This is Sophie, the darlin' little 9 month old daughter of my friend Becky. This little girl is so chubby and cute it was hard not to bite her! I took these over at Becky's house, in her backyard, Saturday morning (yes, I'm very fast - my new-year's resolution). Though I am still finishing up her online gallery, I thought I'd go on and post a few of my favs! Enjoy!

Becky is so beautiful and I just love this picture of the two if them. I loved their interactions together and Becky is in a lot of my favorites - maybe because I like her so much, maybe because they're just the best!

I did these pictures a while ago and never got around to blogging them because it was right before Christmas...This session was of my BFFE's 4 kids and their two cousins. After the session, I made this Christmas Card for Lindsay's family. I was thinking about this the other day because I want to start offering this service to all of my family clients for the 2009 holidays. The only way to do it is if everybody thinks ahead and books sessions nice and early....so think about that for this year. Any session(s) we do in 2009 before - oh, say October - can be made into a card for December - so keep that in mind. 

Here is the card........ I think I've done one every year (even if it's way late - Lindsay and I are big time procrastinators when it comes to our personal lives) and all or almost all of their birth announcements . The other images are from the session - some in the card, some not, and some of the cousins. Enjoy!

Lindsay is like the best mom model (and best friend ever!!!). (AND we have been friends since we were younger than her daughter is in this picture!)

That is Pony - he is my favorite horse here at the farm. He was very suspicious of the humans with wings - he followed us around and would not take his eyes off the girls. He really thought they were real! It was funny....
