When Leah reached out about doing her maternity pictures with her wife and daughter, she made sure I knew first thing that she wanted these to be non-traditional. She joked about how she isn't the typical pregnant woman and wanted to make sure that amongst the "serious" ones that she also got some that matched her goofy personality…

One of the perks of my job is that I get to know all the secrets before everyone else… luckily I am good at keeping them! Last time you saw this crew on the blog, Baby T was a little newborn and now they are excited to announce baby #3 on the way…
