enJOYing the little things . . .

Baby Jackson

Jackson was just two weeks old in these pictures. Sweet little guy with a momma who really really loves him. His daddy loves him too, and I'll try to share a few of those pics another time.

It's been quite the summer so far for me and the kids. Online classes have kept me up until the wee hours of the morning. Then there's gymnastics, swimming, storytime class at the library and ballet that keeps us on the go almost every day of the week. We've already visited every major museum in the city except The Field with Cousin Jakey. This week we're hitting up the Brookfield Zoo. Busy is an understatement for us this summer, but we're having a blast!

Two Peas Community Contest

For all the paper crafters out there . . . my pal Erica and I are hosting a community contest over at Two Peas. All you have to do is share a Father's Day card over in the Gallery. Entries must be posted by midnight tonight, CST. For more details, check out our post HERE in the GG Blog. Winner, announced tomorrow, will win a gift certificate to the Two Peas store.

Here's a card sample that Cadence and I did together.  (Ronald, if you see this - happy early Father's Day!)

Happy Tuesday everyone!

Photo Session Playdate with M&M

Maeve & Madelyn - two little girls who like to play dress up, blow bubbles, giggle and make silly faces for the camera. That's pretty much what they did during our session! These two girlfriends are definitely BFFs for life.

Here's a picture of the two giggling over something silly. (Click on the pictures to see larger size.)

 

Madelyn's giggling turned into straight out laughter.

 

One of Maeve's silly faces.

All dressed up as princess fairies. I was going for a princess-y fairy tale-ish look when processing this image, lol.

 

M&M with their pretty mommies. The mommies enjoyed their own girlfriend time while I hung out with their little ones. :o)

 

Had to share these two lovely girls who are members of Madelyn's family . . . this sweet old girl was extremely camera shy. Every time I put the camera up to my face she turned her head away. I eventually got her though!

 

And the newest member of the family who at 9 weeks old has TONS of energy. It was a miracle that I got this shot. She was non-stop!

 

And finally, one of the girls on their way to blow bubbles at the park.

Thanks for a wonderfully fun time, Madelyn & Maeve!
 

Little Miss Madelyn

Thanks to this baby girl's mommy & daddy for letting me hang out and photograph their new family of three.

Here's the little miss in black and white:

 

 

Here she is in color:

 

 

And finally, my favorites of Madelyn with her mommy and daddy.

A few scrappy shares from me

New favorite of all three kids together on one layout. This was my seasonal layout for May's mid-month Garden over at Two Peas.

 

And because I can't stop thinking about these darn carrot cupcakes . . . I know, I'm obssessed! Did this layout for Shannon's weekly challenge.

Happy June everyone!
