I truly did not believe we were going to have time to put up a tree this year. Accomplishing this goal tonight leads me to think that maybe, just maybe, we’ll get around to taking the holiday card pic that I’ve been planning in my head for months now. Maybe…
Wow. I’m a little behind on this, huh? I have to say I had a tough time choosing because there have been so many amazing families this fall with some really unique images. I figure that since I’m so late in posting this, I could pick more than one for each month. [What is Pinkle’s Pic of the Month?]
So, here are the winners for October:


And then, here are the winners for November:

Congratulations to all of the finalists!
We’ve only known you for two years, but somehow in that short time, you changed the very core of our family. I can’t help but to smile whenever I talk about you. You have made me enjoy life more, dream bigger, and love more fiercely than I ever have before. You’ve turned your dad into a softy, your oldest bro into a loving guardian, and your other bro into a partner in crime. You turned me into a mother with a daughter…something I feared would never happen.
You are all things pink and sparkly.
A fashionista/commedian.
You have a songbird voice with an endearing baby lisp.
You love to sing and listen to music, current faves include “Monkeys Jumping on the Bed,” “ABC’s,” “Baby Bumble Bee,” and “Welcome to the Jungle” (you can thank your Daddy for that.)
Rosebud lips and girly lashes, I love to kiss your cheeks, rosy and warm when you wake from your nap.
You still suck your thumb, love your “Dat,” and have adorable elbow dimples.
You are excruciatingly independent.
You make us read “Pinkalicious,” “Brown Bear, Brown Bear,” and the dog book every day.
You wish you were brave enough to ride a pony.
You love shoes and make-up, but you’re just as rough and tumble as your brothers.
You could watch “Ni Hao Kai-lan” and “Yo Gabba Gabba” all day.
You love to tell “Knock Knock” jokes.
You love to give all of us sweet hugs and kisses and to yell “BOYS! Calm down!” when your brothers are too rowdy.
You’re the boss of us…and I couldn’t be happier.
Your birth day couldn’t have come at a more appropriate time…we are all incredibly thankful to have you. I love you. Happy Birthday!
After receiving several concerned e-mails, I figured I’d better post something…anything. Thank you sooooo much for your concern, but we are all just fine here. Just silly busy. I decided a few weeks back that the blog would have to take a break while I tried to keep my head above water over here. I thought I would be relieved to not have the pressure of blogging daily like I had been, but I actually miss it. Oi. It’s killing me to not post all of these sessions…and holiday cards (best batch *ever* this year).
Anyway, thank you again and I can’t wait until things slow down a bit so I can show off all of these absolutely beautiful and FUN families!!!

P.S. I’ve also received several inquiries about booking holiday sessions and fortunately/unfortunately, those are already booked up. I do have some options for New Year’s or I can give you a list of my friend photographers that might be able to help you.
And I feel very blessed to have been able to capture their beauty. As they are.
Okay, I did say I was taking a blog break, buuuuuut, since it *is* almost Halloween, how could I not share this session with you? (Plus, I’m sick and these images make me smile. Especially his oh so serious, “I’m Batman,” face.) I think it’s so cool that their mommy does Halloween cards every year.
And more fun shots from our time together:
