Six months may not seem like a long time, but in baby years, it is truly an eternity.

Those sweet little faces seem to change on a daily basis.

I'm always taken a little aback when I have a newborn or toddler back in for photos 6 months later or even a year later. He or she may look like a completely different child. 

For parents, the change happens gradually. When you don't see the child every day, however, it's dramatic.

The sweet little swaddled bundle is now a moving personality. It's so fun to see and so completely amazing.

Vin was in the studio this fall for his 6-month photos.

When I last saw him in person, he was cuddled up against mom. He was so little. The newborn cried only briefly during that first session and then was completely content.

At 6 months, I was surprised at how much he'd grown. How bright-eyed and smiley. How easily he now sits. How much he favors his older sister. How he continues to be completely easy going. How completely loved he is. He is a joy!

Mom and Dad are obviously on to something:)
