peace and much love ♥ anya

We had the pleasure of having dinner with some wonderful Wisconsin doc’s this past week… Their home was a kid paradise…with none other than a pony and a beautiful horse! Annika was insistent that she be able to hop on the pony. Mommy was insistent (of course) that she get some pictures. Mommy was also thrilled to discover that young child on pony = no running away from photos. YAY!

This pose was all Annika’s idea …

I have been photographing this wee one since she was in her mama’s belly and I have loved every minute of it! We had the best time playing last weekend. She rocked my world on both cake eating AND tutu wearing

peace and much love ♥ anya

Wittle tiny man from Friday. He is an early bird as he wasn’t due to hatch for 4 more weeks!

I am bone tired from a weekend of trying to heal our wounded doggie. She had surgery two weeks ago, developed a very bad complication, was on the verge of us having to put her down on Friday evening , but now seems to be a bit on the mend. Fingers crossed!!! I will try to post photos of her and the kids very soon. First the cute baby….I get to spend tomorrow with another wittle early bird too…YAY!

A few more of baby ella and her awesome family. I have been dying to do an image of a daddy with a tattoo and his baby. This daddy has a rockin’ tattoo and loves his little baby girl to pieces I have to give a HUGE shout out to my AWESOME dad’s who have bravely bared their chests for me to photograph them with their wee loves. There is honestly nothing that melts any mama’s heart more than seeing her man loving their baby.
