Scout is One!

 I am a mom of three kids, I have watched them all grow up so quickly.  But I am still so amazed that this tiny little baby...

can grow into such a beautiful big girl in just one year!

Scout is the first little one that I photographed for a whole year through. We had many fun photo sessions since she's been born (and even a maternity session before she was born :)). Here are all of her photos... Maternity, Newborn, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and today I am posting her one year photos :) Leslie and Kyle did an awesome job with the props and cake, everything turned out great!

And some tears...

We had planned these fun photos inside and they turned out great... but we were also excited that it was a *warm* January day (in the 50's!) so we headed outside to snap these photos with mom and dad. I am so glad it was a nice day!! (And Scout wasn't afraid to give me some adorable smiles...)

Leslie and Kyle, thank you!! This has been a fun year watching Scout grow! 

Merry Christmas!

I hope you have all been enjoying this fun Christmas season! I love, love, love this time of year :) Here are some fun photos of little Reed (9 months old now!), perfect photos for this time of year...

Merry Christmas!

Scout 9 months

I have to admit, when I took photos for Leslie back in January I couldn't help but think how beautiful their place would be in the fall. This was a session I was definitely looking forward to! It was beautiful with all of the fallen leaves. It's so neat to see how much Scout has grown each time I see her. She is 9 months old now...

We had to work hard for these smiles :) Scout knew what we wanted and she made us work for it!

And of course, here is Scout when she was a newborn, 3 month old and 6 month old... can't wait for 1 year photos!

Alex, Heidi, Charlotte and Olivia

Heidi and her sweet family are back on the blog this year. Last year Charlotte was a little baby and this year she is the big sister :) These girls are 18 months apart, just like my oldest two children. I loved, loved, loved watching them together. It reminded me of my kids when they were both so little.

It was a windy and cold September day... these guys were troopers out in the cold! We had a good time...

Reed, now 6 months old

This little guy is back now sitting up, trying to crawl and smiling more than ever. I have never seen a more smiley baby! Here he is as a newborn, 3 months and now 6 months...
