Just Doing Some Catching Up | Julie Marie Portraits
Love, love, love this family of 4 boys.....they are such a beautiful family, and although we're not having anymore kiddos, seeing this family always makes me think 2 more boys would be fun! :)

3 Years Old Pix | Julie Marie Portraits
I can't hardly believe that my first baby turned 3 this past Monday. It just amazes me as to how time flies the older I get! Anyway, Jake got his haircut tonight. When we got home, he grabbed his mower, and I grabbed my camera. I bribed him to smile at me with some chocolate kisses and told him to jump and run...of course he was more than willing to do that! These have got to be some of my favorite pix ever of him. They depict him to a T! He is my strong-willed, independent, loving little wild man that doesn't sit still unless he's reading a book or playing on the ipad. Oh, how I love him!!!

Happy January | Julie Marie Portraits | Chicago Children's Photographer
Hope everybody is having a great January! We are enjoying our downtime so much along with all of our visitors that have been here! I really didn't have much to say except that I wanted to pop in to say hi and of course, post some pix of my boys! To give you an update, big brother Jake is starting to acknowledge his brother somewhat.....i guess the good thing is that Jake does not want to be near his brother, so he's not bothering him at all! However, I was able to get some funny pix of the two of them yesterday. Also, yesterday Johnny was 4 weeks....my how the time is flying!
One of my favorite blogs did a picture like this below for every week of her daughter. I, however, am going to do a monthly picture just to show how big he gets.

Our New Baby Boy | Julie Marie Portraits | Chicago Children's Photographer
We're very excited to introduce you to our new little boy, John Emerson Trust, aka Johnny. What a joy he has brought to our lives in just one short week!
It was really hard to imagine how we could love another little boy as much as we love our Jake, but the minute he was born, that all changed and we were instantly in love with him. He truly is a blessing.
Big brother Jake is adjusting quite well except for the fact that he doesn't want to really touch him or go near him.....although he wants to know what baby Johnny is doing at all times. One night he did lay down on the floor with Johnny and show him his woowoo's....HUGE step for Jake!
So, today was the first day that Jake, Johnny and mommy were all by ourselves...and thus far, success! I'm even writing a blog post if that tells you anything. My parents helped out so much, and we can't thank them enough. Sadly, they went back to Ohio yesterday, and we were very sad to say goodbye to them. In fact, Jake keeps asking about them and says he "misses them a wot"! We're so thankful that they were able to be here along with my sister, niece and nephew for the birth of Johnny...can't even imagine what we'd do without all of them.
Hope everybody has a Merry Christmas! We are looking forward to spending Christmas as a family of four in our new home in Illinois!
Josh, Julie, Jake & Johnny

Happy Birthday & Best Buds | Julie Marie Portraits | Chicago Children's Photographer
I just wanted to wish my dad a Happy, Happy Birthday tomorrow! We wish we could be there to celebrate with him, but we were lucky enough to have some birthday cake with him this past Monday! I can't even imagine what I'd do without him....he is the best dad without a doubt, and I owe him so much for all the help and work that he did for us this past week for our move (and my mom gets a shout out too for all the help)! We love you dad, and hope you have the best birthday!!
If you can't tell, Jakey loves his Papa! He's asked everyday this week if NanaPapa were coming to our new home when daddy got home from work, too!
And one more favorite from this week....Jakey and his best bud, Dexter! Love those two!
