6 Months Old/Asheville Baby Photographer

Happy 6 months baby bear!  I love you more than words!  Now stop growing!  (I’m taking more pictures this weekend but I just wanted to get a baby booty shot.  When I have an idea, I have to do it right then.  “Ryder, hold River, I’ll be right back!  I’ve got to set something up real quick!  I’ve got to take his picture right now.”  That’s kind of how this went.  My poor husband!  😉

Because I Just Love Him!/Asheville Baby Photographer

I can’t believe my baby bear is going to be 6 months old next week.  Where has the time gone?  🙁  It makes me so sad that he is getting so big so quickly.  Even Mya told me today that she will be sad when he isn’t a baby anymore.  He just gets more and more precious everyday.  He has just started sitting up so I wanted to get a picture of it, but he does fall over still at times and when he does, it’s fast and hard and usually right onto his face, so I figured I had better put him on something soft.  😉  Have you ever seen a happier baby?  Man, I’m a lucky momma!  I love you my sweet baby!

Rain, Rain, Go Away/Asheville Baby and Child Photographer

My session that I was so looking forward to got rained out today and has to be rescheduled.  Boo!  Since it wasn’t raining here, I decided that I just couldn’t let these strawberries and lemons go to waste.  I’m not sure why I love to torture myself with trying to get Mya to cooperate for pictures.  She was kind of okay about it but then had a few tantrums before we even left the house because she had decided that she didn’t want to go anymore.  I finally just said, “Forget this!”  Then there was another tantrum because she had decided that she did want to go.  Geez Louise!  The girl is killing me!  Somehow we made it to the spot that I have been wanting to go to for a while and it ended up being okay.  River was very happy to be there and then so was Mya after she realized she got to eat a jar of strawberries!

Happy 4th From the Lewis’!/Asheville Family Photographer

What a great 4th of July we had!  4th of July in N.C. is so much different than it was in New York!  In New York, it required a lot of preplanning, walking, tantrums (if you have a toddler-lol), but also the best fireworks anyone could ever imagine!  Here in Asheville, the fireworks require you to drive your car to the spot where you want to sit.  You get out with your chairs and blankets, ball, bubbles,….and you hang out in a big grassy area until the fireworks start.  The fireworks are a lot less dramatic, but the experience is so much less stressful!  So I have to say, I enjoyed being in Asheville this year for another holiday!  Hope everyone had a wonderful, relaxing day with some fabulous friends and fireworks!

Thought I would include a family photo so that future clients will know who to look for.  😉  The dark hair is gone and so is the baby bump!
