Nothing like finishing off the year with an adorable little guy!  Meet Maddex!  He was so excited about his session he almost forgot to sleep.  Good thing I have lots of tricks up my sleeve to get these little’s to sleep. haha  But honestly he did awesome just in his own time.   Some times it is just a game of who will give up first.  Anyone that knows me knows I don’t give up easy. bwhaha  We did lots of bouncing and had plenty of time to cuddle.  My baby hunger has been fed again so who could ask for anything more. 😉

I have been so spoiled this month with all the sweet little newborns.  Today it was Ridge and Rhett’s turn to come and play with me.  There was plenty of snuggles to go around with these two super sweet little guys.  When you work with twins things can go pretty slow because lets  face it they are in control.  I know lots of tricks to help soothe them but if one wants to be awake you are kind of at their mercy.  The key is just to keep breathing through everything.  Just keep working and pretty soon they give you just want you want and sometimes something even better. 😉  What an honor it has been to preserve these little guys while they are still so little.  Don’t blink!  Before you know it they will be buying their first car. 😉

So there is just something magical in the air.  I love this time of year.  People are polite to each other but there is a new hope born this time of year.  The desire to watch out for each other and put others needs first.  We had quite the treat at my studio last night.  I will never forget how those cute kids lit up when they got to spend time with Santa.  We learned about the North Pole and he also taught us that we can love everyone especially if they are different and most importantly if they are different.   We found out he loves hugs even more then cookies and milk.  I can say each child that came left feeling even more important then they came.  My girls have talked non stop about this experience and when their dad got home from work I could see the magical glow in their eyes.

I just want to take a minute and thank everyone for being part of this.  It warmed my heart and will continue to as I go through all the many images we got together.  Take a minute and share your light with someone this holiday.  You would be surprised what a smile or a hug can do.  Sending lots of love to you all this holiday and a Very Merry Christmas to you all!

Love,

Well I got my newborn snuggles in today to fight off the baby hunger. haha  I am pretty sure this has been the best job in the world for that.  Check out little Kinlee!  She came and totally rocked her session.  I think there was just a minute where she was a wake and looking at us.   And can we just talk about all that hair and those cheeks???  So  many cute shots it was so hard picking just a few to share.  Thanks again for bringing her to me you guys and for trusting me with your most precious little girl.
