Congrats! I've been trying to get shots like these for a good few weeks, but they sure do love to flutter about in odd postures. The best i have is a lovely rump shot. The first one is my personal favourite!

Very nice shots. I love the butter milk bokeh background. Please share which lens did you use and setting, if you can. TIA
