A gem of a baby

Introducing little baby "R".  After a rocky start mama's arms gently rocked her to sleep (which made for a more willing subject).  And then the sun burst through the clouds and it was all good.  I just love the tiny hands and feet.  Lucky parents.  She is quite a gem.

FALL

So many photos, so little time.  It's been a while since I've blogged.  I have been doing a bunch of portraits for holiday cards and I'm swamped with all of the post-processing.  

I did manage to squeeze in some shots of my kids when it was unseasonably warm recently (unlike today!)  

Our Maple tree in the back yard has finally dropped all of it's leaves and the kids are having so much fun raking and jumping in them.  It's always one of my favorite times of year.  And the photo-ops are endless...
