Four | Dayton Children’s Photography
Our little Georige is four. I have a hard time writing this; I have feelings, thoughts, emotions and I’m not sure how to put them into words. I know parents gush about love for their children. They are so much a part of us. I love my girls more than I ever thought possible. Why is it they grow so fast?
Georgie is so much like her Dada: Silly to the core, but sweet and nurturing. She has an innate understanding of feelings and emotions and is super intuitive. She loves life and is forever positive. She often tells me: “It’s okay, Mama.” Her favorite color is pink (she will only dive for the pink rings in swim class). She loves being the big sister and is a very good teacher. She knows that Jesus loves her…and Mama and Dada and Vivi and Ollie. Her memory amazes us. She will sees/hear things not mention them until days later. She wants to play soccer for the “soccer socks, t-shirt with my name on the back and the pretty shoes with the pokey things on the bottom. She likes going anywhere and is along for the adventure. It might be in her genes, but she’s very visual and really good at puzzles. She cannot go to bed without ‘big hugs’ and a song sung from the Disney princess collection. Not shy, she is always the first to volunteer.
We have so much fun together and I cherish each moment.
Baby Jenna | Dayton Newborn Photography
Meet Baby Jenna. Isn’t she adorable? Her mama, Jessica, is in my book club. I love spending time with her. She’s so upbeat and bubbly and can talk about anything. AND she’s a huge Bachelor/Bachelorette fan (one of my guilty pleasures). She even throws a rockin’ finale party each season.
When we’re not talking about books, it’s music. Specifically bands. Jessica and her husband, Kevin, are huge Dave Matthews Band fans. It’s a major part of their relationship and played a very large role in how they met. You can read about it on Jessica’s blog here. So, I was processing these images and listening to Pandora like I usually do. When I clicked on the image of Jessica and Kevin holding Jenna, a Dave Matthews Band song played. Needless to say, I got a little teary-eyed. This little baby is so special to them. I love seeing a new family, a new beginning. And Jenna is beautiful—I mean, seriously, look at those lips!
Andrew | Dayton Family Photography
Oh my, how I love this session. Meet Chuck, Jessica, and Andrew. Aren’t they just the happiest family?! Chuck and Jessica are so warm and kind. It’s no wonder Andrew has such a pleasant demeanor. It’s as if he knows how much he is loved. And boy, is he loved!
He adores snuggling with Mama and playing with his Dada (and LOVES to jump on their bed!). Their joy is contagious and I can’t help but smile when I see these photos. So much love and so much laughter—such a great gift.
And we can’t forget another important member of the family, their Bull Mastiff, Harrigan. Andrew simply adores him – They are soooo cute together.
