These are Zoe’s flip-flops.

She’s obsessed with every sort of creature that lives in the ocean, especially fish. But, Old Navy had no fish flip-flops…only seahorse flip-flops. Zoe didn’t mind, though.

See the two little black dots on the inside of her flip-flops? Those are there because even though there’s a 50/50 chance of getting flip-flops on the right feet, Zoe gets it wrong 95% of the time. So, before she puts on her shoes, I tell her to make her dots kiss. She loves doing it (she giggles every time!) and it works like a charm.

Mmmm….soft serve.

Due to her propensity for dropping ice cream cones onto the sidewalk, Zoe had her ice cream in a cup.

And so did Sonia.

Joshua and Lisey can easily handle cones.

Have I mentioned that I feel really fortunate to have two blue-eyed subjects that live with me? My husband and I both have brown eyes, so having two blue-eyed children was a nice surprise!

I like my brown-eyed ones too, though.

Happy Birthday, Miss C!

This morning, I had a photo session with a young client whose first birthday is right around the corner.

We met bright and early.

And it was quite a hazy and warm morning.

I love baby hands (I can still call her a baby, right? She’s not technically one yet).

And doesn’t she have an adorable little smile?

Of course, I can’t resist doing a few black and whites.

I’ve said this about Sonia before, but I think Miss C looks just like a perfect little doll too.

I’m still busy sorting through the mountain of pictures I took, and I’m thinking I might feel compelled to share at least one more post’s worth of her pictures before I’m done.

Bubbles are no good for eating.

I brought some bubbles along on Saturday for my photo session with this little guy and his family.

He was pretty fascinated with them.

And all was well, until he tried to eat them.

He decided that maybe wasn’t the best idea.

A few pictures from this morning’s session…

I thought that we weren’t going to be able to use my favorite dock at all because in order to avoid direct sunlight at this time of year, you have to arrive there at some ungodly hour. Happily, though, we got partly cloudy skies this morning, and we got to use my beloved pier.
