18 Month Picutres

Well, I realized today that I completely forgot to post our pictures from our 18 month photo shoot!  The girls were gifted the 18 month photo shoot from their Grammy and Pop Pop for Easter.  We used Erin Morris Photography again and she did a fantastic job, just like always! 

I requested to do outdoor photos this time since all of our other ones had been inside so Erin had us meet her at a local park.  Grammy and Pop Pop also came along to help and it was definitely needed with two toddlers running around!  To get the best light we did the photos at 6pm but that meant the girls were hungry and tired.  I let them nap as long as possible that day and fed them a large snack before but it of course didn't help.  Erin was more than patient with them and still got some great shots of the girls!

Their shirts were custom made by my sweet friend Jaime.  She has the cutest Etsy shop        called Sweet Peony Boutique and makes the sweetest little shirts for kids.  She can custom make anything!

This is about the time that they started getting antsy.  Noelle is in the darker dress and Natalie is in the lighter dress.

 

Overall I wish they had been a little more cooperative but I can't blame them since it was past dinner time and almost bedtime.  Erin got some great pictures as always!

12 Month Professional Pictures

And to follow up from my attempt at getting their 12 month pictures, here are their professional pictures!  They turned out much better than my pictures and they were the last ones in our Watch Me Grow package.  If you want to see the others you can find them here: Newborn, 4 month, 6 month, 9 month.  It was our last photo shoot with Erin Morris Photography and I am really going to miss taking them for their pictures!  I loved all of the photo shoots but I think this last one was the best, especially the cake smash!

9 month professional pictures!!

The girls had their 9 month professional pictures over Thanksgiving break and I just got them back last week!  They turned out pretty good which was surprising since the girls DID NOT cooperate at the photo shoot!  It was right in the middle of the day, which should've been perfect...in between naps, in between bottles, their normal happy playtime! Nope...they cried, refused to smile, even became clingy which they had never done before and haven't done since!  I was positive it was a fail but she was still able to get some good pictures of them!

I think Noelle was actually crying in this photo but it kind of looks like a smile...

Our next and last set of pictures is for their one year birthday (don't mind me bawling my eyes out over here) and it includes a cake smash!  I hope and pray that they are more cooperative and give us awesome pictures for the last one!
