Bluebonnets 2017

It's an unspoken tradition here in Austin to get yearly photos of one's children amidst the beautiful spring Bluebonnets. This year marked Eloise's first time participating in the photo shoot!

It proved to be a challenge for a couple of reasons. First, Eloise full on entered another big perceptual LEAP and has been extra fussy and clingy lately- stranger and separation anxiety have been FULL ON for the past week. Secondly, Eloise had had a very short nap that morning, and it was dangerously close to her next nap time when we went to take photos. This resulted in a pretty fussy baby during our shoot. She did NOT want Iyla touching her, she did NOT want Mama leaving her sitting alone in the flowers..... she did NOT want much of anything to do with the session!

So: here is the evolution in photo format. I still managed to get some cute shots (thankfully!)

This one is CLASSIC

I decided to try a few of Iyla alone, who was all too happy to do her Moana movie character impersonations.

 The crab

 And Moana herself


Until next year, when hopefully we'll have better rested kiddos!
