This was quite a day at the studio. Ricky was a few weeks old and we wanted to get some pictures of him with his dad. Then we set out to get the family together. Oh yes, what a way to have fun - a newborn, a 2 year old and a 4 year old! This is the makings for what is commonly known as "photographers birth control". Actually everything was going quite well. Brian was setting up the family with Katie, the 2 year old standing behind mom & dad, who were sitting on the floor. For a reason only Kate knew, she decided to leave the group. She walked right over to me and without a word gave me the sweetest kiss! Now who could discipline her for that - and no one had better! She may as well as have taken my heart and put it in her pocket!
Well, I guess after that, we must have been feeling pretty brave, because we put the girls in the ivory lace dresses to photograph them with Ricky. As you can see, he wasn't really happy about it all at that point, but this is just the sweetest portrait!
By the way, Kate is still very, very special. Her eyes just twinkle when she smiles. She makes me wonder just what is going on in that little mind.
