yesterday was a gloomy day in chicago.  i’ve finally started putting away summer clothes for myself and the boys. ::sniff sniff::  but . . .  this little one was such a happy guy!  he didn’t care if it was raining or cloudy!  and boy did he have a lot to say – we talked the […]

i was laughing with this family about how cheerful i sound when writing in my blog.  but, i’ve realized, how can i look at these cute faces and not be cheerful?  i remember when i had my first son, my husband and i would just look at him and be amazed at all of the […]

this sweet girl was so adorable with her big blue eyes!!   her mom loves the hat she’s wearing and so do i! this is exactly what i mean when i say that color and texture look great in photos!  don’t be afraid of color!! what a beautiful family!

we all have a friend like this.  the kind of woman that takes everything in stride – even when her world is turned upside down.  well, the superwoman i know sold her house, bought a house and delivered her baby about 6 weeks early – all in the same day!  oh, and she has a […]

just sharing a few images from a great session last week.  a sweet little newborn and her older brother who was on the go!  i had to work fast to keep up with him!!  enjoy the sneak peek!  

back from a long weekend and still playing catch up! this sweet baby looked like a little doll!  her skin was perfect and her eyes were as big as saucers.  she was such a champ – so laid back – and then finally, when she’d had enough, she fell asleep!  so sweet!  

little miss s was so sweet – we chatted and had so much fun the entire time i was with her.  we talked about princesses and the colors of the rainbow – all sorts of things!  miss s is already a little sister, but soon she’ll be a big sister!!  stay tuned . . .  […]
