i don’t know when a baby becomes ticklish…but this one sure laughs when you rub her belly!
i’m not sure who smiles more between the two of them when adam is holding her. it makes my heart melt. it’s amazing.
i took these on sunday. i’ve heard that most babies are happiest in the morning…can someone please figure out how to make her feel like it’s
morning all day long? lol. or make her feel that well rested after each nap? awesome. 
heart, mel and adam
as most of you know, these are my nieces! anna jo is 10mths and ella jane is 2 1/2! ella is a great big sister:) but miss anna is all sorts of curious
and independent now that shes walking all over! they are two of the happiest kids i’ve ever met! (and most beautiful too…duh!)
anna isn’t as into the camera as ella is, with our big ones, she doesn’t quite know what it is just yet. don’t worry, she will soon enough!
i’m willing to bet she looks identical to how brittany did at this age, just with darker hair. i just love this!!
we separated the two of them to get some individuals…adam said ella was moving a mile a minute. but you’d never know it! so cute.
look at my teeth!!
no more monkeys jumpin on the bed.
look at the eyelashes!!! they touch her brows!
this is MY FAVORITE!! i’ve been wanting to do a shot like this forever…it surely wasn’t easy to get, but this is perfect!!
team klems. thats my sister brittany and my BiL brian. the girls are a perfect mixture of the two of them.
then of course we had to get the non stop movin’ two yr old into our ‘photo booth’.
who me? i’m an angel! (….uhhhh huh! 
)
can’t wait til nori is old enough to take pics with them! annnnnnnnnnnnd our other sister, ALI, JUST GAVE ME PERMISSION TO ANNNNNNOUNCE…
SHE’S PREGGGGGERS!! YES!! she’s almost out of her first trimester. and guess who get’s to be the godmother!! yours truly 
the baby is due
just a few days before my birthday! what a great present! plus eric and erin’s baby…this year is going to be SO MUCH fun!!! can’t wait!
heart, mel and adam.
what a fabulous way to start our day…adam getting back in bed to snuggle with us! he works about 40 min away, and he was told he could work from home!
he probably could have made it into work, but when they would inevitably tell them to leave early because of the bad weather…he did NOT want a 4 hour
commute home. it happened to him a couple years ago and he refuses to go through thatmadness ever again!! ugh. so when we finally rolled out of bed at
oooooo about NOON , he started to make some last minute adjustments to our new site. he tried to work but boy who could work while holding this
happy of a baby?!!! huge smiles, one after the other! coo-ing + her attempt to chuckle! ahhh perfection! this is what always happens… we don’t want to
miss the enjoyment of the moment to grab a real camera, so we grab an iphone. so i apologize for it’s quality, but the image is priceless, i had to share!
against adam’s wishes he spent a couple hrs clearing close to 9in. of snow, piling it on top of the 10+ that’s already in our yard! it really is a winter wonderland out there!
meanwhile i decided to take some 8 wk shots of nori. she’s discovered her hands, and sucks away on them. hilarious.
i just got done blowing the hair dryer all over her. she loooooves that!! when she’s in the sling while i dry my hair, she smiles the whole time as the air hits her face.
hahahaha! this is my favorite! man, how cool it could would be if she could talk!! WHAT is she thinking??
she’s still working on that whole ‘fetal position’ thing…her breech legs just don’t understand yet! you want my knees to bend how??
i wish i had a good laughing shot of adam available. he totally has this same crooked smile! WEIRD. she has my lips with his smile.
well that went south quickly. it’s hard to shoot a naked baby by yourself while it’s cold. posing, keeping them warm and getting the shot all simultaneously!!
on another note, adam has continued to keep himself busy by developing a brand new website. let’s face it, the old one is holding us back, to say
the least! lol. we have college work on there, that’s a wee bit embarrassing! so here’s a sneak peek!
that’s all for now. hope everyone is staying safe and warm! heart, mel, adam and nori!
