…try telling that to two brothers who love her a “whole” bunch. There’s no half about it. We are a blended family, but that just means there’s more love blended in the mix.

…the boys in the house sleep in. So, as not to wake them, we sneak out for early park days with Baylee. Today’s fun:

(the chimp crawl as we call it)

And a few more from yesterday… (Baylee’s daddy is getting a framed 16×20 of this for Father’s Day…but he doesn’t know yet!)

…and anyone who knows Lily knows this picture is so her…the little light from heaven just ENVELOPES her!

‘Musta died and went to heaven today because, seriously…4 baby girls in one room and a camera? Doesn’t get any better than that (oh yeah, Mommy friends and good food too!).

Official playdate at our house today (and by “official”, I mean Lainey actually sat at a tiny kids table with her friend and ate without, like, throwing it all to the dogs) followed by pics of these delicious babies… (I gave Lainey a break on the “shoot” today…Sistah’ is tired of that camera!)

I love this picture in black & white, but Baylee’s eyes are too fabulous not to leave them just as they are…

This smile just miraculously happened…thank you, Samantha! You know why they say babies smile in their sleep? ‘Cuz they can still see heaven there.

How the heck these kids all managed to behave for this shot, I’ll never know. I so pictured toddler hands clawing, newborns wailing and just a big wreck of baby carnage, but it didn’t happen. I’m quite sure my grandma secretly slipped down from heaven and was making faces at them behind me. Yes, I think that’s what happened.

…needless to say, I think there are going to be some pretty smiley daddies when they see these pics all framed up for Father’s Day.

Capturing little souls…nothing thrills me more. I get all teary and goose-bumpy just being with these littles and having the privilege to catch the wonder of them. …thank you Baylee, Lily, Samantha and Lainey…you’re all I needed today!

…enjoying the small things. ~k
