The Bitz Family

August 23, 2010

When I moved to Great Falls, my best friend Mia introduced me to Holly.  Seven years later, there’s a husband, daughter Emma and baby Ava in the picture.  And what a sweet picture they are…

Emma kept saying: “Hey Cindy…watch how fast I can run!  Are you fast like me?”

I’m not as fast.  But I managed to catch up and get her sweet smiles + yummy freckles.

It always cracks me up when babies get kissed by their big sister or brother.  It’s more like a choke hold!

Baxter followed us around everywhere.  Chased some deer.  Then sat around and made sure everyone was OK.  :-D

This is why I adore Montana.  Wade took a quick spin on his combine in between photos.  After all, it’s a super busy time for wheat farmers!

Thank you Wade for workin’ the farm AND workin’ it for the photo shoot.  That’s a REAL man right there, folks.

Emma was VERY proud of her dad’s wheat.

Emma MADE sure we also took plenty of photos in her pink bedroom.  And with her precious “Lamby.”

What a sweet lil’ soul.  She loves wrapping up her stuffed animal babies.  :-D

Ava’s room was equally as girly + plain’ old SWEET!  And Ava couldn’t be any cuter.  That tummy…

Those chubby legs.  She’ll be running around like her big sister before we know it!

And that double chin!  What a scrumptious baby.

Just one more

June 5, 2010

After last night’s shoot wrapped up, the kids kept saying that their legs were sooooo tired as we walked back to our cars.  That’s when I asked Isis for “just one more” quick smile.
