this little beauty was perfection at her newborn session,

and kept the streak going for her one year!

sweet katia was full of silly faces and personality, and fell in love with my little brown stool….

once she had discovered it, she wouldn’t do anything else but hold it/carry it/sit on it.

she had us all cracking up!

her mama brought a cake so we could finish out with a little cake smash, and she was definitely a big fan!

darling little katia…you are something special.

i just loved this one at the very end…. her big brother, conrad, capturing his little sister’s post-cake-smash-excitement
