Here are my son's annual Christmas photos to help wish you the

Merriest of Christmases, and the Happiest of New Years!  

I can't help but adore and share his always cheerful little face and silly antics. 

Here's his annual stocking pics as well -how could I choose just one to post, when he decided to fit both feet in it & hop around like a madman?  Did I mention I adore his silly antics??

This is the "V" family.  A few months ago, feeling a bit lonely around the house after the death of my kitty of 13 years, a year previously, I began searching for some new companionship.   I thought it would be nice to adopt two kitties together, so they had one another to play with and knowing that it was more difficult to find a home willing to take two together.  My search brought me to a recently posted Kijiji ad, showing two very sweet looking kitty companions.  I inquired, "J" responded with more photos, and even some very funny videos.  It was obvious these two were much loved, and were being given up, only for the sake of the health of her little ones. 

Through the months, we've become Facebook friends, I post photos of Sam and Bill, and send her stories about their adventures.  As a thank you for giving me her precious furballs, I had to thank her & her family in the most appropriate way for a photographer such as myself -by taking their photos.  The whole family came by for a family reunion, then we headed to the Maclaren Art Centre for the shoot -a great location by the way!

Thank you "V" family, Sam and Bill are indeed lovely and amusing little members of our family!   

Here it is, my first ever opportunity to shoot newborn twins; of course, I went into the shoot with high expectations, a mental list of all the poses I wanted to gently coddle and nestle the two sleeping bundles into.  Of course, as all little folk do, "J" & "C" had other plans; one being wanting to be awake.  That's okay, awake is good!  Of course, hunger soon takes over -can you tell above who's the hungry one?

So, we do the logical thing, and tag team the boys; while one was being fed, we took advantage of the other's wakefulness.

But of course, full tummies mean sleepy babies -but not always at the same time!

Baby "C" below liked his little feet free, free, free!

While Baby "J" was perfectly happy to be all snuggled in.

Can you guess which little Monkey's foot this is?

And finally, after over two hours and some gentle scolding -"J", stop kicking your brother! -ta, da!!  The "Money Shot"!  Finally two peaceful boys!   I did a quiet little victory cheer after I got this frame! 

Thank you "G" family; you were wonderful, relaxed, and helpful.  The patience you both displayed during our time together will doubtlessly serve you well long into the future!
