Tahoe Traditions

Every year we look forward to our family time in Tahoe, building memories and traditions with our kids. I’ve posted our vacation pictures all over the place so I figured I couldn’t leave out this site. I really loved some of the pictures from our recent trip to beautiful Lake Tahoe so I have lots to share:

This is the view from riding the gondola to the top of the mountain:

James throwing snowballs at Mommy:

Haylie LOVES playing in the snow:

Raider loves all the active things:

We even got to play in the sand by the Lake:

I’m not on this blog very often but I love this picture with my daughter:

My love:

So cold:

Olivia

It was so fun to get to meet little Olivia today. I had a great time taking pictures of her Mommy and Daddy here. And I just love meeting all the little ones of my maternity clients. Olivia just turned 6 months; she isn’t quite sitting up yet but we found some good ways to prop her up:

She didn’t really like tummy time but she liked laying on Daddy’s knees:

And of course everything is better on Mom’s shoulder:

I love this little look:

Jason and Mary Kathleen - great to see you again and so good to meet Olivia! Hope you like the pictures so far!!

Lucy Rose

This little one will most definitely have Daddy wrapped around her finger. Those big blue eyes and that adorable puppy dog look are going to work well for little Lucy Rose. Mom and Dad so obviously adore her. I always love watching parents with their first child. You can see their whole world wrapped up in their baby’s eyes! And Lucy’s eyes are so amazing they just draw you in:

I could have taken pictures of her all day. So cute!!

Lucy just turned 5 months old and she’s almost sitting up so this little log was a nice little balance for her.

Look how big, holding herself up!!

And who doesn’t love a baby in a basket??

Jennifer and Justin - I had a fun time with you yesterday and Lucy did such a great job. I have many more cute ones and will be in contact with you soon!!! Happy Valentines Day everyone!!!

Even when he was a newborn, this little guy was full of smiles for me. It’s always so fun to see Landon and his Mommy and Daddy - I just love photographing them!! We met this morning in my new little favorite spot. The light was just beautiful and Landon was as happy as ever:

He is 9 months now and almost walking. We had to get some pictures of him holding himself up:

Landon was so cute sitting in this chair. He wasn’t so sure about sitting in it the normal way but when we flipped it around - it became a very fun game! Just look at those cute little feet:

He was cracking us up, shaking the chair, kicking and swinging his legs. I have SOOO many cute shots of him in this series - and lots of him looking but I really loved these ones.

It was also fun to eat the chair!

At the very end we pulled out his frog hat from Grandma and I’m glad we did. Some of the shots with this hat on are my favorites from the day. Here is a cute one:

Ryan and Mariah - he just gets cuter every time. Thanks for letting me spend some time with your little piece of joy!!
