I love this week’s challenge. I had fully intended to capture every aspect of the word “sweet” but apparently when I have something sweet in my hands, my only focus is to eat it.
As quickly as possible.
So, I give you these three shots.
Here are my babies. They were sitting up here together for so long, I was mowing the lawn and had to run inside to get my camera. I love it.

And I love this shot. I love the way Racecar adores his sister. The way he is so sweetly smiling at her, admiring her. And I love his sweet bedhead and that he is wearing his Team James and Jake shirt. (he picked it out.) The two sat out in these chairs enjoying the wonderful weather playing cards as I spent time working in the garden. I stripped off my dirt covered gloves and ran in to get the camera. They are so sweet.

And here is Erin. So sweetly pregnant, due in July. I had a photo shoot with her tonight, I CAN’T WAIT to share more shots from the shoot with you later this week. She’s a dream to photograph.

She cherishes her pregnancy. I love that.
Now it’s your turn to share you sweetness with the rest of us!

That shot of Erin is BREATHTAKING!
And the kids, well, how sweet are they?
I LOVE these. The one on the porch is just LIFE. And Erin is breathtaking.

Oh I love all of these! Erin is beautiful! There is nothing sweeter then a mommy to be.
Those are so great! I love them all!!!
You really have the knack for capturing moments…
These shots just ooze sweetness. I love those kids.

Oh my gosh Beth! These are awesome. Erin (aka flawless pregnant movie star lady) looks just gorgeous. Will you please take my picture and make me look so good?!? Sweet sweet sweet.
OMG. Magic with the camera, Beth. Pure magic. Those shots of the kids make me want to fly up there and pop them this instant.
Erin is lovelier than lovely and so very, very sweet. What a magic moment. I can’t wait to see more of those. Send them to me, K? Thanks!
Loveyousoverymuch, sugarlips.
You’re making me blush! I love you, and I wouldn’t look half as sweet if you weren’t so talented and good at giving me directions.
p.s. The swing and the porch shot? Amazing. Your kids are so damn cute!
I especially love the one on the swingset…so sweet!
I’m a newcomer to your blog…and will be participating in You Capture in the future…what a great idea.
Great photos, especially the last.
hope my link is working. I’m having trouble with either my internet or blogspot tonight. ugh.
Nice. I love the shot of your pregnant friend. She looks so beautiful and you captured a wonderful expression.

Gorgeous shots, and so sweet (of course!)
I love that first one, Beth! It’s a great photo! Such a perfect summery day and the kids enjoying it together. Too cool.
And your friend is just gorgeous. She looks so…I dunno, the word that keeps coming to mind is serene. Great photos!
Great shots, Erin is beautiful, can’t wait to see more. Love the one of the kids on the porch, classic.

oops I accidentally put me name on Mr. Linky…my bad
But this weeks photos are wonderful and how you captured Erin is absolutely breathtaking. Love it.
dang, my keyboard isn’t working this morning.
I meant…”my” name on that last comment. Hey, it’s early…
first time participant – this just might be fun!
that first one is stunning. Frame it! tey will treasure it for years to come
These are SO great, Beth!! The one of them sitting in the playset is totally frame-worthy!! You must!
Your processing on the 1st 2 give the photos a sense of timelessness. The swingset one is canvas-able! and Erin is stunning

Lovely photos!
Erin looks AMAZING!
Sweet indeed. Your babies are gorgeous. I’ve had those moments before, just hoping they stay put while I can grab the camera. Lucky lady! Your edit is top notch.
Oh, and I love love LOVE that maternity photo. Gorgeous perspective, perfect color and light. She is simply radiant. And giving me intense womb-ache.
Thanks, Beth, as always.
The pictures of the kids are adorable and the shot of Erin is gorgeous. Can’t wait to see more!
Wow. Those shots are amazing! The picture with the swing is just so… ‘summer’ and Erin looks like every Mommy to be wants to look – content and radiant.
Though I’m a total novice – I’d love to ‘play’ – can’t wait!
LOVE, love, love the pic of the kids perched on the swingset!
I’ve had a crazy week, so this sort of caught me off-guard. I took my pictures a few weeks ago-sorry to cheat!
I love the shot of your kids on the swingset. VERY sweet, and I love the editing.
I especially love the second photo, great shots!!!
The pictures of your children are so sweet. The one on the porch is my favourite, such sweet and happy faces
I adore the first one. And the second one is pure sweet. And the last one…well, who doesn’t love a pregnant woman?

Beautiful captures
All amazing shots. Gorgeous pregnancy shot, and your kids’ interactions with each other are so sweet!
You captured AMAZING sweetness Beth! The color and angle of the first one is so neat. The second one is so sweet with Racecar laughing and trying to get the attention of his sister. They ooze sweetness! Erin is simply breathtaking! I LOVE the color and purity of this picture. Looking forward to seeing all of the photoshoot of her.
Very sweet!! I love them all, but Erin’s is especially beautiful!
I love those! The kids are just so wonderful, adoring each other in the way only siblings can.
BEAUTIFUL…ALL OF THEM.
I did not get a chance to find anything sweet this week, guess I was a negative nelly. I didn’t even get the camera out once. BOOOO on me.
I will be back next week, cause family is all i’ve got and I love taking their pictures.
I love that you had to stop gardening– twice– to take pictures. Cuz I do that all the time.
I have learned though to always wash your hands first. Dirt and lens don’t mix well!
And these are beautiful and oh, so sweet.
Love the captures. Your kiddos are adorable!!! The linky thing is not showing up… i’ll stop back later. =)
The photos of the kids are amazing, as is the one of the woman. She is beautiful and looks so happy to be pregnant. I can’t wait to see the other photos!
Beautiful photos! Love the ones of the children and of the woman expecting. She looks so happy to be pregnant. I can’t wait to see the other shots of her.
ummmm where did mister linky go????
You take such meaningful pictures.
Beautiful photographs!
All three pictures are awesome. Erin is very beautiful and the photo is perfectly, touchingly staged but that picture of the kids on the swing set is incredible. The colors are SO amazing. It looks like a color tinted black and white. Is it? I absolutely love it. Wow!!!
Nice photos! My first time by here. I remember you from Blissdom (so many people!), but never got around to all the websites I collected. You have a great blog!
Beautiful photos!
