BRADY...BRETT...ETHAN (Botanical Gardens)

Before Mel got ready to return to the cold that was in Minnesota, we decided to meet for a few last photos of the boys. The morning could not have been any more beautiful. We went to the Savannah Botanical Gardens and although the boys were not that interested in the blooming flowers, they did find things to entertain them. Brady found this really cool trellis and although it had flowers running up it with thorns everywhere, he didn't let that stop him from climbing it.



Mel was warning Brady of the sharp thorns here...as you can see by the look on his face that made him want to climb it more. ha ha.


Please Mommy..pleasssseeeee. How can you refuse that face ;)


YESSSSSSSS!




Mel brought an extra shirt for Brady and I am so glad we got some photos with him in it. I loved the way the light canary yellow color complimented his skin tone and his hair.




I do not remember what Ethan was pointing at, but it seems Brady was excited about it.




I do remember here...Ethan was pointing at his mommy. I think he meant he was done with pictures for awhile. His expression kinda says it all.


I love this photo of Brett because he seems so disinterested in me and my camera. He almost looks bored here....ha.ha. But he quickly perked up as Mel got behind me to entertain, I was able to get some really cute shots with her help. Nothing like a mommy acting silly to make the kids laugh.





I love how big his eyes are here...WOW!


And this expression simply says to me..."yea I know I am too cute, thats right"....ha.ha.


Ethan was so excited about this water fountain. Touching the water would make him laugh and laugh. It was very funny watching him.


What one twin gets to experience the other one does too. I love how Brett was leaning in at first and letting the water gently splash on his face. His eyes were closed and he seemed at such peace. We should all take note from this kid and let the water dance on our face once in awhile.


This was hysterical...Brady was blowing on this and as you can see he was disappointed that nothing happened.


I did manage to get a photo of the three of them...however they refused to sit, everyone wanted to stand. That was ok, at least they were all in the same area at the same time, which rarely happens.


Mel's mom came out to help with the kids...THANK YOU MsBETTY! You were such a big help and made it possible for me to snap all the photos in about 45 min. Mel & her Mom had a big day planned at the mall to go shopping, so this was a wonderful way to start off and get the kids some fresh air.

Well, hope everyone enjoyed seeing the pics of Brady, Brett and Ethan. I look forward to documenting more of their personalities and expressions as they grow.

Have a blessed day~©

Hey Jen...THANK YOU for your wonderful and sweet comments. That was very kind of you. I wish I could take credit for these ADORABLE little boys, but they ALL 3 belong to my good friend Melissa. She was in town for a week and I did a three part shoot for her. Thanks for the laughs this am...However, "My baby" is the 6 lb Yorkie on the banner of my BLOG. He is much less time consuming, not sure if he is less demanding...and he is probably more spoiled than most kids...ha.ha. seriously, spoiled rotten! well, congrats on your girls. I am sure they are beautiful and lucky to have you as a Mom. *I will email you the info for making your blog photos bigger. Hope you stop back by here from time to time ;) great to meet U.
