Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch

I had the great pleasure to photograph this family for the third time this morning. I haven't seen them since last February when we did a newborn session for the little guy. Big sister, proud in all her four-year-old glory joined in on the fun again this time, as well as their 18 month old baby cousin from B.C. I had SO much fun! From the moment I stepped into the house, to the moment I left, the house was noisy with laughter. Everyone was laid back and HAPPY ... all we did was goof around ... and THAT in my very humble opinion is the exact recipe for a fabulous session.

We were going to start off the morning with some pictures roaming around outside, but decided to nix the idea, it was a bit chilly for the wee ones. Instead, we horsed around, made a mess, and watched them party like the rockstars they are!

and then we broke out the cupcakes. put them on a platter and set them on the floor in front of him. at first, he wasn't quite sure. 'should I grab one? CAN I grab one? what's that I hear? MOM's telling me to grab one? ok then, party on Wayne!'


but then this happened. 'so, uh ... whaddya think I should do about this little situation here ....?'


ah, but like the stories I love ... this too has a happy ending. he got his {cup}cake and got to eat it too! two of them, infact ;-)
