A morning at the beach

I photographed my other niece and two nephews this morning at the beach.

Thomas, 1, is has the bluest eyes and is cuter than any Gap model. I saw him two months ago at our wedding, and already he's gotten so much bigger! Look how grown up he is, with his polo shirt and cargo shorts.


Morgan, almost 5, has beautiful curls and the sweetest smile. Here's a joke from Morgan: "What kind of dog has no tail?"

Answer: a hot dog.

Jack, 7, is a terrific big brother. He taught me (well, tried to teach me) how to throw a baseball. Here's a joke from Jack: "Have a nice trip! See you next fall!" (Get it?)


We walked around Fire Island along the water. The beach was so stunning it looked like a movie set -- and it's within easy reach of Manhattan. Except for one stretch of nude sunbathers, we practically had the whole beach to ourselves.


At first, Thomas wasn't sure if he liked the sand. Mom piled it over his feet so he could get used to wiggling his toes in it. A few minutes later, he took off in a wobbly run down the beach and didn't even need the reassurance of his mom's hand.

And one more joke from Morgan: "Why did the boy throw the clock out the window?"

(He wanted to see how time flies.)




A picture of the whole family. Morgan started feeling under the weather, so after some snacks at the beach, we headed back along the boardwalk.

Baby Finn

The sweetest, most mellow baby in the world is right here.




Finn's mom and dad, Angela and Lewis, are former colleagues from the P-I. We went to Pike Place Market because it's one of their favorite places in Seattle.


Finn, 8 months old, was a little trooper during the photo shoot. He kept peering at all the exciting sights and smells. He loved the dogs -- "Dog!" is one of his first words -- and the other little babies at the market. It's amazing how babies seem to recognize each other in the big people world.





I love Finn's little toes. Too cute!
