H fam--we finally got together!

I have known the H fam for a looonng time. They moved to Houston a while back, but we've stayed in touch (thank you facebook!), and we've been trying to work out a time to get together for pictures for well over a year. FINALLY our calendars agreed with each other, and I headed to Houston! The closer I got, the darker it got, until it finally started raining. HARD. But we didn't lose hope! I had a newborn session first (remember this angel? He's now a big brother!), and by the time the H fam's session rolled around the storms had cleared away for an extremely hot and humid evening, LOL. But we survived, had a great time together, and just when I thought we were probably finished--the SUN CAME OUT! I had beautiful golden light for a very brief time, but we made the most of it!

Here is their sneak peek (and it was SO HARD to choose just a few):

Baby S, one week old!

Another precious, perfect, handsome baby boy! And this one has a sweet big sister, too. I am blessed and spoiled with awesome clients, that's for sure. ; )

NEXT time, I'm just going to sit and hold the baby and forget all about my camera. For at least ten minutes. Maybe. I'll just schedule that in! (I love babies.)

Baby L, newborn Sneak Peek

Sooooo many sweet pictures from this session! Hard to choose just a few for a sneak peek!

 There were a couple of comments made on Facebook about the "wrong colors" and he'd look better on crimson and white, but he looks pretty happy to me right where he is. You Okie's can keep your crimson. ; )

 Baby fit inside his daddy's beanie! SO CUTE!

 This is one of my new all-time favorites...

MY kids in the bluebonnets!

Every now and then I actually get pictures of my own kids (AND I get them edited! lol). And to clarify, by "my" kids, I mean mine and my sister's. They're all mine. : )

 All 9! I only had to do one head transplant. Not bad. They're getting the hang of it!

 Of course, it helps when their daddies are standing behind me making them laugh.

 We call this the Stairstep Picture. Every year, between Handsome Nephew #2's and My Favorite Niece's birthdays, we line up the kids for a picture, because right now they are ages (right to left) 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 (and 4, 4, and 2--they don't "fit" in the lineup of numbers but we're not going to leave them out!). They used to actually be stairsteps going down, but they're starting to catch up to each other. Except Kimi, and her 2yo cousin is almost as tall as she is! haha!

 They think this is their 'reward' for doing such a good job for me--a silly picture. But really it's my reward. I have a dozen of these and they're all hilarious!

Hooray for cousins!!!

Baby C, 3 months old

Catching up on sneak peeks!!!

This is handsome Baby C. I was sent with great amounts of love from his auntie to give to him, and it was hard work ; ) but I managed lots of hugs and snuggles. I tell ya, my job is TOUGH sometimes! lol

On to the pictures:

 Dear Miss Cara,
I am DONE.
Thank you.
The End.
