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!

Outside Fun

The weather has been nice so we've been spending time outside. Our front yard isn't in yet, so the kids are thrilled to have a ginormous sandbox! Of course Abby can't dig around out there yet, so she hung out with her daddy.

Look, he's about to sneeze.



And he's sneezing...


All better.

And look, she's growing hair! It's starting to come in thicker. The little bald spot in the back is even filling in. Both Madie and Jared didn't grow much hair at all until they were two. I even pierced Madie's ears just before she was two so people (old ladies) would stop mistaking her for a boy. I'm so excited it's filling in now!

We chopped down a tree in the front yard and Jared said he'd dig out the trunk with his spade for us. He's a determined little guy.

We let him try for a few days, then had a guy grind it out with an awesome stump grinder. Watching was fun family entertainment.

This pic is so Madie. Messy hair. Pajamas in the daytime. Sassy look.


And don't all you mommies out there think your husband is so much cuter when he's taking care of your baby. Seriously. It's weird. But so true.




She spontaneously started posing for me by putting her arms up, then to the side, then up... funny.
