The Porter Family

Our friends Brian and Anna recently added a new member to their family- a little boy named Jackson! His big sister Payton is so funny and super cute. I had a ton of fun running around with her, she's pretty quick! They are such a beautiful family...and their dog is awesome :o)



Jack was getting ready to eat when I got there so Payton showed me her room and her cool princess makeup table, then we played outside for a while.





Is that not the cutest pedicure ever? It even matches her shoes!

Then Jack was ready for me! He is so, so, so cute!! He was really good and very patient...

We couldn't leave Vito out! I told you he was awesome :o)

Then Payton showed me how to be a cowgirl. She was very good at riding her horse!

Thanks Porter family! I had a blast- can't wait to do it again!

Such a big girl!

I had the opportunity to shoot a 1 year birthday party over Memorial Day weekend and it was a blast! Little Miss Paige had an awesome party with tons of friends, yummy treats and a truckload of presents! Her mom did a great job with the flower theme and everything looked perfect!

Is this little guy not the cutest thing ever? :o)

In a sugar coma...

Happy Birthday Paige! You're such a big girl now :o)

Catching up...EASTER

Just a few randoms from Easter...

Simon didn't want to be left out.

My nephews did well in their Easter egg hunt!

Don't they look handsome?

Jake got a basket of his own too! I love this picture! He looks e-v-i-l...very Chucky-esque.

A Year In Review- kind of.

Every month since Jake was born we took a picture of him in the same spot so we could watch the age progression. Like this:

Missing 7...

Missing 9...so annoyed with myself.

...which brings us to Month 12. This was a challenge! Jake would not sit still long enough for me to take the picture. He was WIRED! We had just gotten home from Build-A-Bear.

I'm pretty sure Monkey slipped Jake some sugar on the way home that night...

(He pulled down all the art that was hanging from the clips in the background,

that's why it looks weird)

"Hey! What's he doing here?!?"

"Not cool, man. Not. cool."

After 20 minutes of insanity I gave up. We ended up with this as the 12 month shot:

Now the question is when do I stop? I think I want to do this a little longer...maybe 18 months?

Ok, 24 months...
