The C Family

Bella and Emmi’s grandparents and aunt and uncle showed up in Tallahassee to celebrate Christmas.  Great time to squeeze in a photo session.

These two came from St. Pete.

And these two lovebirds came all the way from New York.  Had to get some southern charm with the moss in the background.  They don’t have moss like this up North.

Bella and Emmi!

Roxanne and Thomas Elliot

December 29, 2009

Dear Roxanne,

Christmas is over and a new year is about to begin and your mommy is still a walking cliché.

I love you more and more every day. I can’t seem to squeeze and kiss you enough. Daddy has taught you the word aggravate and I love it when you say “Mommy, stop aggravating me!”

Sorry, no can do. I refuse to stop “aggravating” you.

You still prefer to dress in Incredible Hulk, Spiderman and Wonder Woman t-shirts but you will add a pair of pink, plastic high heels or stick a big pink bow in your hair to make it just right.

You tell me all the time that you are going to kiss and marry Daxtyn.

You love it when I sing the K-I-S-S-I-N-G song and “Daxtyn pushing a baby carriage.”

You love being a mommy. Several times you have brought your babies to me to “babysit” while you go to work to take pictures.

You are a little bossy with Thomas Elliot and always creating scenarios for you and Thomas Elliot to play. Like cleaning and decorating the house, or playing in the beehive (tent) that Grandpa and Grandma got you for Christmas.

You make me want to work harder so I can give you the world. You make me want to play harder so I can hear you laugh till your belly hurts.

Love you more than a rainy day!

Mommy

Dear Thomas Elliot,

Uncle Bruce and I are so happy you are with us. Every day it is an adventure to see what you are up to and in to. You stay so busy exploring your world.

Your favorite Christmas present is the sword you received from Aunt Kim and Uncle Vince. You put it in your shirt behind your back and run around saying that you are a Ninja Turtle.

Out of the blue you will roar and start walking like a dinosaur. You are all boy and can be quite affectionate with the ladies.

You have it made in the shade with Kool Aid! You have so many Aunts and Uncles that love you. Aunt Kim and Uncle Vince took you and Johnnie to Disney World this past year and to Wild Adventures many more times. Your Aunt Kathie took you out to LA for almost the whole summer where you happily spent most of the time in the swimming pool.

And then you have me, Aunt Titi. I get to hug you evey day, put band-aids on your boo boos, watch you run and play and be a little boy. I get to tuck you in at night and ease your pain when all you want is Johnnie, Aunt Kathie or Aunt Kim. It’s okay that I’m not first on your list. You are always first on my list.

I love my Thomas Elliot.

Love you more than a rainy day!

Suppa Time

The band needed some promo shots before they hit the road on their busy schedule for 2010.  Happy to oblige.

The pink chair was purchased for brides and little girls in mind, but when Suppa Time spotted it’s awesomeness in the corner, they pulled it out for some shots.

Picasso had his blue period, this could be Suppa Time’s pink period.

We got Leroy and Vermin.

Then Dave and Steve.

Michelle & Bo

Bo will be deployed on Monday.  Michelle wanted pictures of the two of them before her man was shipped off.

Michelle with Bo dressed in his ‘blues’.

Kamryn Saige

She waited a little past her due date to make her grand entrance.  She showed up all pink and ready to dance.

Congratulations to Mom and Dad.  Your house will always be full of love… and dirty diapers for a couple of years!

Melody’s Belly Shots

Little boy Lawson might just arrive on Christmas day.  Mom and Dad can’t wait to shower him with love and more love.

Mom never had a sweet tooth until her pregnancy.  Now it is non stop pumpkin pie!

We did not have a white sheet handy but the dupioni curtains hanging in the studio will work.  Gives the picture more drama.  I love this image.

Happy mommy, happy baby.


Mollie and Adalynn

This says it all.

They showed up on Thanksgiving day.  Mom was very thankful to finally be off of bed rest and to have two healthy little girls.

I think this is Mollie.  I know that little Adalynn is 4 pounds bigger than Mollie but I can only tell them apart when they are right next to each other.

And if I am right about the above picture, than this is little Adalynn.

Guess who wears a lot of camo in this family.  Dad is hoping one of them will favor after his fashion sense.

Saving the best for last.  Mollie is the one awake and Adalynn is the one snoozing away.

Mollie and Adalynn’s Nursery

Their nursery is perfect and waiting for the first time they spend the night in their little beds.  Mommy just isn’t ready to be separated for even just one night yet.  Which many moms can understand.

Loving all the touches of pink and green.  Especially the hot pink, polka dotted lamp.

The crib bedding came from Target!  They have so much more for babies on line.

Two of everything.  Until their teen years and Mollie will probably be dressed all in black for her Goth stage and Adalynn will be all in Camo for her tomboy stage.

Just kidding mom!

The J Family

A fast photo shoot before they got on the road to visit friends.  Holidays are so busy and fun at the same time.

First up we have the heartbreaking look of the oldest, Myles.

Adelle and her fancy, red cowboy boots!

The newest member to the family, Cade.  He keeps everyone on their toes because there is no sitting still when you got a whole world to explore.

Miss Meg and Dan

Meet Miss Meg.  She is one of the many people that helps watches over Rox and Thomas Elliot when I am off working.  She helps Bruce and I keep our sanity and our marriage intact!

Meg and Dan wanted a photo shoot before they headed home to cold Philadelphia to be with their family for the holidays.

Miss Meg reminds me of Hillary Duff.  She is so good at posing for the camera.
