happy fourth!

wishing you all a very fun and safe holiday today! 

i'm leaving you with a few pictures of the little fourth of july shoot we did yesterday in our front yard. although 99.9% of the time brooke appears to have ants in her pants, she cooperated for a whole 5 minutes so i could get a few shots in. five minutes is an eternity is toddler land. trust me. brooke is also 17 months old today! feels like i blinked and now it's summer, she needs new jammies and says mama about a billion times a day. she needs to get my memo and stop growing for a bit. go it brooke? a mama can dream.
