home I had to get in s few pictures of Emelia now that she is 4 years old. I just can't believe how fast they grow up. Wow, I just love being an Aunt!

Congratulations Rachel and Justin! I'm so proud of you guys. You make Amazing Parents and I love you all sooo much!

Brenden James

His feet are already longer than Natalia's

Look at those long fingers!!!

Awe! He's smiling for me :)

I"m sure he'd rather take a nap in his crib :)

In daddy's Arms!

Emelia's now Four Years Old!

She's such a proud older sister too!

I had to sneak one in of Kaela too. I'm sure I will be posting some

3 Year Old pics of her soon! She's now the middle child like me and is now an older sister too!

The gift of Life amazes me every time. When I get to hold a newborn, I am realizing more and more how much we need to cherish that stage of life. Wouldn't it just be awesome if we could only pause it long enough to never forget those first days.

Well, I am honored to have captured baby Lauren before she was a week old. She was born on June 2, 2010 and just under 6 lbs. What a beautiful baby girl. I could have just held her all day long. She was so sleepy, but I definitely think we

caught some first glimpses of her smile :)

See! Pretty sure that's a glimpse of her smiling :)

Mommy's little Angel!

Parenthood ... gotta love it!

Can't have enough pink in a little girls life!

Happy Birthday Lydia!

Lydia is turning 3 years old this month and she is

so photogenic for her age.

She had on the cutest outfits and I just loved the flower clips in her hair. I am so happy we were able to get a few pictures taken with her dogs.

She told me they are her best friends.

Lydia's adorable smile and facial expressions were so contagious

I could have hung out with her all day!

Daddy's Girl!
