The Girls With Their Brother

I think you’ll remember adorable M and A…

(Their mama was pregnant when I took this… A YEAR AGO – OMG!)

Then baby W was born.

Ok – fasten your seat belt – THIS is how quickly time goes. W at nine months.

His beautiful and highly active sisters…

Little miss A there on the left – did NOT STOP MOVING. Oh man, I was having a heart attack every three seconds because she was balancing on a railing and hanging by one arm and swinging around like a monkey on a trapeze! But oh, A – you’re so beautiful and sweet. Little tickle monster.

Big sis M was a different story. Also a balance beam expert and athletic gymnast, however a bit more taken with having a baby brother – and definitely more taken with having the camera trained on her. Uh – can ya tell?

A wanted nothing to do with the baby, but M was different. She was lovin’ all over her little brother.

LOOK! I got them to sit together! Ok, with my assistant Kelly’s help, and with some serious coercing. But it happened. For a split second…

Mom had plans, so they did the hand-off during the shoot. Aaron’s a doctor (which helps because I’m sure he has the perfect bedside manner to deal with these active kiddos!) and after helping the girls with the sand in their eyes they gave him some very good love. THIS photo makes me melt. Sigh.

Then he became the ULTIMATE hero by getting a big hot pink strawberry sno-cone! The girls were ecstatic (and ya know I was too, hello photo op!) but W? Well, he seemed perhaps a bit jealous. OH this is an all time favorite photo – what a laugh!

What a great evening, thanks for playing with me, kids! Crista & Aaron, the kids are all just gorgeous and delightful. Can’t wait to show you all of them soon! Happy Monday – the SUN is back!
