When I think of Olivia I think of one thing – her many expressions. Well, two things… her expressions and her big blue eyes.
Um, yeah… ridiculous, huh??

Such a happy little girl – hanging out in her Woodstock shirt…

One of my favorites – the look of excitement in her eyes as she grabbed (and got a really good grip on) mom’s hair!

We zipped over to Rosedale Farm for a few outdoor family shots… mud and all!

Another one of my favorites – uniquely Olivia…

And, finally – the many expressions of Olivia…

There is another beautiful baby in this world – meet Nick. He is simply perfect in every way. Here are a few photos from yesterday’s session in his nursery. Congratulations, Steph and Ian. I can’t wait to watch this little man grow.
I love this shot – in a few weeks Nick is going to look completely different. This shot has newborn written all over it…

Reaching for Mommy’s hand…

So peaceful…

This guy may be a lounger!

A quiet moment with Mom…

Snuggled up with Dad…

This shot makes me laugh – the plan: a family portrait in the nursery. Well, it is a family shot, but Sydney (the dog) is supposed to be hanging out with her family… not dominating the foreground! Dogs and children – a mind of their own!

This guy may be a handful – too funny.

And what session would be complete without Cale – here he is meeting Nick. He wasn’t quite sure what to think. These two will be partners in crime in no time!

This past weekend we started a new tradition in our family – breakfast with Santa! What better place to meet Santa and Mrs. Claus for the first time than at Fleming Farm over a plate of their fresh scrambled eggs, pancakes and home fries. Yummy!
No tears this year – Cale was all smiles. What can I say… Cale loves red.
It was a bit chilly for a trip out to reindeer land this year – we’ll save that adventure for next year!

I have always been an active person – someone who enjoys being on the go. Having a baby has forced me to slow down, live in the moment, and just drink in life. I used to hate being stuck at home, but these days I relish days when we are home all day, just hanging out. Yesterday it was so cold – we went out and got all of our errands done early and spent the afternoon playing in his nursery. These are the simple moments that I am going to miss – watching him learn, explore and play. Man, life is so good…
This is a common view for me right now – our little guy, trying so hard to walk, loves to pull up on things, including mom’s pants… I think this is going to be one of my all-time favorite photos of him. No, not an award winner, but it is the one I love…

It has been so much fun watching him learn to pull up on the rocking chair – does it like a pro now, and even lets go and stands for a few seconds before gravity gets the best of him.

Our happy little guy… always looking for a good time.

We got outside just in time – the snow is just starting to turn over to rain. Here is Cale in his ***NEW*** house, enjoying his first snow!

No, that is not an icicle hanging from Cale’s chin… poor guy is on a non-stop teething spree. Yes, drool and all – I love it.

Not quite sure what to think…
