Miss Maelyn

I took picture of little Miss Maelyn today....and I cannot believe she's 8 months old already. She is simply delicious...with her rolls upon rolls, and her crazy hair...here are a couple that I've gone through...

Critter Girl

I love my Lexi girl....she's such a little tomboy, with her nightly frog catching. While frog catching this evening, Lexi found a baby garter snake...and was thrilled to have it slithering all over her!

Goggle girl

I love how Bella wears her goggles, lol....she insists on doing it herself, without any help...

BFF's

Olivia and Lucy are spending alot of time together this summer.....and loooooooooooving it!! In and out of the pool, playing inside and out....they are the best of friends!

Lil' Hopper

We spent the evening tonight down the street at the little pond, catching frogs...this little hopper did not want to stay still....but I love Olivia's chubby little hand holding it...

Pretty girl

It was a beautiful day today...the humidity that we've had lately was gone, and it was warm and sunny and breezy! Took Olivia into the field behind the house for a little 'airy, in the sun' photoshoot. I processed these with a light, airy feel, because she was backlit by the sun, giving a hazy feel to the pictures...

I just love her hair...

...but not nearly as much as she does, she is always playing with it...

A little collage

Z, J, and E

Took pictures of some friends today...love these kids, really. The older, surly, irritated by her younger siblings....the middle child, goofy and all over the place.....and the baby, with her 'cheesey cheese' face that she kept making over and over...they had me laughing!!

Brianna

Brianna

We did some fun pictures of Brianna today up at the beach...I've got a ton to go through, but alas, its late and my girls are still up (ack!)...so here are two for now...

Little Water Bug

My little Olivia has completely forgotten about her fear of the pool...she has turned into a waterbug!!

Here she is proudly showing me that she can jump off the ladder and go completely underwater...

I love that she can now truly enjoy the summer!!

Just Because...

Just because she's so sweet....

...and sometimes she can look like trouble!

Bella's Year of Being 1!

Today is my baby girls birthday! Read all about Bella's year of being 1!

In July, when Bella was 11 months, she turned 1....

...and went to Maine overnight and spent some time on the beach there...

...and she thought it was hysterical when Olivia dumped chocolate milk over her head...

In August, when Bella was 1, she took a picture with her big sisters for daddy for his birthday...

...and had some juicy watermelon...

In September, when Bella was 1, she went apple picking...

...and had a visit with her friend Brayden (who lives in Maryland)...

In October, when Bella was 1, she took a picture with her furry friends...

....and was a sweet little angel for Halloween...

In November, when Bella was 1, she rocked a mohawk in the tubby...

In December, when Bella was 1, she decided she did NOT want to cooperate for Christmas card pictures...

...but we did get one for the Christmas card...

In January, when Bella was one, she took pictures with Momma....

...and got really sick with a stomach bug...

...and wore the same underwear as big sister Olivia...

In February, when Bella was 1, she celebrated Valentine's Day...

....and posed with her big sisters for this picture, which momma bought as a big 15x30 canvas...

.....and painted with green paint, lol, under daddy's watch...

In March, when Bella was 1, she looked peaceful and sweet during her nap...

...celebrated st. Patricks Day....

...and watched the horses at the farm...

In May, when Bella was 1, she spent alot of time in the daisy field looking for butterflies...

...and went to the beach alot!

....and enjoyed the warm weather in the kiddie pool...

In June, when Bella was 1, she went strawberry picking and ate more strawberries than we brought home....

...and took pictures one last time in the daisy field before they died...

In July when Bella was almost 2, she went to Canobie Lake Park and looooooooooooooved the kiddie rides....

...and posed for Momma to do her invitation pictures...
