The last shot is the best. Not sure what time of day these were taken, but you want to watch the lighting, especially the shadows. In my experience, the best time of day is about an hour before sundown. Still bright enough, but nice soft lighting without having to deal with harsh shadows.

I really like the last one.

The facial expression on the first one is really good, but the sunlight on the right side is distracting. Might be worth cropping.

The pics were taken some time between 3:30pm-5:00pm. That day it must have been at least 20 degrees. The park we were at was a wide open field with little to no trees nearby. It really is too bad about the shadows and the fairly harsh lighting. Maybe if I knew more about PP I might be able to fix them some ...

Either "superglue" or wait till they drop asleep, cos they can sure move quickly
