Happy Mother’s Day…3 weeks ago!

How long ago was Mother’s Day?!
I’m just now getting to some of the pictures from our Texas trip which happened to fall during Mother’s Day weekend.
Please TELL me, I’m not the only one who occasionally matches their children?!
I sometimes get them dressed in the color I’m going to wear or vice versa.
I really wanted pictures of my kids and loved the way these turned out!
{I don’t mean this one, I’m very aware of the shadows :), but at least I got 1 with them}
On me: shrug-White House Black Market, rosette top-Down East Basics, skirt-fashion show boutique, shoes-Joey O
Can you tell I’m almost melting?! Me + humidity don’t mix well.
I’m not even close to being a beginner photographer, but I LOVE looking at simple as that for photo tips and these quick tips totally helped get some cute ones of my kids and their personalities and not the fake-cheese-when are we going to be done pictures?!
On cowboy-pants, shirt, vest-Children’s Place {under $20 because I waited until the last minute, not on purpose}
On Little Miss L-shoes-Old Navy, dress-Gap {40% off and under $20}, headband-Lyndi Lou
I’m so glad I was able to catch my son in his true element, being too smart for his own good at 4 1/2 and loving life while we were talking about Jake and the Neverland Pirates.
Then there’s Little Miss L in her serious, pretty princess state.
I love these kids!
And one more for a close up of the skirt and shoes. Doesn’t every girl need a pair of black stilettos with a bow? They’re comfortable too, I would know since we were taking pictures by a pond and I was chasing a fearless little girl!

    Cute outfit! I love your skirt! Your photos are fabulous. I need to work on my photography so that I can take good shots. Humidity and I don’t mix either. My hair goes completely flat and I just look horrid.

    Your blog is super cute! I found you via Harpers Happenings
