Driving to St. Augustine for this adventure, I just kept hoping that the rain would hold off and the wind would subside.  The rain did stay away however the wind did not let up. But with Miss “M” and her mommy, Holly I knew this was going to be fun. I got to the condo, one of the first things I saw was the little princess wearing her patriotic bikini, smiling and having the best time with both her Grandmas.  We had done pictures just a couple of months before and I knew that along with those gorgeous blue eyes  was a smile that would melt your heart.

So off we went to the beach. The moment Miss “M” touched the sand I remembered what a 9 month old was all about… Wonder and exploration! Boy did she ever explore:  the sand, the water even the  grass on the dunes. She might not be crawling but I’m positive she investigated everything that was within her grasp.   With my youngest being 4 and having outgrown that stage it was a lot of fun to share that experience with this mommy and daughter. Holly joked that we would have a ton of pictures of the top of Miss “M”s head, she was right… Each stage of a child’s life is so precious, documenting those times for my children and for others makes it all worthwhile.

Hugs, Shannon

This is the first of several sessions that I wanted to share. I had the chance to catch up with Kellie and photograph her adorable little boy, “J”.  He is a sweet little boy, he had so much fun looking at the cows and the fish, just being a little boy. I will admit I caught him checking out two of my little princesses, the little man does have good taste. He probably was just hoping they’d pull him in the wagon :)  We did discover that he didn’t like the cowboy hat, he wanted to use it as a frisbee… LOL

Thanks Kellie for letting me spend some time with the both of you, can’t wait to meet your new little man in a few months. HUGS…
