Tamy’s Grandbabies

I know, I know, I promised pictures of six adorable kids almost two weeks ago. Well, I’m finally following through. Sorry to keep you waiting.

These are some photos of the youngest generation of one of the coolest families I’ve ever known. I grew up with the kids and now they’ve gone and had kids of their own. Their mom asked Wendy and me to get some family photos of the lot of them, and I can’t say no to Tamy. The result was an absolute blast, but it definitely increased my respect for my buddy Rebekah and other photographers who are especially adept at kids and families. Did you know, for instance, that infants will not necessarily look at the camera when you ask them to? I mean, what are these kids thinking? They’re grandmother is paying good money for these pictures and they’re more interested in the dog than they are in looking good in their family portrait.

I blame television.

All kidding aside, bask in the adorableness that is Tamy’s family. First off, the twins.

Can you guess which is the boy and which is the girl?
(Insert Dora the Explorer pause)
You’re right! Was it the haircuts that gave it away?

This little guy wanted to show his cousin some affection. After all, doesn’t everybody love a kiss?

Admittedly, this may have been excessive.

Even he seems to agree.
(Chalk it up to a life lesson, kid.)

Do you think this photo presages their future relationship?

Argh! Can’t make…snarky…comment…baby feet…too…cute!

While we were shooting, Tamy quoted these lyrics from the musical Annie to me and I thought they’d go nicely here:

Some women are dripping with diamonds,
Some women are dripping with pearls.
Lucky me! Lucky me!
Look at what I’m dripping with:
Little girls!
