Isaiah turns the big 03

So this weekend I met Isaiah (and his parents obviously) downtown to take some pictures for his 3rd birthday. I cannot believe he is 3 years old! I remember getting the phone call about his birth like it was last week! He is every inch the big boy in these pictures though. I had so much fun and he was a trooper! We walked the length of the riverfront from Gay St to the walking bridge...through the "smelly fort" (his name) with almost 300 pictures in between. I love this kid! Obviously I had a hard time narrowing down my choices so forgive the longish post but even now I just want to show off more of them! We had a lot of shadow issues throughout the pictures, but basically I think they are great anyway! lol! Thanks for sharing this day and allowing me to capture these awesome memories! Love you guys!

So this may be one of my favorite pictures EVER...cute kid, awesome background, beautiful day...I love it!

I love the background here! And how bored Isaiah looks!

And just b/c I love him here he is with me being silly boy after we are all done!

Slumber Party

So right around the time Austin turned 3 months I had the chance to go spend the night with him...something I have not done since he was a newborn. How different he is! I have been marveling at his growth but spending this time really showed it. Holding him is totally different now...not only b/c of how big he is but also b/c he definitely prefers to be held so he can see the world now. It is so amazing to watch him watch things!

Big sister Madison was having a slumber party with her grandparents so no pictures of her this time BUT we did sneak some of her toys for Austin's pictures...he loves the teddy bears (okay I love the teddy bears with him...whatever). Enjoy the 3 month pictures!

Big Girl

So I took the last 2 year old pictures of Madison last weekend...7 days later she turned 3! (Pictures of that soon!) It is amazing how old she looks...I love that I have had the chance to watch her grow up...she is such a beautiful little big girl!

She looks WAY too big in this picture so I pulled out my daisy headband for her...

Okay still a big girl but at that is better! lol

She was channeling her inner "Hollywood" (that's what she calls our friend Holly whom she apparently adores...as we all do) :)

I love this one!!! Such a precious girl



Austin 2 Months

So Austin has been having a hard month...he was sick a lot and one of my visits with him was at the doctor's office :( not cool...but he is doing MUCH better now and I was able to snap some super cute 2 month shots of him on his official 2 month birthday!

He fell asleep before we got to try his new hat on him...have you ever seen a cuter little dwarf?

apparently though he was not a huge fan! :)



Madison Valentine Cutie

So last month when I did Austin's one month pictures I tried to do some valentine's pictures of big sister Madison as well. I gotta tell you she is NOT in the picture taking phase of her life! At least not for Aunt Karla. But she is gorgeous and cute and I did bribe her with a HUGE heart shaped lollipop so...I still came out with some great ones! Enjoy
