Distraction | Family Photography at Home

Oooooh, I’ve been looking forward to sharing this one.  This session, besides being about family photography at home, was about this little guy turning one.

Also in attendance were the birthday boy’s twin older siblings.This session, together with another one that I’ll probably blog next, gave me something I need to add to my list of most favorite favorite things about babies who are just starting to walk.  Are you ready?  It’s when a parent or big sibling are proudly holding baby’s hands so that baby can show off his new walking skills, and baby is SO distracted by how much he loves the parent or sibling holding his hands that he can’t possibly concentrate on walking — he needs to focus all his energy on staring adoringly at the parent or sibling who’s holding his hands.  Do you just love it???

Walking and adoring looks aside, I can’t say that big sister didn’t do her best to steal the show. 😉

Lots of silliness went on.

Along with laughing and cuddling and a quick walk to the park across the street.

Time spent alone with a mommy and her littlest (maybe last?) baby never disappoints.  Once you’ve reached this point with a third or fourth baby, you really, really appreciate how quick it all goes and how in the blink of an eye, those chubby cheeks and dimpled hands and, yes, those adoring looks will be only a memory.

(You can see the one that made me gasp when I took it HERE).

Can’t wait to hang out with this family again!

Thanks for looking,
