Family Ties

These cousins got together over the holidays
and stopped in for a photoshoot...

Our Little Princess

Thanks to all of you who continue to check in on our little Kendall :) She is still having her "seizures," but they are a little less frequent than they were and we have discovered that they are "triggered" by us telling her "no-no." Sounds strange, I know. It doesn't seem to matter what tone we use when saying it either, she just starts staring off into space, drops her binky or anything else she is holding, drools and sways back and forth, as if she may fall. It is the weirdest thing. We have almost wondered if she is starting a fanatastic acting career :) But of course we hear from everyone, that she is much too young to "make herself" do this, besides I am not sure how she could make her eyes flutter either. I guess we'll find out more when we meet with the neurologist on 1/21. Thankfully, she does not seem to be in any pain.
Thanks again for all of the thoughts and prayers!

My nieces stopped over for some fun with my daughters :)


Sibling Rivalry?

Nope, not with these two! Aunt Lori loves you both!

I think we are all feeling this way....

This pic made me laugh because it is exactly how I feel when I look
at the calendar and see how quickly Christmas is coming......
I haven't started wrapping a thing!



Then I realize there is hope that I'll get it all done.....

PJ Party

Grandma had a great idea to have a PJ party for her Grandkids!
I had fun capturing each of them, especially little "B,"
my challenge for the day :)






"A" could not wait to get dressed as a fairy-princess!
She just knew the outfit was made for her,
I think I could agree with that! :)

Introducing Sweet Baby "G"....

What a good time I had meeting Little Miss "G!" She was a perfect Angel :)
Thanks for bringing her Kara, she is so beautiful!
I could have taken a million more pics....















Kendall

Well, we went to see the Dr. and discuss our options with Kendall. Since her EEG and bloodwork came back good, the next step is to see a neurologist. The first appointment was scheduled for 2/5! The nurse and I agreed that this was not acceptable and she called another one....this time they told me 2/14! YIKES! When I explained that Kendall is 22 months and having unexplained seizures the lady apologized and said there was nothing she could do. Any of you who *know* me, just know that I will not simply accept that answer :) After some *encouragement* she was able to get us in 1/21 and will keep us on the list of cancellations, so that we could potentially be bumped up. In good news....we have not noticed any seizures over the past couple of days. However, they last 10-20 seconds..so it could be that she has had them, we just are not seeing them. I will keep all of you posted and appreciate your thoughts and prayers. Blogging is a great way to network and stay connected(and it's FREE!).

I have a photo session today and I cannot wait to meet this little girl....I'll post a sneak peak later!

Not my typical client..

I don't typically photograph dogs....
but since this one acts so much like a kid....
Meet Nellie......

Opposite Day?

My 4 year old son, Adison, asked for a pudding after dinner tonight. I let him have one and afterwards he left a mess on the table. When I told him to clean it up, he said, "NO!" I said, "Excuse me, but you do not talk to me that way." His response, "MOM! Today is opposite day...NO really means YES!" hahaha!


Anyway, after the pudding, he needed a little help cleaning his face..... :)
(Not really, but it sure sounded good once you see the pic)


Kendall Update...

First of all, thank you to all of you that have been emailing and calling about our little Miss... We heard back from the Dr.'s office today and all of her test results came back good. Sounds like good news, except that she is still having the seizures and now we have no idea why. She has another appointment with our Dr. tomorrow morning and I'll find out where we go from here. In the meantime, we are going to start tracking her diet, to see if there are any consistencies. Please continue to pray for her and feel free to comment on the blog too. I modified the security settings so that you are not required to be a *member* to comment. Thanks again and I'll update after her appt. tomorrow!

Like Father Like Son..

I love capturing a father and son together....
I think often times the focus of "bonding" is on a mother & child...
Here's to all of the great Dad's out there.

BFF's

Have you ever had a best girlfriend that you felt was meant

to be a sister? These two girls are truly BFF's!





Happy 1st Birthday "A"

Such a sweetheart....Mom brought a dress for her to wear that she had
worn for her own first birthday pics! "A's" Great-Grandmother made it...
What a great idea to pass along such a special dress....

Our Girl

Our Daughter, Ally, entered her first pageant this year...Although she did not win the title, she went out in style....Even though I told her to throw down her contestant number and call the judges "LINT LICKERS!" Ha! Below is a pic of my hubby and I with her afterwards...


US Coast Guard

I took this photo for my Step-Dad while in Mackinac this past August....
