Isabella and her cousin Addison

My Husband's cousin, Jennifer and her family came out to California from St. Louis for a Principles convention in San Francisco. So during some free time Jennifer drove out to Rohnert Park with her daughter, Addison who is 2 months younger than my daughter Isabella. They asked if I would take Addison's pictures so Jennifer and I had coordinated on the phone about good places and cute outfits, etc. You know, good ol' California Wild Mustard fields, vineyard, bright blue sky pictures! Of course the day came and it was pouring down rain! It wasn't even sprinkling it was POURING! So I met them at my Mother in Law's house. We all sat down on the floor with the kids and let the cousins meet for the first time. Isabella and Addison are only 2 months apart but Isabella looked like she swallowed two of Addison! It was just so funny! I know as they get older they will both grow to a similar size but it was just too funny to see my thunder thigh, triple cheeky baby sitting next to this adorable little ballerina princess! Not to mention Isabella is having a bit of a hair crisis. It's like a cross between Justin Beiber and Kate Gosslin! and of course by the end of the play date we had to take her fashionable skinny jeans off and let her legs breath so in one of the pictures I took of them she looks like a crazy over sized doll with some crazy hair cut! One day when she grows up she is going to look at these pictures and really want to kill me!!
I thought I'd share a few cute "personal" photos I took of the kids in the house and then share a few from Addison's photo shoot out on the covered porch in the pouring rain!
