I love photography and photographing my kiddos is a favorite of mine!
One afternoon, we set out on an adventure to capture the three littles beachside....
five years old is the perfect age....this little one was all things fun and beautiful to capture!
Maybe little sister needed to be photographed too....and maybe her mother forgot the right attire, gasp, but all was well - we just went with it and savored the moment for memories.
Chapman is all about the "cheese-grin" these days....
Maddox was not 100% in for this event....she kept "itching" with a bite on her leg and then on her arm....
so maybe she was told that she could visit the $5 Target aisle if she would just get a pic or two!
And while Maddox was trying to figure out her feelings on photos, Maryn was all about the camera! She was shouting, "Hey! Over here! Get me smiling this way!"
The hand on the hip is a favorite of mine....
and the tongue??? Goodness!
She loves her dress and says she is a princess each and every time she is given an opportunity to wear it!
This little one is a light in all of our lives.
I couldn't help but think just how much this little one has grown in just one year!
She is most always dancing or hopping or skipping....
or twirling....she is a light to all of us and we are thankful for our Maryn!
The cheese-grin....she is just precious!
Chapman is by far the busiest child we have ever parented....
we are thankful for this thumb....it slows her down just long enough for us to get some good snuggle time with her!
One year ago, Maryn took on a new role in her life - the role of big sister.
She was not so sure about this new place in her life for quite some time....
in fact, she often would ask, "can we just take her back to China tomorrow?"
How times have changed! Now, Maryn will say, "Mommy, can we get another baby just like Chapman? She is just so cute!" Full circle, friends.
Meanwhile, Maddox decided Target shopping sounded good so she posed a few good poses....
and smiled her gorgeous smile....
and then Chapman took over once again!
to capture this little's full personality behind a lense is nearly impossible....she is just so funny and silly...
and she just laughs when others laugh or laughs because she finds herself funny....
or she stops for a moment of reflection....
and then she continues on, silly and all, trying to place grass over her eyes???
And we end with this sweet Maddox Ren.
How did we ever get so lucky to have these three littles in our lives?
