{ family of 5 }

anyone who really knows me, and i mean really knows me — knows that the thought of being outnumbered by kids in my own family scares me!!!!!  my family is complete at 4 members, and for many reasons, we’ll remain a family of 4.  but at pretty close to the top of that list is a fear of being outnumbered by kids and the chaos i predict that would result at my house(ha — i make it sound like there isn’t chaos with 2 kids!).

well, after meeting this family of 5, my theory of chaos due to being outnumbered simply doesn’t hold true! seriously — the 2 older brothers were so insanely polite & patient of me, their little sister, each other… the Y Family had a calmness and togetherness that puts my family of 4 to shame!!!!  it was a pleasure spending time with them last Sunday afternoon and here are a few of my favorites from their session!

I love the candid and quiet nature of this family portrait…

sweet brothers and the setting sun!

and beautiful Miss M!  she had a touch of a cold, but was SUCH a trooper!!

Thank you for allowing me to share these pictures — and more sneak peaks coming soon!  I had a busy week shooting, and will have lots to share!  Up next will be a yummy newborn!!!
