Here I go again...

So we haven't been shooting as much lately but we've got a few sessions coming up soon. It was mostly on purpose that we didn't book anything for January-we needed a break from the craziness of the holiday season. I at times thought my computer was going into overload from all the editing it was being forced to perform :) We are starting to book sessions for the spring, so call us and get your spot reserved. We're sure to get busy quickly, especially with the promise of spring around the corner. Even with the fresh snow we got today...I have hope that spring isn't too far off!
Here's a few pictures of Josiah I snapped quick today...he's 3 months already and I have no idea where the time is going, but I sure am enjoying it. He's got a dimple that makes me just want to nibble his cheeks all day long! He absolutely loves his hands, he's more a full fist kind of guy, rather than just one measly thumb :)
Keep checking back often as there is sure to be some of Sonja's newest little one up here soon. She's more than ready to have this little bambino-and I'm more than done waiting to find out if it is coming home in pink or blue. I'm usually about 70% accurate on gender predictions but this little one...I just can't decide.

Taking our blog hostage for selfish purposes...

So I love to show off my kids...that's no secret! Josiah was taking a great nap so Andrew and I ran outside for some fresh air. It felt wonderful and I can't believe what few months does for a toddler's coordination. He's no Joe Mauer, but he can certainly hit the ball 100% further than he could in the fall. He had his 2nd birthday recently, along with the age 2 comes many things :)

70% of the time Andrew looks like this.....

The remainder of the the time...he looks a little more like this....

Oh, the emotions of a 2 year old! I can sympathize with him though, this is about what I looked like when I was pregnant :)

I can't bring myself to cut his curls yet...it's a little long and I'm risking it turning into a full fledged mullet, but this is still quite possibly my favorite view of him.

And here is our adorable neighbor friend. I couldn't resist snapping a few of him while we were out playing, he's just so stinking cute!

Thanks for letting me show off a little! Your turn Sonja...

"E" is Three!

If anyone ever said 3-year olds didn't have very much energy, then they haven't met "E"! Actually, I don't know anyone that would say that, but "E" just had an extra dose this day because it was his 3rd birthday! What fun we had chasing him and playing games with him to get him to sit and smile for us! And when he did, his smile was worth it! It just lit up the room. Thanks for letting us be part of your birthday fun, "E"! Hope you had a GREAT day!

Could these eyes can any bluer??

Remember this cutie? She was just 2 weeks old when we first got to shoot Sweet Baby "D" and now she's 3 months old already! And I must say she just gets cuter and cuter and her eyes have just gotten bluer and bluer! This wasn't her most smiley of days, but I don't think that matters...she's just as cute as can be! Happy 3-month birthday Miss D :)

3-month beauty...

It is so fun to have repeat customers because we get to see the kids grow and change too! Miss "L" was only 5 days old the last time we took her pictures and now she is 3 months! The time has gone so fast, but she sure turned into a cutie! Thanks for being so fun to photograph, "L". We can't wait to see you at your 6-month photoshoot!

Happy New Year!!

Happy New year to all of you!! We found a little time to catch up and get some rest over the holidays. Hope you did too! Fortunately for one of us (not me) that involved a quick get-a-way to Mexico! I got to do a quick session with a family, all together for the holidays. Hope the MN weather wasn't too cold for the California crew. They certainly had a white Christmas without any dreaming about it!
Enjoy your sneak peak :)
