Welcome to my blog!

My super awesome husband gave me a super fabulous camera a few years back and I've been hopelessly obsessed and have driven my children crazy with, "look at Mommy" and "you can have a piece of candy if you let me take 5 pictures", ever since. Here are just a few of those moments I steel away from my uber cute kiddos, and a few more moments I occasionaly get to take of other people...to the relief of my family. I do love to practice on anyone who will let me, so if you would like your picture taken let me know!

Haircuts

My poor, poor two year and two month old little girl still does not have enough hair to pull up into a real ponytail. We can do a little fakey pony on the top of her head that makes her look like little Cindy Who, but that's about it. What I'm trying to say is, it's short. I haven't wanted to cut it because taking off any length just seems like a mean thing to do. But as has been pointed out to me several times in the last few weeks, she just looks scroungy, ratty, and messy. So I finally gave in and we had Kristyn over today to give M her very first real haircut. She did a good job too. It really doesn't look any shorter, but it's definitely cleaned up.

She started out WAY excited to get her hair cut.


J was pretty excited too.


Look at that mop on his head.


M was really good and sat very still, for a while, but by the end was getting restless. We bribed her with candy and she held out until the end.


Ta-Daaaaaaaa!

She is actually sitting there all cute with her hands twisted together, but is obviously topless and is in her new princess undies, so you get the web-edited version.

Then it was J's turn for a chop.


And on another note...my sister-in-law Kayla got married this morning! We weren't able to get to Utah for it and am way bummed to have missed it, but I can't wait to see pictures and hear all about it. Nathan tried to call out that way earlier today, but I'm sure they are super-duper busy and didn't make it to the phone. We'll have to hear all about it later.
