In March, when the wind was still a bit chilly and spring was just entering in, we photographed these two sweet sisters. A couple years ago we did a session with big sister Lily, and it was a treat to now meet her new little sister, Lyla, who’s nine months.

We walked around the park while Lily loved on Lyla, and we all searched for early spring flowers. We observed buds on the trees ready to soon bloom, and then Lyla got the biggest giggles while sitting in a giant pile of leaves.

What sweethearts!

I was reminded as I went back and looked over our sweet niece’s newborn and then one year photos, time is passing quickly. Lilah is a fully active two years old now, and she surely keeps her parents on their toes—just as she has done since her intense 4-day entrance into this world! These days Lilah is talking, and running, and climbing EVERYTHING, and pointing, and pretty much letting you know exactly what she wants in this life. Some things she loves: eating fruit, old classic movies, her cousin Ri-Ri, playing outside, and Moses from the bible (she points to men at the grocery and says, “Moses!!”) My sis, Ashley, has to work to keep up with her, as she is only a few weeks away from having baby #2. Yes, Lilah doesn’t realize it fully, but she’s on the brink of having to share her awesome world. ;)

Lilah’s favorite place to be is HOME, so I figured it would be the best choice for this session. I followed her around as she showed me her games, how she hides in the kitchen curtains, and then we played “chase each other around the house,” one of her favorites. It was fun having time with just her…normally the cousins are the main attraction when I’m around, but I was alone this time.

One thing is for sure, we love our sweet girl so much. She is beyond precious!
