"Tiny fingers, tiny toes... a baby girl arrives, a family grows."

Two of our good friends had a baby last month and I was thrilled to take photos for the birth announcement. I'm very smitten with Miss Molly, so expect many more photos as she grows.

A family, a park and a LOT of laughing. Is there a better way to spend a Satuday? Oh my gosh, we had fun. These boys are SO sweet, they made sure to hold my hand crossing the street, they're VERY polite, and did I mention the laughing?

Harrison is the big '1' this week! He's a mover and a shaker, walking all over the house. And what's the best part about turning 1? You get a whole cake ALL to yourself.

Happy Birthday, Harrison!

On the whole cake there was only a few tiny specs of black, and of COURSE that's what he went for. For the first few minutes it looked like he had a tiny mustache. It was pretty funny.

A little for me, a little for you.

The best part. Smash the cake!

A few months ago my friend, Alex, asked if she could enter one of the photos I'd taken of her son in a photo contest. Heck yes! I need to be doing more of that myself. The contest was for Austin Family Magazine, "Austin's source for smart parenting and healthy homes". I gave my permission and didn't think much of it until right before the holidays when she let me know the photo had WON! Not only that, the contest was for one of their 2010 covers!

We're waiting to hear what month we'll be featured in. As soon as we know, I'll shout it from the mountain top (so you can grab tons of copies, of course). You can find the magazines in various places around town - it's in the major grocery stores, cafe's and doctor's offices.

That cutie at the bottom is Enzo! I took that during his mom's maternity session last year. Photos from that session (including the original one of Enzo) are over here if you'd like to take a look.

You might recognize this fella, I just can't get enough of him! It was a perfect day, Austin isn't quite ready to embrace fall. We took a walk thru the neighborhood, pulling Harrison in his brand new red wagon and then headed over to the park. It was a big day of firsts - first red wagon, first visit to a park, first trip down a slide and a swing on a swingset! Who knew 9 months was so exhausting!
