Weekend of the Twins (Alpharetta Newborn/Children's Photography)

The weekend started off with twin newborn boys! (well, they weren't extremely newborn anymore- already close to 10 pounds having been born premature a couple months before!  Actually, the weekend we had the maternity session planned, that's when the little guys decided to make an appearance!

I figured since I usually try to keep babies warm with heating pads and space heaters inside, 95 degrees in the shade weather outside would work perfectly to keep those babies content!

Any guesses where mom and dad went to school?


Brother #1: Getting sleepy/content :)


Brother #2: Just chillin'


Hanging out in the faux fur:




Then came the adorable owl hats!




I couldn't leave without getting some of the cute nursery details:


The next day- more twins! An adorable boy/girl duo this time- and no longer sleepy little babies, but active, fun 2 year olds!

Quick family pics before it was off to the races:


Yes, to answer that question- getting two two-year olds in one place/facing one direction is like herding cats :)


When they are this age, it works best to run around after them than try to get them to stay still:




So sweet!


You follow them around long enough, you're likely to capture some sweet moments!




After the weekend of the twins, I went home to my two kids (over three years apart) and wondered why I thought one at a time was so hard! :)

Mia is 2! (Alpharetta Children's Photography)

I've been lucky to take little Mia's pictures since she was a newborn! She had a lot of hair even then!



Last year for her 1st birthday, she was standing and relatively stationary:



Now she and big bro are growing up, her hair was a lot longer than a year ago and the biggest difference- she ran- and fast! Here was one of the famiy pics at the beginning when she was willing to sit for a second or two:



After that, there was really no standing still for long- there's definitely no need for a workout when you're running all over the grounds of Bulloch Hall after a two year old!



The little gardeners:




On the go...



She wasn't the only one on the go- big brother actually ran towards me rather than away :)







A moment of rest:





A sweet end to a busy girl's day. They really grow up fast and I cherish these moments I can spend with the little ones, even when they keep me on my toes (and keep me running!)  The great thing is, this is Mia at 2- not really posed, but letting them run around and running after them, you get to see kids as they are at their age, and I love that.
