This A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E little girl certainly has the personality to win over anyone who meets her…Abigail is not only cute as a button, but a smart little one as well…the things she says (and let me tell you, she talks a LOT!)…will amaze you and entertain you…and today is special because she is turning TWO!!! She’s been on the blog before and I’m thrilled to have had the opportunity to do her two year pictures for her! It hardly seems possible that it’s been two years since she was born and I remember the day she entered the world…although she entered it in Tennessee, where her parents are from and the rest of their family lives…so sadly, I didn’t have the opportunity to do her newborn photos. Over the past year and a half, I’ve visited out there (we used to live in Tennessee!!!) and her grandparents are very dear friends of ours…so I’ve been lucky enough to occasionally get my “hands” on her for some photos. As luck would have it…her dad got a new job…in Seattle and they now live in OUR town…how fortunate am I!! Not only do I get to regularly photograph Abigail, but I love spending time with she and her parents…they are like family to us and in my opinion, the “more the merrier!” Oh, and did I mention that she will be a big sister this summer…SO exciting!!  It seemed fitting that her post go up today, in her honor and as a gift to her grandparents and other family who are not able to see her as often as they’d like (although she’s heading out there SOON to see all of them!)…so Happy 2nd Birthday Abigail…you are a sweetheart – as are your parents!! Here’s to a wonderful day filled with love, giggles, cupcakes and everything else you can imagine (and with her…that is a LOT!!)

LOVE this photo…she has so much personality and it shines through all the time!!

That smile and those eyes…they are priceless and amazing!

Time never seems to slow down and a new month has arrived! March…which should bring hopes as spring will begin this month. It seems we are usually eager for a new season about this time of year – ready for some color to brighten our surroundings, more daylight each day and hopes for some warmer temperatures. Living in the Pacific Northwest, that’s not always the case, although there might be signs of new growth and quite possibly some early flowers starting to bloom by the end of the month, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that it’ll be warmer or even dry…we never know what we’ll get in the next month…or maybe even two months…winter could still show up, as it is threatening for tomorrow morning! Since we have no control over the weather, we just have to embrace “whatever” the weather is and make the best of it…and find some news ways to make the best of the time and for me that means finding something new, different and unique to photograph until we see new “life” shining through in the spring. This week I look aROUND the house and was amazed at all of the round shapes there were. Now, I could have included even more, but you get the idea…it’s everywhere…literally, every room in our home, I stepped in and quickly found circles, whether it was light switches, sinks, door knobs, clocks or even our Keurig coffee cups…they were everywhere…inside and out! Look around, pick another shape, if you’d like and just see where you can find it…it definitely makes you start looking at things differently than you typically do!

The last photo is part of a collage I received from my kids a couple of years ago…love seeing my kids every day in this photo and since there was an “O” in the photo, I had to include it this week!!

Here’s to a wonderful week ahead for everyone…make the most out of each day because you have no idea what life has in store for you…live life to the FULLEST!!
