A couple of weekends ago, Rich and I were able to babysit for Tim and Steph while they went on a romantic getaway for their 5 year anniversary. While holding down the fort with Reece and Evan, Rich managed to utilize the incredible morning light at the house and get some priceless pictures of the kids. They aren’t lacking in personality, and they are ALL BOY!!! Hard to keep up with and very adventurous!
The funniest memory from the weekend was when Evan walked sleepily into the bedroom at about midnight and stood by the bed until Rich was awake enough to remember that we were in fact babysitting, and that there was in fact a kiddo wanting up on the bed with us! Once on the bed between us, Evan fell asleep and spent the rest of the night cuddling with me, snoring, and gritting his teeth. It was a temporary inauguration into motherhood, complete with sleep deprivation!!!
Here are the fun shots from the weekend!
This is Reece, with his beloved animal crackers!
Reece, watching Dumbo! They were transfixed by the movie!
Evan laughing at Dumbo…
Playtime on Saturday morning…
Evan’s sleeping position of choice… how cute is this???
Saturday afternoon playtime in the backyard!!! Stomping on the “rocket launching” thing! And check out these hats!
This is one of my absolute favorites of Evan, hanging out in the swing!
I got to push Reece for a while, and He kept wanting to go “higher, higher!”
Happy Anniversary, Tim and Steph, and enjoy the awesome pictures Rich captured of your precious little men! We love you guys!
Seriously incredible! I am amazed at the focus you achieved on the swing shots!
You guys are great! The pictures are outstanding, Richard! It is time for you to switch jobs.
Thank you for still being our friends after a day and a half with our boys. Can’t wait to babysit for you guys!!!!!

Once again, awesome pics Rich. It looks like you guys had fun!
Okay, I am getting back into my wedding dress (and Jonathan in his mess dress) and we are re-shooting our wedding. They are great Rich. I cannot wait for you to start going all out with it and making it more than a hobby. Let us know what camera stuff to look for as presents…you b-day isn’t THAT far away. Love you.
what photogenic kiddos! i love the sleeping pic…and the big smile hanging on the swing. so, what do you guys think?? (on parenthood, that is?)
The pictures are incredibly beautiful! Thanks for sharing them and for making it possible for Steph and Tim to get away.
Hey guys! Awesome pictures…once again. I have two questions for Rich. (or if you know, Heather) #1: What camera do you use and B. Do you use a dif. lens on the pics that are darker in the corners? (Julie and I have done a few weddings with our Dad’s dig. EOS 30 D)
Yes I need to know what kind of camera you use too! I want to take pictures like that. Those are beautiful!
The one of Evan hangin’ out on the swing is PRICELESS!!!! WOW!!!!
