Happy Father's Day...one day late ;)

I might be posting a day late, but the pictures and the gifts were on time!  (Small pat on the back for me).  My husband is such an amazing Daddy.  I could not have asked for a better Daddy for my babies.  So happy Father's Day to you my love!  And here is our youngest little angel, Olive....daddy's girl phase has officially begun!

baby girl

One of the most beautiful woman I know, inside & out, is gonna be a Mama!  It's so hard to describe to a woman that is about to be a mom for the first time, what her life is going to be like after the baby comes.  I didn't know myself until I experienced it earlier this year.  It's like you just look at other moms & you all just know the feeling.  No words necessary...Seriously ladies, no words necessary!  Ally & I joked about how when you are pregnant every lady wants to tell you their story of it all.  But no matter how many stories you hear, nothing is ever even close to what you actually experience & feel when that baby is in your arms.

I am excited for you & the journey you are about to go on.  You are going to be an amazing Mom Ally!

Sometimes I think I should put a hidden camera up to video the parents & I while I am doing a kid photo session.  If I had, the pics from this session would be hilarious!  But hey, anything to get the picture!  And we did get the picture! I mean, look at his beautiful face!

I love this time of year & I love it even more with little ones around.  They make something so simple like decorating a tree seem a little extra magical & fun!  Our little guy had so much fun being our assistant for the day.  All we had to do was tell him to decorate the tree & he was on it!  He got excited over picking which bulbs go where & he was so distraught over a broken ornament.  Good thing Daddy was there to fix it for him so he could finish the job.  Good job little man!

carson holiday minis

I absolutely loved doing these holiday minis!  I can't wait to do another session like this next year.  It turned out to be a beautiful day to do photos.  The sun was out & everyone was in a great mood!  Carson was such a little explorer, but what else does a 3 year old do!? He barely sat still as he carried around all the "apples" that I had, aka red Christmas bulbs.  It's always a good time following around a 3 year old as they move in between multiple trees then walk up to your camera and say "cheese & crackers" right in front of your lens!  Such a memorable day & little man!

gabbie

Can you tell that both her parents were models when they were younger?!?!  They created one beautiful young lady who doesn't even have to try to look good in front of the camera.  Gabbie was so calm and relaxed & moved in all the right ways.  It was so fun to watch her and her mother work together too.  They were in & out of the trunk of the car looking for the right outfits & accessories for her to wear.  I pray that when I have my little girl, we will be able to have fun with dress up just like these two!
