It's Fall!

It's fall here in MN- which means winter should be here in 2 days. I got the kids outside for what probably is one of the last nice days of the year.

good trade

~~~I've witnessed baby smiles and coos, hiccups, burps and tears, - At the cost
of social life, leisure and career ... But when I add up all the sacrifices I
have made to cuddle with my baby ...I can only say, "Good trade!" ~~~

Pasta anyone?

If you want some, you'll have to scrape it off Kate's face first. Guess who got a bath...?

sewing...

I have been at the sewing machine a lot lately and just finished this top as a custom. It was really happy fabric to work with :)

Katie

Yay for warm weather!

Spring has sprung!

A picture of a mama bird who has built her nest in our light :)

Day 11... Beep, beep little pink Jeep

colds are leaving and the sun has started showing! yay!

Day 10...

I have been working on flannel prefolds for my store Baby of Mine and was taking pictures of Kate in one and this one just stuck out to me :)

Day 9... winter- er spring blahs....

This is what spring REALLY looks like here. Grey... snowy... rainy... blah

The dreaded spring colds have hit us...

This is why I haven't posted in a while... my whole family has decided to take part time jobs as mucus factories... they are doing super at it I might add.

I also have been busy getting ready for The Spotted Box and working on custom orders. Here is one pic I managed to take over the past few days- that doesn't have any bodily fluids on it LOL!

Day 8... Kate

Day 7... Easter egg dye.... everywhere! :)

We have the most unusual colored eggs at our house- my son kept re-dying the already dyed eggs. He had a blast! (and a bath!)

Day 6... Catchlights

This was our "homework" on the shutterbugs forum.

'catchlight’ is simply the highlight of a light source reflected off the surface of the eye. This highlight adds depth and dimension to the eye, and gives the eyes life in a portrait or snapshot

day 5... Signs of Spring in Minnesota

day 4... I think my son is getting annoyed with me & my camera

the pout...

day 3... "he knew me when..."

This is Baryshnikov (aka Bear dog) he has been through a lot with me. He was here before I was married, before I had kids- before I had even grown up. He's my boo dog.

day 2 ... Logan's House of blues

These were taken with me just messing around with my camera and became a whole afternoon of shooting Logan and his blue horn

day 1

Logan's contagious smile...
