The Watkins Family Photo Shoot

When my Mother-in-law told me we were going to do Family Pictures this November...I was actually quite annoyed.  Only because I love photos...but knew I would only be like a month postpartum...and still have what I feared (the preggo belly.) However, I had Lucy a few weeks early and we decided to have my cute friend take the pics and I was almost...excited...because I knew she would be great.
Then we had a LONG day...and Lucy was being a "BEAR" as we like to call her.  She cried most of the photo shoot.  With all that negativity going into it....somehow I got these adorable photos!!!  Seriously, I didn't think I would get more than one and what do ya know...LOVE THEM!  Sorry Sue for doubting you and amazingly...Lucy isn't crying in all of them after all...(fast shutter-speed and the great Mele.)

Enjoy!!
 

 

 

Notice Lucy's bow...cracks me up!

 

 

This is how I remember the shoot! Poor Lucy was tired!

 

 

The Whole Clan.  Can I just say how lucky I am to be apart of this group.

Lucy was being chill so we moved the photo shoot to her. 
 

Tess and Lucy are 2 weeks apart in age.

 

Maya, Janalyn, Cicily, Chris and Sophie

 

The couple who started it all...

This is my favorite picture.  Lucy was finally happy and content so we just gathered round and got a shot.  I remember thinking..."Well....one will turn out!"

And it did.
