Happy 2nd Birthday Ali!

What a difference a year makes! (same skirt)

I love you so much my little crazy-pants sassy, silly, sweet baby Beezer! You complete our family and you are a complete joy. You are so smart and capable and creative already. You make us laugh so hard, you make us yell, you make us tear our hair out, and give us heart attacks. You are spunky and wild, but also sweet and kind. You love your brother more than anyone on earth, and it is the sweetest thing to watch the two of you together. You have a mind of your own and you know what you want. You are tough and strong, but also gentle and tender. You are my sweet little girl and I am so happy to be sharing a birthday with you! Happy Second Birthday Alexandria Mary!

Happy Valentine's Day!

I took the kids out in the back yard today (two separate sessions) to get some fun pictures on Valentine's Day while they were all dressed up. They were both their sassy silly selves and I enjoyed getting to photograph my babies again (loving the off-season right now!)

Snow Day!

It only seems to snow on the weekends this year, which is fine with me, because that means Ralph is home with me and the kids to shovel the driveway and sip hot chocolate. We've had a very mild winter, but I was checking my CF cards before a shoot the other day and I came across these snowy images from last month. Enjoy!

My little free spirit:

"Happy Birthday to Pizza!"

...said Alex. Jake and I laughed, and I turned around to see the "cake" she had made out of guacamole and taco shells:
