My baby is 3 months.

Grant turned 3 months old a few days ago, I can’t believe how fast the time is flying.  These days, it’s all about the toes!

And the hands!

And of course the smiles :)

I love that baby.

Thanks for the visit!

I always love it when family visits.  It’s one extra set of hands to hand the baby off to :)

Thanks for all your help Fields!

A little obsession.

I have this little obsession with light.  It doesn’t matter what I am doing, I am constantly studying the light and how my relationship and angle to it changes it’s appearance.  The other morning when my mother, Evan and Dan were playing I couldn’t help buy try to capture the magical light in there that morning!

A favor gladly returned.

As any photographer can attest to, it is extremely rare to be able to get in front of the camera and have our images captured with our families.  I was so, so lucky to have a local photographer take our picture last week (www.breehesterphotography.com) I love her style and was thrilled with the images and can’t wait to plaster them on my walls!

I was happy to return the favor to her and her family yesterday, and I think we both may have to make a habit out of this!  Bree- I hope you love you images as much as I love mine!

It’s a BOY!

Congratulations to the Porter Family! Jessica had her beautiful baby at 8:19 this morning, a suprise to all, a beautiful baby BOY!  THey named him Preston Porter and he was 8lbs 14 oz and 21 and 1/2 inches long. Isn’t he gorgeous?  It was truly an honor to photograph his birth, Jess did amazing.  She was so strong and beautiful.

Welcome to the world baby Preston.

I forgot!

I forgot to add my favorite pic from this session! I want one of my family like this- BIG!

Jess and family.

Jessica is one day away from her due date and feeling every bit of 40 weeks pregnant.  I hope these pics cheer you up Jess!  Your baby will be here before you know it!

These will be thier last pictures as a family of 3! I am so excited for them!

Halloween wrap up.

We had such a fun filled Halloween week!  Between playing dress up with Evan’s costume, carving pumpkins, Halloween parties and trick-or-treating, it was exhausting but tons of fun!

Here are pictures of us carving the pumpkins, you will see that I even make an appearance in these photos.  And to add to the fun, you can play our version of “Where’s Waldo?” aka “Where’s Grant?” and find the one tiiiiny place Grant appears in these photos!  It proves he was there though!

And showing off our creations in action!

We also had tons of fun at our play group’s Halloween Party.  All of the kids dressed up spooked Evan at first, but then I let him dive into the candy and he got over it! Can you spot the mini Michael Phelps in this photo?  I bet as soon as you do you will laugh!!

And here are all the new babies in the playgroup!  We have exploded in the last few months!

And one of my personal favorites from playgroup was baby Sophie dressed as a flower.  And her momma made the costume!

And how can you look at this pictures without smiling?  Dan dressed up as a clown for Halloween.  Yes he wore it to work.  And yes, he wore those shoes out trick-or-treating too!

And to cap off the post, Evan and his two buddies on the way out the door to trick-or-treat! Happy Halloween!

My robot and his spaceship!

Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year for photographs.  I get to dress up my kids and take silly pictures of them! I took Evan down to the park to get these shots of him and his spaceship!

And the costume has come out!

Evan has been excited for Halloween, oh for about 2 months now?  He would look through countless catalogs and point out everything he wanted to be for Halloween.  It ranged from a witch to a sandwich and even a watermelon.  I finally helped him decide on being a robot.  It’s all about robots these days.  He has a robot shirt seen here, robot sheets as you can see below, and now he is the robot! He loves to wear the costume and proclaim, “I am robot Evan!”  Can you picture his silly monotone robot voice? It’s too cute!

The light pouring in from his window here looked to me like his spaceship was coming to beam him up!

My favorite of the bunch, Evan and his lovie - Freddie, bouncing and having a great time.  It’s a very special treat to get to jump on your bed you know!

And last but not least, my little robot is already perfecting the art of eye rolling. (Insert eye roll of my own here!)

Photos of him in his full costume to come!
