Just Us Twelve Times | March

I’m really late getting this one up, but of course, I waited until the very last day of March to get my personal challenge done.  I did that on purpose though, not only because it was Easter Sunday, but because I knew we would all be together.  It proved to be a much harder task to get Samuel to sit still this time because we shot at my parent’s house and all he wanted to do was play with Grandpa!  Needless to say, I’ll have to try this without Grandpa and Grandma present this month;-)  Some of these aren’t the greatest, technically, but I love them!

Jasauntae James, a.k.a. JJ

This was a really fun session for me.  JJ’s dad is my cousin whom I hadn’t seen in 12 years because he’d moved away from our hometown in Iowa when we were juniors in high school.  Fast forward all that time and we are now living about an hour away from each other in California.  I had never met his wife or her son, but contacted her about doing some maternity pictures for them before she had the baby.  We were supposed to do pictures on March 9th, but JJ had other plans and decided he was ready to join the world on February 16th!  So on  March 2nd, I made the trip to see my cousin and meet his beautiful family!  So. Much. Fun.

The Babes

Since I talked about my babes in my very first post, I thought I should share some recent pictures of them!

There they are.  Aren’t they gorgeous!?  My opinion may be a little biased, but you know what?  They’re all mine!  Gracie is 5.  Just recently 5, but she won’t let you forget that being 5 is a big deal & she can do so many more things now that she is 5.  Like cooking.  She made muffins completely on her own last week (I oversaw the project, of course, but that is for another blog)!  She is the most AMAZING big sister to that little guy sitting next to her.  Samuel is 20 months old.  He is a little ball of energy & love.  He adores his big sister & wants to be anywhere that she is.  I have never felt so blessed as I do when I’m holding these two babes in my arms.  I leave you with some more shots from this fun session with them.
