I met my friend Gentry three-and-a-half years ago at a baby shower she was co-hosting for our mutual friend, Julie. The shower was at her house, and I remember talking to my friend Brooke on the drive over. She assured me I was going to fall in love with Gentry and her house. And I totally did. More importantly, Gentry, but her house really is unbelievably gorgeous too (and we’ll be one-street-over-neighbors as of next month – cannot wait!). She is like a young, really well-put-together super mom version of Martha Stewart (minus the criminal record). Gentry’s five gorgeous kiddos (all with the best names – Esther, Olive, Leo, Iris and Moses) are so well behaved and getting to take their family photos again was such a treat for me. I truly struggle to get my two girls looking and smiling in photos, yet magically there are five Kanneganti kiddos doing it in so many pictures it’s unreal! It also helps that they’re all so beautiful.

Isla and Iris are the sweetest little friends. She loved sitting behind me in my desk chair as I edited the photos. She would ask, “Is that Iris? And is that Iris?” and point to her in every one of the photos, ha. I tried my best to narrow down my selection of favorites, but basically failed because they all make me so happy. Scroll down for some of the sweetest family moments!
