Kinzie Nowell Jones was born on Christmas morning at home~our very own Christmas gift from God! We had an amazing birth experience and are absolutely blessed. All my boys have been wonderful and we couldn’t be happier-exhausted but happy!!!!

I am sorry to say we just haven’t had the energy to get out props and backgrounds and lights and take some professional photos of our baby. I think Landrie was 19 days old when we finally managed to do that, and by then, of course, he was well past the sleepy newborn stage where you can pose them in all kinds of crazy ways and they’ll sleep right through it. Maybe we’ll get it done in the coming days…but for now, we just have some snapshots to share of our little man, and that will have to do!

Just a snap of my Landrie, ’cause I haven’t posted any of him in so long. Sigh. Growing up too quickly. I’m treasuring every moment with him before new baby arrives.

I can’t believe he’s two already…

My little Landrie is all boy. He loves dirt, trucks, trains, diggers, and bugs. He and Daddy found a beetle in the house in the midst of winter and it was quite the hit. Sigh. Can’t believe he’s almost TWO already. Where does the time go?

The Halloween portraits during the Little Tykes Trick-or-Treat was a huge success!  We had so much fun seeing all the kiddos in their costumes.  It was the first time we’d tried out the “choose your images before you leave” thing, and while the system could definitely be improved, it was a great way for us to streamline the process so we can get the orders done quickly.  We’re almost done with the editing, then we’ll be posting a poll on the blog (ahem, I’m sure I can figure out how to do that!) so you can all vote for the best costume.  Start stalking the blog, and get all your friends and family to vote if you had little ones photographed.

For now, here are a few of the Jones clan, who are, for obvious reasons, not eligible for the contest

My baby’s growin’ up!  We finally found time to get down to the studio to take a few photos of Landrie.  We just got back from our vacation to Coeur d’Alene yesterday, so officially I’m not working until tomorrow!   He turned 6 months on July 30.  Where does the time go?  He’s itching to crawl and walk…just wants to MOVE all the time.  As you can see he’s sitting up and has two teeth, too!  We’re very proud of our little man.
