I can’t believe it was almost a year ago that I met Christine and Sam at Norfolk Botanical Gardens for their maternity session! I hope you blog readers are getting to enjoy watching these little ones grow up in front of your eyes as much as I am! Jacob is at SUCH a fun age at 10 months, he was so full of personality and definitely let us know what he was thinking! We’ve got one more session with Jacob to celebrate his first birthday, and his sessions just keep getting better and better! 
part of being almost one is learning to stand on your own two feet! well, with mom and dad right there to hang on to just incase ;0) 
Jacob was trying to hard to take those couple steps on his own, and I understand in the last week he has managed to get the hang of it! so crazy! :0) 
this next series is my favorite, and all these images were taken within a minute of each other. I love how you can tell in each picture exactly what he’s thinking: “uuuh Dad are you SURE about this walking thing? You sure you don’t wanna just carry me?” 
“HEY MOM! come back here! i needed that hand!” 
“heeeey wasn’t there a finger there for me to hold onto just a second ago?!?? dad WHAT are you doing over there?!” 
“now thats more like it!” ;0) 
isn’t he precious?! 
looove this one :0) 
Christine swears that Jacob prefers Sam to her any day, so I’m hoping these next few pictures will convince her that Jacob’s pretty fond of her too ;0) 
oh goodness gracious be still my heart! this is the kind of moment I see and for the millionth time am reminded how much I can’t WAIT to be a mom! 
it took Jacob a little while to warm up to the balloons, but by the end of the session he was loving them! 
I l-o-v-e his expression! ha! 
these are some of my favorite shots I’ve gotten of the three of them together over the last year :0) 
haha apparently Jacob had a really hard day.. or is still learning how to play peek-a-boo ;0) 
there we go! :0) 
Happy Friday!! :0)
