I can’t believe it has only been 3 months since I did an official shoot of Arthur and Wesley. So much has happened…. For anyone that doesn’t know, my husband and I lost our house and both our cars in a tornado in May (soon after A & W’s 15 month shoot). We are extremely fortunate that no one was hurt and we did not lose much in the way of personal belongings. It has been an interesting summer living at my uncle’s house (we’ve completely taken over his space and are eternally grateful to him) and searching for a new home. Ari and Wes have been troopers through the whole ordeal and they have grown an amazing amount in the last few months.  They’ve really starting talking a lot more lately and they love playing outside, swimming, going for bike rides, and “helping” Mom with the sweeping and laundry. I’m happy to report that their 18 month photos were taken in the backyard of our new house (yeah!) and in Dad’s work truck, which they were even more impressed with….go figure!
