This is Alec. He is 3 years old. He is my friend Melissas son. This is the perfect age as far as taking pictures....follows direction & full of personality, can't beat that.
These two cuties are Hannah & Paul. They were a very nice family to work with.
Yeah, I know this picture is all wrong. I cut part of Hannahs head off, but it worked out perfect because she had a big bruise on her forehead & the mother ended up using this picture for her holiday card. As long as she was happy, I was happy.
Trying to get 5 kids to sit in front of a camera at the same time is pure chaos...it took alot of people to make this happen! Richard has 4 pals that are very close in age to him. It's great & it's great that they'll all grow up together because Tim & I are friends with all of their parents. It was funny..we were all pregnant at the same time. There is Amber who was born in January 2005, Justin & Damon who were both born in March 2005, Richard who was born in July 2005 & Reese who was born in August 2006. Here are just a few from today...I love how all of the different moods & personalities are captured in these...
These Candy Canes did the trick for a little while...
I'm almost done with training at Sovereign Bank. It's been tough being away from Richard full time 2 weeks in a row, but I'm more ready than I was a few months back. If you had asked me to be away from him before he turned 1, forget it. I would've been heartbroken. I feel blessed to have been able to stay at home with him all this time. It's nice because he gets to spend extra time with both sets of his grandparents!
This is James. This is Rachels cousins baby boy. He is about a month old. Isn't he a doll? He did not want to sleep for us, at all, so we were very lucky to get this one sleepy/newborn type shot. I love a sleeping baby. They just look so angelic. I've been so lucky to be able to photograph all these cuties.
Just a couple from today.....we were heading out for church & had a couple of minutes to spare. It was a beautiful day out, so we decided to get a few shots in. I love Richards puppy dog hat. Who said girls are more fun to dress? I have so much fun dressing this little man!
This is Reese. She is almost 3 months old today. She is Mike & Marys baby. Isn't she precious? Look at those cheeks! I can't decide if I like this first picture better in black & white or the color.
It was Richards 2nd Halloween this year. I figure this is probably the last year I can get away with dressing him how I want! It was between an Octopus & a Bear! I decided on the Octopus!
Here are a few flashbacks from Halloween '05, Richards 1st Halloween at just 3 months old! He was perhaps the cutest Lion we ever did see.
Here he is living it up with his cousins, Logan & Emma.
Today my mom, dad & I brought Richard to get his very first hair cut at Snip-its! He's 15 months old today. He did so good! Doesn't he look so proud in the last picture?
Here goes nothing....I'm finally jumping into the world of blogging. I will still maintain Richards web site. His web site is all about him, but this one will be a little bit of everything. So continue to enjoy RAD's web site! You can find the link to that here: http://www.babyjellybeans.com/web/do/site/home?ID=74169
