These will have to do

**sigh** I really wanted to get a shot with BOTH boys in it, but that's just too much to ask right now. Everytime I would put them together, A would either try and bop N on the head, or N would cry because he was uncomfortable. It was just NOT working, so I decided to snap a few individual shots so I could keep my sanity. I used props of course. Thank GOD for the Target $1 spot, it's terrific. I got this lollipop and bear there, one for each boy. The pink background is a blanket I found on a great clearance at Pier 1.

The lighting changed and I grabbed a few of N. He was So squirmy!


All shots taken with the 85mm, but all different settings.

Oh... to answer your question on my blog, the font is called "The King and Queen's font". I believe I got it from 1001fonts.com for free. :c) And THANK YOU for always leaving me such sweet comments! You made my day!

The 3rd picture makes me laugh. It's like he's trying to inhale that lollipop. too cute! It's doubtful I will attempt to do V'day shots. I think yours turned out great!
