Sweet {Mr. Z} is a childhood best friend's son.  They were cruising through town on their way back home on the East Coast and I met them to chat for awhile and we decided to make one quick pit stop at the park right by the restaurant to snap just a couple family pics.  

{Newborn A}| Racine Newborn Photographer

This little man is the son of two good friends that I went to college with at Milwaukee School of Engineering.  We've known each other for 9 years now (holy cow has it been that long?!) and I was SO excited when I was pretty much one of the first to know they were expecting and helped them create a unique announcement! Little {A} was stubborn at first at just over 2 weeks old - but he came around for me!

{1 Year Miss L}| Kenosha-Racine Child Photography

This little girl is super close in age to my son.  I met her momma through a local moms group and it's been fun watching the two grow up!  And she's quite the stubborn little lady - but she has to be with two big brothers!
