I love every time I have the chance to get together with this lovely kiddo, her twin brother, and her wonderful parents who live in Chicago and are such dear friends of mine… hopefully we’ll get to hang out (and swing?) again in a few weeks here in Champaign-Urbana!!

bubblicious! | morris child photographer
Aren’t bubbles tasty?! They must be, because this kiddo thought it was the funniest thing EVER to attempt blowing bubbles by putting the wand right on (or IN) his mouth!

(Seriously, she...
