Everett, his new dog Zuma….and his little cousin Tess!

Tess’s big cousin Everett who is 8 years old just got a dog!  Zuma is the cutest puppy ever….little Tess has competition now for the cutest new person in the family.  Tess LOVES her big cousin.  Unfortunately, at the time of the shoot, Zuma was budding teeth and was biting everything in site, including Tess….needless to say, the shoot was a little stressful.  Zuma’s teeth actually tore a huge whole in my new sweater dress….but when you become a mom, you realize that the survival of any species rests on the fact that we put up with all of this stuff because the young ones are JUST TOO CUTE!!!
