Almost. There is a lack of silverware. However, the dishwasher was completely full, the baby was only going to sleep for so long, the light was waning and the table full of china needed to be completely set, then completely put away by the time the baby woke up. I was working on a project […]

Sometimes I just have to change it up and frame things a little differently.

It’s more fun to pretend to scare Dada than to get in bed and sleep.

Is this not how everyone descends a hilly driveway? It works for the stairs, so it must work for the driveway too, right?

[portfolio_slideshow: thumbs, true] Well, I used my macro lens. Not all the images necessarily qualify as macro shots ;)

We’re going to try for costume pictures tomorrow.

Today we got to attend a party thrown by sweet friends of ours. Isaac loved the backyard candy hunt and Grayden was thrilled with the opportunity to sit at the big table, without even a booster!

Isaac is loving preschool and today was our first ever school party. Fun stuff!

I had to bring home two.

[portfolio_slideshow: thumbs, true] He didn’t want to take his shirt off because he didn’t want a sunburn. Ha. Maybe I should have explained about the angle of the sun and the difference in the danger to his skin at 6pm vs at 12pm. But I didn’t. I just giggled and offered him a chocolate chip

He would much rather chat than go to sleep. Silly Monkey.

He is terrified of the lawn mower, trimmer and blower. However, he doesn’t like to let his Dada out of his sight. Such a dilemma.

Boo to double pane glass. (well… to it’s reflection distorting qualities, at least)

Those little gnatty bugs are gross… but kind of awesome for pictures.

Macro can make even dirty dish soap bubbles look pretty.

[portfolio_slideshow: thumbs, true] I love his love of books.

[portfolio_slideshow: thumbs, true] I tossed him on the chair a couple times in a row. Doesn’t he look contemplative? Really, he was about .5 seconds from diving off of the chair :)

[portfolio_slideshow: thumbs, true] I wanted some pictures of Grayden’s little feet running along the front walk. I asked him to “go inside.” He ran to the front door. I called him back over and then sent him back to the door. We repeated the process several times until I got the picture I wanted. What

I think all I ever do is take pics of the kids eating :) So here is an insect to spice things up.
