Are you impressed? You should be. We braved family pictures with 3 month old colicky twins, and surprisingly ended up with some great shots! We even got a few without anyone crying. I give all credit to my very talented SIL, Alisha, she did a fantastic job.
I thought by adding the twins to our family photos it would help fill that gaping hole where Preslee belongs, but to my surprise, it’s still there, and as big as ever. I actually first noticed it with our family photo at the twins’ blessing {here} So we made sure to incorporate her throughout the night. These first two photos are by far our favorite, and as you can see, little brother was thrilled to be the one holding “Pres.”
For all you newbies, we planted this tree after Preslee passed away, read more {here}. We decided to make this a tradition {here}, to show how much it grows throughout the years.
I smiled when Alisha threw some of these in, she wanted us to have something to laugh at down the road. I actually love them, it’s a little glimpse of all the crying we’ve had to endure these past few months.
Thanks again Alisha, all you who live Utah and SE Idaho check out Alisha’s work, she’s amazing and specializes in weddings! {here}
Such fabulous photos and I so love candid shots - they show real life, don't they?

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful family you have! I absolutely love how you incorporate Preslee into the pictures! And lets be honest- no one goes thru family pictures without melt downs and crying right? Most the time I'm just glad they don't capture ME, the mom, doing it.

ReplyDeleteI have been following your blog for awhile so sweet. Have you heard about Merlin Magic Sleeping suit. Its $39.99 and has a money back offer. My daughter bought it for her little boy and within 2 minutes that baby is fast asleep at 3 months for 10-12 hours. Also 2-3 hour naps during the day. If I had not seen this for myself I would of never believed it. Good Luck, your family is darling Nadine Ochs, Tallahassee, Florida
