Shefali Lindsey Photography Blog: family: ryan+ashlea+aubrey

It is amazing how quickly time flies by in that first year. One minute they are just born, in your arms and trying to open those sweet little eyelids, and the next thing you know, they have an abundant amount of personality, they are crawling, walking and running while chirping out mama and dada. It kind of makes your heart melt. Piece by piece. Bryan and I do not have little munchkins of our own quite yet, but it's been amazing to watch some of my families as well as my own nieces, nephews and cousins grow so quickly. Only if Father Time could slow time down a bit!

That time of the year is here for the Noonan family as they celebrate Aubrey's first birthday. The theme: Owl Be One. The Chi O heart in me about died when I heard Ashlea's ideas. As for this family, they kind of stole my heart. Piece by piece. And, it was not only the fact that they are some of the sweetest people I have ever met, but in moments when they thought no one was looking, they would love on Aubrey just a little more than the moment before whether it was Ryan kissing her hands or Ashlea squeezing her in for a tighter hug. As for Miss Aubrey, I got lost in those big, beautiful blue-eyes and sweet smiles. She is up for a GOOD time especially when cupcakes come out of cute little boxes (cutest face ever when she saw that cupcake by the way!). There is no other way to describe this ever so sweet family other than I adore them. Piece by piece.

How gorgeous is this family?!
