Despite appearances recently on this blog, I do have more than one child.  And I do love all five of them equally:).  I have been wanting to go out and take portraits of my two-year old in the fall colors for a while now, but with five kids, a newborn, a home to keep up, no sleep, reoccurring sore throats (see previous mention of no sleep), a husband in grad school and working full-time, and New York’s unpredictable weather, I wasn’t sure that would happen.  But it did.  Sure, it was horribly overcast and lightly sprinkling the whole time we were out, but we made it happen.  And while beautiful light is always, always desired and inspiring and takes images to that next level, there’s something to be said for cuteness in any weather.

Jack, 2 years:

Big sister #2 wanted to come along.  I wasn’t going to argue:).

Super-Jack…

…to the rescue!

Super-Bella.  Cape not required.

“Mom, mom, it’s winnee.  Mom, it’s so winnee!  It’s blowing my cape!”

And when it get too “winnee,” big sis is always there to save you.  Even super heroes need a little help sometimes.

Love you bunches.

Mom
