My brothers family!!

So my brother and Kim are having another baby!
This will be the third, and according to Kim, the last! They already have two fantastic, beautiful little girls and are patiently waiting to see if the baby will be another sister or the long awaited brother. You see, Ty was a sports stud back in his day, he really wants a little boy to play football and share the man things in life. Don't get me wrong, he will love a daughter just the same as he has an enormously loving heart. The honest truth, my gut says he is having another girl. Sorry brother! Anyway, I finally got to photograph the baby belly! I was living in California the last round so I didn't get the chance to be a part of all of this. My favorite thing, besides the new baby, is the belly tattoo! Its so awesome!

I can't wait to meet the newest addition! I love you all with all of my heart and wouldn't miss watching your little girls grow up for anything in the world!

Cheers to number 3!!

Happy Earth Day!!!

Today I ask everyone to do something for mother earth.
Pick up the litter, bike to work, plant a tree, start your garden. Do something. If you can't do something then spread your love and donate to help save a piece of this place we all call home. Here are a few organizations for those animals that don't have a voice to speak for themselves who need our help. I don't know about you, I break down in tears over the thought of no more polar bears, clubbing of seals, depletion of sea turtles, poaching of tigers, elephants and more. We all must work as one to help save this earth, if not for you then for the children of the next generation.

Give a little or give a lot, it will make a difference.

Grayling James

This is a sweet post and moment for me.
I would like to introduce you all to Grayling James. Grayling (Gray) was born on April 19th. He is about 5 hours old in these photos. Graylings mom, Nikki, and I have been friends since before we could walk. We grew up next door to each other. Over the years we have talked about what it would be like to get married, to have kids etc. It is amazing how life changes and what things and people come and go, but, what truly amazes me is when you have friends that you honestly can't recall your life without. Connections of the heart are some of the most beautiful things we get to have in this life. The love for family and friends is the strongest connection of the heart I know. I am so blessed that I get to see the answers to the lifes questions that I had with my friend. Funny thing is, the answer came in a 7 lbs 4 oz package named Grayling.

Chunky Monkey!

I was able to photograph this little chunkers this last weekend. This is AJ, Anthony Junior. His dad kept calling him 'chunky monkey' during the photos and he would just giggle and giggle. He is 6 months old and 23 lbs!! I love fat babies!! I've always said I want a chunky little boy that I can just wrap up and squeeze!

Thanks for bringing AJ to see me, I've heard so much about him and am so happy I finally got to meet the little man! You two are adorable parents, I wish your family all the best and lots of love!

Thanks to you!

I just wanted to say THANK YOU to so many of my family, friends and blog readers!! I have truly been touched by all the kind words so many of you have emailed about the new site. It is always scary to just toss something out for the world to see. I have so many ideas just swimming around in my mind to do, I will be needing lots of help and volunteers that want to be photographed. Check back often, I'm dying to start some new personal projects!

Again, thanks!!!!
