woo hoo - go Zach!

Just another sign.... he's growing up! Yesterday
Zach asked me out of the blue to take his training
wheels off!:( I was a bit sad cause I love little kids
and training wheels! I ran up and down the side walk
with him for only a couple of minutes before he was off
on his own! He was so excited and has to show everyone
that comes over his new big boy trick!

This morning rachel, Emily & I trespassed onto our neighbor's
lot to take these pictures! our property used to be divided by an old
potting shed, but was never replaced with a fence! Hopefully for my
sake they never do! The adorable flower clips were a gift from a client
of mine! Have I ever mentioned that i have the BEST job ever!
Thanks Laura! www.louloudesigns.blogspot.com
For some reason the format keeps changing....I know -
it's hard to read!:)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

Sqirmy Little Angel

Here is a favorite from today! I just love her mouth in it!
I have been tagged twice this week and I promise I will get to it soon!
I just have to find some time! :)

our singing debut!

Well, I just had to drop in and tell you about the bolton family singing debut! Today was our Primary program! paul, and I had to sing with the kids the second verse of " Love is Spoken Here" Well, Paul can't and won't sing worth a darn, so we have been practicing FOREVER!!!! He actually got the hang of it - (good job my love!) Anyway, Little Rachel knows EVERY word and Zach has been bellowing it out for weeks! SOOOOO.... The day is finally here and Rachel gets up and her eyes are as big around as I've ever seen them! She is TERRIFIED!!!! She cluthches the hand held microphone and mumbles a few things here and there! In the mean time, Zach is literally swallowing his Microphone and singing on the top of his lungs! I don't know if everyone was crying because they were so touched, or crying because they were laughing so hard! Maybe is was a bit of both! I love how proud he is of himself! When we got home he said, " mommy, I sang loud like the singing lady told me to, huh?" Rachel says that she wants to sing in church next week too!
Hmmmm......NO!!!!!

sQueeZe those cheeks

I had the chance to photograph cute baby
Mitch! It was all I could do to keep from squeezing
those yummy cheeks!!!:) Thanks for a fun shoot!

her little obsession!

Rachel's latest obsession is now ballet!!! It was cute at first,
but quickly getting old! Can I just tell you that her other
obsession is the potty! We HAVE to visit EVERY SINGLE
bathroom at every single store! Well, with her leotard, tights,
and tutu, going potty is quite an ordeal! I have finally talked her
down to normal clothes with her tutu and ballet shoes ( which are already
worn out!) I decided to take her to the Trax station down the street from
us and take a few pictures before this obsession fades away!

more of my rugrats!

Well, my fall season has officially ended!!! I had 22 photoshoots in October alone! Now that I am caught up I thought I'd take some fall pictures of my kids! The cute hair bows are from my friend Ali (her website to the right) - Thanks Ali - They are sooo cute! On my next post I will be showing you all how deliciously adorable Jack's attic hats are!!!:) (Also to the right!):) I would post some right now... but I can't seem to get Emily to keep hers on long enough to snap a good picture! We are slowly but surely working on keeping cute things in the hair!!!
Grandpa bolton has been asking for a picture of all the grandkids for quite sometime now - what better time to do it than now!!!! I don't think he was expecting it to be such an ordeal - 6 kids - ages 6 & under trying to sit still at the same time.....YEAH RIGHT GRANDPA!!!!

"Duka"

Well, Emily's new favorite word is "DUKA" in case your not sure what it means, it means "SUCKER"!!!! This Halloween she has developed a new love for them! She can rip the wrapper off faster than anything and if for some reason she can't get it open, she sucks on the wrapper until it gets good and soggy and then takes it off! She has been a constant sticky mess!!!
We had such a busy day - but a fun one! Zach had his Parade at school and then we went out for lunch and then trunk or treating at the church! What a great idea that was! It was warm and light outside so we could actually see everyones costumes! Paul even dressed up! He was an inflatable bull rider! The hit of the party! We hope you all had a great Halloween!!! Love you all!
