Photo Shoot!

My best friend Jen has an amazing talent for photography.  We are blessed to have her capture so many moments of our boys lifes.  She took their very first picture in the delivery room, documented their growth when I brought then home, took their dedication pics, and has been through each milestone with us.  She was gracious enough to let us crash her house with her amazing new floors to take 9 month pictures of the boys.  She captured their expressions and personalities with such ease.  

Beckett is a little ham for the camera. Seriously.  He was nervous when we first got there.. unsure of what was going on but as soon as I sat him on the floor in front of Jen, he turned on his charm.

Eli has a quirky little personality.  He has a very serious old man face.  Usually biting a lip.  When you get him to smile, he has a dimple under his eye.. but he really has the look of  "I'm way to busy for you and your sillyness mom".  He is all over the place too. Jen had to run him down to get his pics!

The boys have a bear that welcomed the home from the hospital.  Mr. Bear plays with them in their room, hides from them, tells them good night, and most importantly is the wrestling nemisis.  The boys recently have begun interacting so much.  They think each other is HILARIOUS!!  They are always looking over at each other in the bath tub and high chairs and dying laughing.  Jen caught a great moment with the bear.  I think these are my favorites.

They have these precious bath towels that our friend from church gave us and they are so cute on them. I wanted to capture this while they still fit.  Beckett is a duck and Eli is an elephant.  Jen and I laughed so hard she could barely get the picture. Eli kept crawling around "blindly" with the elephant over his eyes.  Jen was on the floor laughing and the camera was shaking.. best moment all day.

Jen put the boys on her bed and she documented some sweet "real moments"  I love the boys together and how much they enjoy each other.  It's like they share a secret between them that only they know.  And they think their mom can be really funny :-)

We are blessed beyond belief by these joyful, happy, lives that have changed us forever.  And I am blessed to have such wonderful documentary of the stages & moments of their little lives.
