My sweet baby girl will be turning 5 months tomorrow, so I thought I would take some photos to show how much she has grown. And what better way to do that other than in little baby cupid wings? She makes the cutest baby cupid in the world, if I say so myself :)

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!!!
This past Christmas I had a chance to take a few family portraits for our family's big reunion. Here are just a few I wanted to share.
My baby girl is growing so fast. Today I took her 3 months Christmas portraits. She's so much bigger than when she was born! She is such a happy baby, too, and shows her personality already.
Merry Christmas, everyone!

Merry Christmas, everyone!

My sweet baby girl is already 1 month old. Here are just a few of her 1 month portraits.
My new baby girl was born yesterday, September 15th, 2011. Her name is Margarita Eliana, and we are simply in love!

My sweet baby boy turned 2 years old today. He is growing up so fast, I can hardly believe it. He has such a fun personality - loving, sweet, and kind, but prefers to hide his beautiful smiles whenever I get out the camera :) He's hardly a baby anymore, in fact, every time I try to refer to him as a baby, he corrects me, saying: "I'm a big boy, mommy, not a baby!" I love you, my little one! Happy Birthday!

Here are a few photos of the kids from our walk around Yale.

My cousin and her family are visiting us from Russia this month, so we are trying to make the best of our time together by visiting a lot of fun places and taking a lot of pictures, of course. Today we went to a local zoo here, where all the kids enjoying playing together, looking at all the animals, feeding the goats, chasing the peacocks, and just generally having fun. Here are but a handful of photos from our fun day.
After a particularly cold, snowy, and long winter, I am so happy to embrace spring. I thought it would never arrive. But it did, with all of its attributes - hot weather and bugs, rain showers and thunderstorms, spring blossoms and promises of summer not-to-far-around-the-corner. I love photographing all kinds of flowers, so today I wanted to share with all of you some of the photos that I got in the past week or so of the beautiful spring blooms around our house (inside and outside). I wish I would have gotten some photos of magnolias and wisteria, but since we don't have either of those on our property, I didn't get around to it. But both of those are truly magnificent in color and splendor in the spring. After colorful New England fall, I think the blooming season in the spring is my second favorite season here.
Enjoy!

I can hardly believe it, but it's been exactly 5 years (as of yesterday) as I became a mom and welcomed home a sweet little boy Edward! We are now celebrating his 5th birthday and looking forward to so many more. You are so precious to me, dear little one and I love you!

I wanted to share with you just a couple of my favorite photos of my 2 little boys (well, primarily Edward, because Connor is so squirmy and runs everywhere, it's hard to get an actual portrait of him :) Edward was a train conductor this past Halloween and Connor was the Pooh Bear :)
I realized that I have not posted any photos from the mini-photoshoot I did with my family last fall. We went to the Lock 12 Historical park in Cheshire, which is a part of the Farmington Canal Linear Park. This park has a restored 150 year old canal lock (one of the original Farmington Canal’s locks), which is really cool - Edward really loved looking at it and figuring out how it works (he even tried to push it to see if he could close it :) Here are just a couple of my favorite shots from that session.

Rob and Leona had a beautiful wedding on a breezy spring day in Mystic. I was honored to be one of Leona's bridesmaids, so I didn't get too many photos of the wedding this time, since I had to be in a lot of them :) But these are a few that I got, so enjoy!
Rob and Leona, congratulations again, and have fun on your honeymoon in Cancun!

It seems like it was yesterday that I photographed Jackie and Katie when Jackie was just a newborn. Well, look at her now - a real princess!
