A Day at the Photographer

With the help of Michelle and Joy, I was able to take the babies to have professional pictures done. It was exhausting, but a great deal of fun. I think it's so important to capture these milestones with photos. After all, never again will I have babies this close in age. It is a precious and crazy time. These pictures were taken about a month ago.

First, pictures of sweet Caroline at 6 weeks old.


Look at those eyes!
Oh, and there's the face I love. She is so good at poking out her bottom lip! We'll probably see alot of that in the years to come.
I decided to have pictures taken of Caroline and I together. Even though, quite honestly, I am not loving with my "post-pregnancy" look these days, I think Caroline should have pictures of her with her mother at this moment in time. I love looking back at pictures of my mom holding me as a baby.
Not quite sure what we were going for here, but it was fun to do.

This is, in a sense, our 3 generation photo. Caroline's and my hands with my mother's diamonds. I can only hope Caroline knows, one day, how special her grandmother was.

Looking like a porcelain doll.


Sweet feet!



Love that pink bow on her ruffled bottom!



And now for Will....who was playing with Michelle and Joy during Caroline's pictures.

Just jabbering away at the photographer.

Looking quite cool on a firetruck.


He's such a flirt! Look at those teeth!


Just a candid shot playing with mommy.

I made a birthday cake to bring to the photo shoot. This was his first time to taste cake. He is definitely a fan.


Will knew just what to do with that candle. Eat the icing!

Both of our babies wear cloth diapers. I love the way his diaper matched the cake. It wasn't planned, I promise!

He always had this look like he was going to get caught. Almost like he knew he shouldn't be digging into the cake.


And, now for the foot!

Notice the icing on his belly. Too cute!


My favorite picture of him. Those eyes kill me everytime!
