What better way to spend a drizzly afternoon than in a cozy living room with a bunch of fun and goofy kids?!  I had so much fun with this family recently – these kids had me laughing hysterically the whole time with all their crazy antics.  After some great family portraits in some chilly overcast weather, we headed inside to relax.  Grace promptly changed into her best princess costume, which is something I think we should all do more often.  Aidan turned on some great Irish tunes and showed me his amazing dancing.  And after Ian & Kellan, the twin boys, had their dinner, they cast off their shirts, as babies love to do, and turned on the charm!  And seriously, just try to resist those adorable chubby smiles

These two little guys look soooo alike – I don’t know how their parents tell them apart – I sure can’t!

This post is all about babies – and not only that, but a couple of the cutest babies Capitol Hill has to offer!  In preparation for an upcoming exhibit of photos of ‘kids on the hill,’ I recently photographed these two adorable girls.  Lindsey is about 6 months and came to my studio bright and early one more for a little giggling and hat-wearing.  The hat with the little ears was made by SugarB Baby – check it out!

And sweet little Ava was only 6 days old in these photos!  She was so precious I could hardly stand it!!  Newborns are so fascinating.  They do so little and yet you can’t help but just stand and watch and ooh and ahh at every little movement and expression.

Little Evan has grown so big!  I had such a nice time with him and his parents last year, when Evan was just 8 months.  And this year, I got to meet his extended family too! Evan is so full of energy and curiosity and excitement – we were all so entertained by him all morning!
