Gramma playing with Kadence

What does a Grandma do when she's left alone to babysit while mom and dad go to Starbucks?  What else, pull out the camera, and take some pictures.  

 The next ballerina star.

 Four months and standing! Well, sort of, Grandma has her ways of making it all able happen.

 The next sugar plum fairy.

 Kadence in her Auntie Kristi's 1st Christmas dress. It was pretty big on Kade, cause Kristi was 5 months older on her 1st Christmas. The white lace on the dress was from my wedding dress. Every little girl should have a red velvet dress at some point in her life for Christmas.

 Beautiful Blue eyes

Sweet little Kadence.  Gramma loves you so much.

A Kadence Thanksgiving

There is nothing more joyful than having a little one around. We have so enjoyed having Kadence here for Thanksgiving, and so glad she brought her mom and dad with too. :-)

Here are a couple of pictures of our Thanksgiving Day, and yes, a great amount of the pictures were of Kadence.

 Gramma Kelley and Kadence. Lovin' my little girl hugs!

 Food, food and more food. Entering Pie Heaven.

 Uncle Phil had so much fun with Kadence, and she seemed to really like the baby in the mirror. 

 Kristi had to tell her all about Star Trek and of course teacher her how to read.

 The cutest baby in the whole world.

Uncle Phil had her giggling like crazy.

She loves her little play yard. Her legs were a kicking and arms going for almost a half hour squealing at the toys.

True is Two Pictures

Last week I had the opportunity to capture my sweet little niece True with her "Two Year Old" pictures. She really was more fascinated with "Puppy" and the "Meow" then having her pictures taken, but she still did good, and kept her auntie running.

My favorite shots of the day

 True in her "princess" chair and her "2" pumpkin, and about ready to take off. Had to shoot fast, cause she has more energy than I can dream of.

 Those that know True, know this is a True expression all the way! 

 She loved the "Meow" Fluffy (Charcoal) 

 Always on the run

 This is True doing her "Up" expression (when he lifts the house) and the wind helped make it even more hilarious. True, you are always making us laugh. She really couldn't get Pooh out of the pumpkin and had to have her mom help her get him out.

 One of the few times she actually looked at me. So precious.

 Admiring Grandma Honey's Porcelain doll.

 Trying on the doll's hat.

 She loved Grandma's old Ukulele, which she called the "'tar"

 Warming her auntie's heart with the fascination of playing a guitar or Uke

 Where's the puppy?

 Daddy's coming!

Piglet and True nose to nose!

A September Sunset

Yes, I know it's November, but I was flipping through pictures tonight and came across this picture I took back in September, and thought it was so pretty.  Kristi and I were driving home from a photo shoot when we saw this by the lake by Napoleon.  Since I actually had my camera with, I just had to stop and snap a few shots. Hope you enjoy it too.
