Do people even still do that? You’ll have to forgive me because my child is almost a teenager (sigh) so we’re out of the loop.

If you’re reading from the NWA area, leave me a comment & let me know! Call it a poll, of sorts. :)

Just click at the top of this post (or below) to comment and tell me!

Gorgeous Michelle (and her awesome hubby Eric) and I shot these last Sunday.  Isn’t she radiant?  :)

If you look reeeeeeeally close in this next shot, you can actually see a photo of that little bundle she’s carrying! Come on… look close…

Yep! There he is. On the coffee table. :) He’s here, too:

Michelle & Eric – thanks for opening up your home to me and allowing me to be my ridiculously crazy self (I feel like we’re kindred spirits). And, most importantly, for giving me a reason to use the word radiant. It’s been on my list for awhile now. I hope you love these. :)

That last one really cracks me up… because I’m pretty sure this is big sis’ way of telling me what I suspect she has always wanted to.

And this one?  Well, this one just makes me want to snuggle that sweet baby.  :)

Mom & Dad – thanks for hanging out with me this morning! Lots more to follow!! :)

I’m super proud to call myself your parent.  And super proud to be the daughter of one of the most amazing women on this planet. I love you both way more than you’ll ever know.

This is, quite literally, just a tiny peek into our session this morning.  Kayla & Javier – I hope you love these.  :)

This little nugget is very much a daddy’s girl… but because tomorrow’s Mother’s Day, I decided I’d save the pics of Marley & Dad… and post this. Marley & Mom. :)
