Meet Mike, Aja and their adorable kids – Austin, Reese and Sailer.

We have more of little Sailer I will post later (once I get the chance to go through them and pick my favorites!)

Austin has gorgeous blue eyes…

I love this picture SO much. I love how Aja and Reese are looking at each other, I love how Austin and Mike are looking into the camera and I love how Sailers little toes are peeking out of her dress… It is just yummy!

Reese found him some caterpillars… this boy loves his bugs!

This was not a ‘posed’ picture and I love it…

Coming soon I have a family shoot and an adorable little girl to share with you all; but till then, a little bit of spring and Kennedy after eating carrots at lunch today….

I took this picture a few days ago of a tree in our yard… so glad to see spring coming!!

And I couldn’t post just one of Kennedy, so here are a few… Oh! and guess what… she said “MuMa” this week! She only says it when she is fussing, but it still just melts my heart! Ah, the joys of motherhood….

Hope you’ve all had a fabulous week thus far!

I love softball, so when my cousin told me her kids were playing their first T-ball game, I said “I’ll be there with my camera!” And I was. And I took LOTS of pictures, not only of her kids but the whole team! There is just something about a bunch of adorable little kids all dressed up in uniforms, I just couldn’t get enough! So be warned; there are a lot of pictures in this post. I did make a couple of collages so the post would not be so long, the pictures are small in those, but if you click on them you can get a bigger picture.

(Parents of the team; if you would like a disc of all the pictures I took, feel free to shoot me an email. bobbiebrown5@hotmail.com or you can let Paulette know.. Thanks!)

I love love love this picture!

Water break!

This picture cracks me up! Haha!

We got Kennedy (my little girl for those of you who don’t know) and Kourtnie (my cousins little girl) together for a few photos again. And again, they held hands! So cute!

This was hysterical! Kourtnie put her arm in Kennedy’s face and Kennedy grabbed it and started licking, which must have tickled Kourtnie because she just laughed! It was so funny!

Finally, I want to share a few things I love with you all… First up is a Taggie Blanket, I had never heard of these till my mother-in-law made one for Kennedy. They have a solid ‘soft’ side and then a patterned side, and the entire thing has all sorts of ribbon around the edges. Babies can feel different textures in the fabric and ribbons, and when they are teething they can put the ribbon in their mouth and pull it out or just naw on it to soothe their gums. Kennedy likes to sleep with her soft side up against her face and a lot of the time she’ll stick her finger through one of the ribbons!

Below are a couple of pictures of one Bev recently made for someone else, the pictures are awful! Sorry! But if you are interested in one, or just want to know pricing or any other info, send her an email: evbevbrown@windstream.net

This is the soft side… for this one she used a pink dimple fabric….

Next up is diaper bags made by my Aunt Millie. Pictured below (again, please ignore the awful pictures!) is one that I had her make for a friend. These are the perfect size and are simply gorgeous. She can make different sizes if you need bigger or smaller, and she is always getting new material. So, if you are in need of a diaper bag, or just want some info on them, shoot her an email: miljo1203@yahoo.com

She also makes decrative burp diapers, you can even get them to match your diaper bag!

Carl+Cindy+Carl (jr)+Shannon+Tyson+Taylor+Jordan= One good looking family!

This was the last shot of the day and turned out to be my favorite!

I feel like I’ve been MIA lately from my blog… sorry! Here is a sneak peak of a shoot I did last weekend – more to come!

This girl gets serious about playing now, just look at that face!

…..I love this weather we’ve been having! Kennedy and I have been outside a lot lately, its the kind of weather that just makes you want to take pictures even more than the norm… and so I got a few of Kennedy touching the grass for the first time (which she loved!)

This one is on our front porch…

I even brought the hammock out of hibernation! Here is a picture I took of it I thought was kind of cool…

On a different note; I understand a couple of people have tried to email me but it never came through… if you have emailed me and not heard back, please leave a comment here and I WILL get back to ya! Sorry about that ya’ll!

Last week a few girls came over for a ‘picture party’. Basically we just pulled out all of my old photo albums, ate, drank and took a trip down memory lane… It was so much fun! We laughed at the clothes we wore, talked about who dated who, asked why we allowed each other out of the house with that hair style… It was a blast. It made me want to take my camera anywhere and everywhere with me again. I used to have my camera with me snapping pictures all of the time, somewhere along the way I have kind of gotten out of the habit. (I know MawMaw, you have been telling me this!) but after looking at all those old pictures I feel…. inspired. Inspired to capture those moments, moments at family gatherings, moments with friends, moments that otherwise slip by. Instead of letting them all slip by I plan to pull out my camera and capture a few of them. Its not that I never take pictures of everyday life, I just don’t do it near as much as I once did.

So be warned, if you are around me, I might just try to snap a picture! And blog readers, you’ll probably see a few of those pictures here! Like these from my party….
