I’ve known Mr. C’s mom my entire life, no joke. We were neighbors growing up. Our mom’s were pregnant at the same time. Mariah was born 3 days before me. And boy did she hold that over me for awhile. For example, she turned 16 first, 18 first, 19 first, then 21 first. But now I get to enjoy that she turned 3o first, LOL!

Anyways, Mariah and I have much in common (beside late October b-days). We are both the oldest, we have the same wedding anniversary (though mine was like 7 years before hers, lol), we both love Jimmy Buffett, we’re both teachers, we’re both the oldest sibling, and finally we are both moms. Mr. C brought one more common connection to us.

I’ve said before that I’ve had the perfect newborn, but C really was content to let me do anything. The only problem was this was a newborn session unlike ANY other! First my mom and Madeline were there, grandma was there, there were not 1, not 2 but 4 yorkies running around. I’ve never shot a session in front of such a crowd, LOL! Add into that the RAIN. It was dark and rainy but we did our best.

Despite the hoopla and circus that was going on, I did manage to get some sweet images of Mr. C. Mariah welcome to motherhood. As any mom will tell you, it’s one of the most amazing journeys you will ever take!

I posted about the La Folie Knits’ hat sale.  But it seems us photogs managed to crash the site and clear their inventory, FAST!  I did however get the hats I ordered.  I got the chance today to exploit Miss R again.  The perk of having a friend with an infant, you’ve got an instant baby model.  Miss R is just about 3.5 months old now.  And we caught these great photos on the kitchen table thanks to a Bumbo.  Boy I need one of those!
