I absolutely love these photos in the alley way.
I love the fun poses Maggie Beth made.......she is so funny!
Eli takes his modeling a bit more serious....
I absolutely love this shot of Hezekiah, but oh.....he looks so much older than he is....
Then we get his serious side.........
....then his usual crazy side.
And these of Magpie, I just adore the joy it seems to just radiate from her.
While some children are at an age where smiling for a photo is an easy task, others are still at an age of making faces......
silly faces.........that being Maggie Beth.
Oh, she cracks me up!
Apparently there was a time when my mom took me to get professional photos done (back in the day)
and that is all I did the whole time too.......perhaps she gets that from me!
Thursday evening we went downtown under the railroad tracks on the grey cobblestones to capture some pictures of our babies........but I just look at these pictures and realize that they are growing up right before my eyes.
To capture these moments, these precious faces, is something I will not regret.
Eli's art work.
An idea all his own.
We are going to print these photos and create him a name frame.
Someone still takes a nap.........not all days, but most days.
I know soon there will be a day that there will be no more naps........they will be outgrown.
Perhaps soon........but......til then.....
I want to remember waking her up from naps, I need to hide these special times in my heart and mind.
On a sweet day, I get to peek in on that sleeping beauty, above is what I see.
A perfect little profile, so content, resting so peacefully.
I like to gently wake her on those days she is asleep,
I love to kiss her little cheeks gently.
Sometimes it is a bit rough waking up, but this day..........Maggie Beth noticed I had a camera to capture the moment.
The moment of a little bug all snug in a blankie, over her little curls.
The grumpy wake up face turned into a sweet smile.
Oh, Magpie, oh how I love you!
Enjoy, and sweet dreams my love.......sweet dreams.
