Remember this nursery rhyme from when you were a kid?
What are little boys made of?
Frogs and snails,
And puppy-dogs’ tails;
That’s what little boys are made of.
What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice,
And all that’s nice;
That’s what little girls are made of.
I always loved that nursery rhyme. Even growing up…it made me so happy that I was a little girl. Because I was just so relieved that I was made of sugar and not snails.
As a pediatrician, Maria gets to see all of the cute things that little boys and girls are made of. And as she was a little girl once, too, there’s no doubt she is most definitely made up of sugar and a little bit of spice, too. She seriously has this sweet, lovable disposition and then can just as quickly turn on the silliness – especially when Chris gets her going.
Chris is also a doctor and if they say that laughter is good for the soul, then Chris definitely knows how to treat the whole person. He’s funny and warm and is the first one to never take anything too seriously.
We found out really quickly, that if we found a nice little spot with gorgeous light and just left Maria and Chris alone for a few minutes, they’d soon start playfully teasing each other and laughing – those really good, start at the bottom of your belly laughs, too. I think they’ve found the secret to a wonderfully close, long lasting relationship…watching them together makes me wish that kind of unabashed glee on every couple out there.
So we met them recently in Rockport, MA for their engagement session. Rockport is a quaint little town on the rocky coast just north of Boston. And it also happens to be one of their favorite little towns to hang out in. After being rained out for our first few scheduled dates, we finally seized the day and had the most amazing afternoon complete with beautiful sunset and warm summer temperatures.
Here are just a few of our favorites, and I hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed taking them!!
