BFF forever!

How cute are they!? I had this warm fuzzy feeling while doing these pictures of them, because of the strong friendship these girls share. I remembered the strong bond my gang and I had when I was in high school... Although, at their age I was already on my way to university! Sweet, warm feelings! I am still best friends with most of my girls...well, as much as possible at least. Being at about 7000 miles away has it's limitations!
Here you go girls! I will upload a few more later... I am gonna follow my friend Leah's advice and take some time for myself! :)

No Slippy Hair Clippy

I have been working on some images for the newest No Slippy Hair Clippy Catalog and it's finally ready!! Isabeli is a cover baby!!! :) LOL!

Annie has been as absolute doll and working with her has been a pleasure! She liked and trusted my work enough to send me the clips... all the way to Brazil!! :)Everyone who's seen them fell in love at first sight! How not to?

"No Slip Hair Accessories® are a No Slippy Hair Clippy® specialty. They differentiate themselves from the competition by using unique designs and color combinations, as well as mirroring current trends in the fashion industry. They are the first and best of their kind in the entire world."

The clips really stay in, and the choice of fabric, colors and styles are great! Many celebrity babies are spotted wearing them. Make sure you check out their hair accesories next time you read through a magazine, odds are they are wearing No Slippy Hair Clippy clips! :) Have your girly girl be a No Slippy Hair Clippy too! www.hairclippy.com

My "Ronaldinho"

If you know nothing about soccer... you may not know that Ronaldinho Gaucho is the best soccer player in the world. My son is a huge fan of him! He tells me that when he grows up he wants to be like him! Ronaldinho is brazilian and does unbelievable things with the soccer ball. You can watch a little demonstration of Ronaldinho's abilities with the ball here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTH5Mr7oHc0

Ethan has been playing soccer since little and absolutely loves it! He is damn good too! I am pretty sure it's in his brazilian blood! :) Check out these pics I took of him last saturday on his soccer game! Pay close attention to his body language and mouth specially! Too funny! :) (click to see them bigger!)

Here is my favorite soccer player!

She is too much... :) I took this one today while she played outside with my mom... she saw me filling that bucket with water and immediately started to point at it and ask to go in there. haha... she had a blast! Will post more later...gotta go to bed..my parents leave tomorrow very early...:( so so sad!

Blue

Everyone who really knows me, know about my *extreme* love for the color pink. I have so many pink things it's ridiculous! Stiletos, flip flops, sandals, dresses, purses... you name it! Everytime I see ANYTHING pink I must have it... it screams my name! lol

But then Isabeli got this super cute BLUE dress from Stephanie. Steph is the owner and designer of Beary Basics! I then received an e-mail from her with an attached image. This is what I saw:

I was like "Isabeli has that same dress!" Beautiful front cover... not sure who the photographer is, and so excuse me for posting it here... I mean no harm. Anyways, yesterday I decided to dress her in "something different". My mom, who is here visiting with my dad, got this dress out and said "you should try this one... she never wears blue!" We put it on her and... doesn't she look lovely?

 

Of course, being the shoe freak that I am, even though she barely has blue clothes, still she needs shoes on every possible color! This sandals are from Brazil... it's a brand called Ipanema and the shoe was designed for the super model Gisele Bundchen (who seriously have got to watch out because Isabeli will totally take her place pretty soon!) LOL! :)

She loves music and everytime she hears a beat (any beat!), she gets up and dances. It's too stinking cute and just hillarious!

We had a fun afternoon today taking some pictures with my parents who are here visiting from Brazil. I love so many of them... Can't decide which to print now! :)

The handsome birthday little dude!

Peanut came outside and saw us taking pictures...so he decided to pose too!

Now... here is miss bela giving her big brother some lovin'. She ADORES him! Can you tell?

This one is one of my very favs! Love everthing about this image... She is just too precious!

All she wants to do is stand now... soon enough she should be walking!

I can't wait to have this picture up on my wall! Isn't it cute!? Of course my hairy son, Peanut, had to pose too!

Maternity

I meant to post some more of my very first pregnancy shoot and totally forgot! This is Dri, one of my very good friends. We grew up together and I am so happy for her and her hubby with the arrival of their new baby. She was such a trooper! She gave me the freedom I needed to relax and get over the butterflies of working on a maternity session. For us moms, who know what it is to be pregnant, on the 3rd trimester and about to have a baby... Can you believe how great she looks? Here are some of my favorites...

Nt sure why, but for sme reason I really LOVE this one!
