He's Here!

Arriving between the holidays, this lil' guy was the cheer in our Christmas and New Year!

Meet Liam Andrew ... a cute name to go along with a wonderfully cute kiddie!! He was wide eyed and curious the whole time my camera was out. :) It's so fun to be watched by a newborn, makes me wonder what he was thinking! Enjoy this little stage ... all too soon, he'll start growing bigger and stronger and you'll wonder where all this tinyness went.

Anxiously Waiting

This cute little family is waiting for their first son to arrive. Only a few more weeks till they get their wish too!! I can't wait to meet lil' Liam - I'll be taking newborn shots of him too, so keep an eye out for those cute pics!

Apple Orchard Fun

This post is dedicated to a cute lil' guy I was so happy to have met. His name is Colten and his grandma was my 2nd grade teacher! It was so fun to be able to photograph such a cutie. And even tho he thought it not necessary, we got some cute shots of him at Gull Meadow Farms. :) Enjoy! And happy fall!

Happy Spring!!

Hallelujah it is finally SPRING! Don't get me wrong, I love winter, snow, and cold - but I can only love it for so much time. Like for Christmas & New Years but Michigan can definitely drag out the cold. So I am really looking forward to the sun, the flowers, and the yummy smell of spring time in MI!!! yay!!

So I am working on getting my smugmug.com accountant up and running. I've ran into a few bumps along the way, but I think it's going to be up real soon!! :) And then for those who have shoots with me, well they can order their prints online from me!! woohoo! how exciting!!!! So I'll keep ya updated on that...

Milo's MRI and eye appt. were this past week. He did wonderful with both!!! Don't get me wrong, he was definitely grumpy after the MRI, but after they got all the wires and IV off of him and got him some food - well he was laughing and smiling before we left the building!! What a good sport we are blessed with. And the eye appt. that didn't seem to phase him either. The results of the MRI came back normal!! :) Which is wonderful. And the eye doctor did diagnose him with Nystagmus, but we kinda knew that going into the appt. - so it wasn't too much of a shock. But he is very, very nearsighted. He can't see much far away at all. And his right eye is worse then his left. So we have ordered him some cute kiddies glasses. And they should be here by the end of the week next week!! hooray! And we found that his head position, the way he holds his head and chin way down and looks up at you, that's his 'null' position. She was very impressed with it and told us not to discourage it, but to help him work with it. She also suggested that he may be a good candidate for surgery before he goes to school... so in a few years. But for now she said he's too young and that he may correct it himself with his glasses and such. It's something we'll have to wait and see. Anywho, am I ever excited to get his cute glasses!! :) I'll definitely post some cute pics of him wearing his new specs when we get 'em!

For now, I'll leave you all with a pic of Milo and his daddy. He sure has taken to him!! He LOVES laughing and playing with Tim. It's adorable. Milo lights up and gets so excited to see Tim when he gets home from work ... melts my heart!

Bri's Beautiful Belly

This is my beautiful cousin (who's more like my sister), Brianne. She and her hubby Charlie are expecting their first bundle of joy this July!!! :) They live down in Texas, so while she was visiting this week, we took some time while it was sunny and got some cute belly shots. :) Bri was such a sport too, because as nice as the photos turned out, the wind def. gave us, both, a fight!! It took some patience and goose bumps on Brianne's part, but after it was all said and done, we warmed up inside Plainwell Ice Cream and got some of Bri's favorite (Lemon Chiffon). :) I was honored to be able to capture this time in her life, and am very much looking forward to meeting the lil' one.

Thank you Bri! And I pray you had a safe trip back to Texas. I miss you already!!!
