The "S" Family

Last weekend, I nervously watched the sky as I drove over to the "S" family's house. Please don't rain. It had been overcast all day but so far, no raindrops. About two minutes after I arrived, we looked outside and it was misting. Luckily, it stopped after we waited a few more minutes and we were able to head outside for a little while on this chilly fall day.

Ayla Ming: Nebraska City

We took our little lady down to Nebraska City yesterday and went to the apple orchards. It was a cool, overcast, fall day--perfect for taking pictures.

Paige & Paxton: 2-years old

Twins, Paige and Paxton, turned two last week. The first time I held them when they were teeny-tiny newborns, they weighed less than five pounds! They have grown into two happy, rambunctious little toddlers who gave me a good workout. I'm sure they keep mom on her toes at all times! I am often humbled at the thought of my friends who have twins when I'm amidst one of those moments when I'm completely overwhelmed with just one child. I don't know how they do it.

Makayla: 6-months

My little niece, Makayla, turned 6-months old last week. She is as chunky as ever and I love it. She also looks just like my brother...throw on a goatee and it's him. She's already starting to scoot and is so close to crawling. Little lady needs to be mobile to keep up with her four siblings!

The "B" Family

Just like in my last post, I have known this family for a long time. Ben (dad) has been one of my brother's best friends since they were in kindergarten. That's thirty years. Impressive, is it not? We had fun and braved the mosquitoes as we ran around this photography hotspot...there were several groups taking pictures that day.
