This one is my favorite of the day.
We were able to find a friend who does photography, which is really rare here. We decided on shooting on Margit Island a week before her due date. Come to find out, she was having contractions the morning of our photo shoot. She was IN labor taking our shots around 5pm. We told her that we can reschedule, and she said that this would keep her mind off of it, so we went through with it... the tough girl that she is. She was lugging this huge camera around and having contractions every 5-10 min and ended up having her baby that night. What a gal! She would say, "Just a min." (breathe through the contraction) "Okay, smile! Cheeese!! Look right here!" I'm amazed she got any shots at all of our family. We couldn't get any pictures of just Dylan and B bc Dylan was being difficult and uber clingy and my hair was driving me nuts, but oh well. My hair issue reminds me of The Little Mermaid's hair issue that totally bugs me every time I watch that movie. Her bangs!! They just drive me crazy.
Oh another thing... I am very much against my boys wearing pink and when I bought B's and Dylan's polos online, from 2 different stores, they looked like they had white lines. Come to find out, they were both pink. bleh. We went with it. Look at me being flexible!
Psst! Kelli is my hero...

I love all the pictures! They turned out really great, and you can't even tell the boys have pink on their shirts. My hair always drives me crazy whenever we have pictures done. Which we are today!
ReplyDeletep.s. Ariel's bangs always drive me crazy too! I love your posts Mo and I really miss you guys!
They are such cute pictures! You are so photogenic!
ReplyDeleteThose pictures are absolutely gorgeous! And WOW... I am super impressed with your photographer!
ReplyDeleteWell...you can't tell that there is pink in those shirts. So nice work anyway!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, gorgeous pictures. You and your family are so cute. Can't get over it.
And I am so impressed with Kelli. WOW!
Oh, your family is beautiful!! Such great pics - making me feel like time has really flown by, since I'm remembering you as one of the little ones. Sigh. Love it!
ReplyDeleteLove these - did Kelli take them? She is an amazing photographer.
ReplyDeleteYou guys look hot. Also I put my boys in pink whenever I can.
Sorry, Monique. I think all those photos look AMAZING! You have the most amazing smile that just makes me want to smile back (not helpful that I'm over an ocean- just know I'm smiling back at you). :-D And I agree with the dislike of the Little Mermaid's bangs, but yours are nearly as scary. I love love love those photos (my fav is the one with all you standing). Gorgeous family! :-)
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! I can't even imagine being in labor while doing a photo shoot--that is hard-core photography!
ReplyDeleteYou look great in these--we're always our own worst critic! These are fantastic.
Those pictures turned out SO good! I don't know what you are talking about. You look gorgeous in all of them, bangs and all. (I really like the bangs, actually) What an adorable family you have!
ReplyDeleteCute family! I love the candid shots.
ReplyDeleteLove! Love! Love! The pics. I think your hair looks great and I never would have known their shirts were pink stripes instead of white stripes. Oh how I miss my Chapman cousins!!
ReplyDeleteCute family pictures. You guys are so cute. And your kids are so grown up looking. Photographer did a great job.
ReplyDeleteYour family pics turned out great. The ones of the girls are cute, but I LOVE the ones of Dylan- his smile is adorable.
