my baby's 1st day at MDO

My baby, well not-so baby anymore, Brogan had his first day of Mother's Day Out today! He was excited to see his lunch box being packed, and was happily out the door...



Daddy got to go with us to drop him off for the first day...



And then we went inside...and told him goodbye...and he screamed and screamed...poor baby...



On a much happier morning, Brogan got his very own photo shoot in our front yard one Sunday after church. He looked so handsome in his Sunday best (thanks Grammie & Mimi) that I just had to snap some pictures of him. Here's my cutie...









And doing 2 of his favorite things. Basketball...





And riding the scooter...





Only 2 hours and 28 minutes until I get to go pick him up from his first day! I can't wait to give him a big hug!!!

another small world with the williams

What in the world?!?! I was meeting this lovely family from Austin for the first time...I thought. When J Williams introduced himself to me, I instantly remembered him...from 2nd grade!!! During his very short time living in Katy as a young child, he happened to be in my second grade class! What are the chances?!!! So, it was great meeting his wife and two beautiful children for the first time, and seeing him again after all these years! Enjoy their super-fun pictures...











These two are clearly still in love...



And the funny shot to go with the kissing one above...they had 2 little snugglers that didn't want to let go of them...



Mommy with her little ones...







Daddy taking his baby girl for a spin...



Like Daddy, Like Son...



These two kiddos were so angelic! Photographing them was very easy!...







Darling Grace is 5 years old, and she is such a beauty...







Mr. Sam is 3 years old, and has some gorgeous eyes...







Thank you so much, Williams family, for having fun with me on the beach! J, it was great to see you again, and I still cannot believe what a small world this is! Hope to see you guys again soon...

the many miller cousins

I've known most of these little Millers for a long, long time. I've babysat for 2 of them about 6 years ago, I was actually at the hospital when one of them was born, and I've seen the others from time to time. Poor kiddos, all had to be woken up at the crack-of-dawn to meet me at the beach for a photo shoot...I'm sure glad they did!!!...











Carson, the oldest cousin, is 9 years old and will start the 3rd grade soon...





Reade, Carson's younger sister, is 7 years old and will be in the 1st grade this year...





No sibling rivalry here...





J.T. is a big 4 year old that is ready for preschool to start...





And J.T.'s adorable, little sister, Rylee, is 22 months old...







Look at what a great job J.T. did of trying to get a picture with his sister for us..







This cutie is Aubrey, and she is 3 1/2 years old...







And last-but-not-least, precious Toxey Claire is a mere 6 weeks old...











And I just had to post some of these pictures of Miss Rylee crying. We were so mean to take her paci away for the photo shoot. Poor baby!...





Finally, the kiddos could run and jump in the water! They were eager to splash and play. It was fun to watch them all play together...















Thank you so much to all of you for meeting me super-early at the beach! I know it was hard on the mommies getting everyone up and ready! It was great to see so many old friends and a pleasure meeting some of you that I had not yet met! Hope to see all of you again soon!
