    t-ball for timmy

    Timmy couldn’t have been more excited to start his season of baseball this year. I think John and the boys have him way sucked in to their baseball way of life.

    Coach John getting the team ready to play. First time up at bat for the season!He got a great hit! Could he look any happier?!Jack and Patrick have been helping out at 1st and 3rd.  And doing a great job, I might add!Second up at bat. Still way smiley.Lots of Timmy’s friends are on the team, which worked out well for all of us!And the boys friend Johnny’s sister is on the team too, so the boys can play a little catch between ups. The BFF’s back together.

    happy mothers day

    Hoping all of you had a wonderful mothers day. I did. I got to sleep late, went to Hempstead for brunch with everyone (John and the boys, both sets of grandparents, and Joe & Gail and their boys) and had a lazy afternoon at home. Just wish I felt better- my allergies are awful. None of the delicious food tasted quite right at brunch cause of the allergy meds, my eyes are swollen itchy and ugly, and I kept falling asleep all afternoon/evening. Can’t wait for spring to be OVER.

    My presents: (looooove my new Coach bag. John’s batting 1000 on the pocketbooks!!) The Mets shirt, however…..

    And my gifts: Wishing all my bsquared mommies a very happy mothers day yesterday, too.

    I have no doubt you’ll recognize this beauty from her communion portrait session I posted a few weeks back. Last weekend was her actual communion and I was so glad to be asked back for more pictures of the whole family and extended family. And a little of the party, too.

    Stay tuned to the blog in the coming weeks- lots more communions to go.

    the aufi communion

    I had photographed this fantastic family about 2 years ago along with their cousins. I was so happy when mom emailed for another shoot this year, for her daughter’s communion this time! It was great seeing them all again and seeing how much they’ve grown and changed since the last shoot. They are the nicest, most cooperative bunch and made my first day back in the communion season so easy and pleasant. I took a ton of pictures cause we just flew thru them with everyone’s fantastic cooperation. Here are a few for your viewing pleasure.

    After sending in my camera and lenses to Canon for some tuning up, the focus is outstanding!! And she is gorgeous. A perfect combination!!

    Mom and her girls, the star of the show and her godparents. So, so hard getting a natural smile out of this one but I squeaked out a few.Dad had way more luck with that than I did!Something so sweet and sassy about this one. She is such the model!Cannot believe that the baby is so grown up already!You don’t want to know what I had to do to get this shot of everyone laughing. Whatever it takes!Love!!

    the other royal wedding

    On the same day that William & Kate tied the knot, there was another very special wedding. This one was held at Timmy’s school and was for Q & U. Not only a celebration of the two letters that always seem to go together but of the Kindergarteners learning their whole alphabet this year. And the royal wedding playing on the screen in the background.

    Timmy all dressed up in his wedding finery. Teachers and parents really went all out on creating a great wedding and reception.So serious.Jack was ready to run down the aisle to get it over with. Olivia and Ryan, also quite serious.The vows were as follows:

    I, Mr. Q pledge to take you, Ms. U with me wherever I go. And have her stand beside me in all the words that I will make.

    I, Ms. U pledge to follow Mr. Q in all the words that he plans to make. Even though I can make my own words…

    All the boys were Q’s and all the girls were U’s. Could it have been any cuter?

    Timmy with his two favorite girls.  Congratulations to Q&U- they make a lovely couple, dont you think?
