Family Photos

November 2 - In November, we had a little last minute family portrait session. I had the girls pictures taken a few weeks earlier, and loved them so much I wanted family ones in the same place. We already had pictures scheduled with my entire extended family a few weeks later, so it seemed completely crazy to get more taken. But I was starting to show already and was worried how I would look by then and I was worried it might be really bad weather and with all those people they just might not work out. I really wanted to capture our family the way it was with 3 cute little kids and before I was really pregnant, so I decided I just wanted to do it anyway. Seems silly since we were getting more in just a few weeks, I know, but I wanted to have some good pictures just in case.
So, I called my photographer. I kind of thought she would laugh at me, but she asked me if I was available that night! I had a bunch going on and was TOTALLY not prepared, but she had something in 2 days, so I booked a mini-session, since I didn't need a lot of pictures and the stress began! I had clothes for our family pictures with my extended family, but I decided I wanted to wear something different, so I had to scramble a bit to be ready. I had something to wear and just borrowed a scarf from my photographer. Avery had something to wear and Logan just borrowed a tie from the photographer. Darren borrowed a sweater from a friend and I bought Rylee a new shirt and sweater. I had to get an emergency haircut, too! It was a little crazy, but it was actually kind of nice to only stress for 2 days and then have it be over! Here is the result. I LOVE them! This one is my favorite! I love the ones she got of the kids!!!
Avery's big cheese in this one makes me laugh every time!
Another successful photo session!!! Thanks again Katie! Between these and the ones we took with my family I think we will be good for awhile. At least until our new little guy arrives!

Ha ha! You are so funny! I LOVE the pics--they really turned out good and I can't even tell that you are pregnant.
