“had to crawl before you walked
before you ran
before I knew it
you were trying to free your fingers from my hand
‘cause you could do it on your own now somehow
slow down…”
– nichole nordeman
this little girl is my sweet “niece” kate, and i’m in complete disbelief that she’s as grown as she is! the last time you saw her on the blog she was about 10 months old, and now look how grown she is! AND, she’s about to become a big sister in April! 
love that sweet giggle :)
little girl is wanting to do everything on her own these days, hence her refusal to hold either of their hands in the photo on the left… who told her that she was completely grown?! ;) 
one of my favorites!
the journey to “motherhood” wasn’t an easy one for this beautiful friend of mine, but WHEW it looks so good on her now! can’t you see it in beth’s smiles here how much joy she gets from being kate’s mama? 
you slay me, little girl… 
kate has a “baby brother” in her belly too! ;) if by ‘baby brother’ you mean soccer ball! 
happy wednesday! :)
[…] ‘aunt jessie’ is one of the best things ever! he’s got the sweetest demeanor, and his big sister kate already thinks he’s pretty awesome :) look at that smile!kate had a cold the first week ryker […]
Excellent pictures! Great subjects! Great photography!!
