Outgrowing the basket

I finally got a picture of my baby in a basket, even though he's too big and his feet are hanging over!  Oh, and he still has to wear socks/mittens on his hands because he will scratch the heck out of himself otherwise!  

Same photo, different setting.

Love this girl

My beautiful Jordan.

Overalls and Wheelbarrows

Can't get enough of this sweet boy:)

Pinterest

Anyone else addicted to Pinterest???  I saw this cool project on pinterest a week or so ago and thought that I just had to do it with pictures of my three kids as babies.  I haven't done it yet, but I really want to.  You basically mod podge photos to a canvas.  There's a step by step tutorial if you go to the link.

Here are the pictures I want to use.  I have a picture of Jordan on a CD from Portrait Innovations I would like to use, but I can't find the CD.  Bummer.

Rylie (I think this might be my all time favorite photo)

Zoo

Here are a few of my favorite pics from the zoo today.  We went with my friend Yvonne and her son, Evan.  

Butterfly

The butterflies are swarming at our house!  They've really gathered around these purple flowers.  I love nature and the beginnings of summer!

More Practice with Window Light

A little more practice with window light (and the miracle of photoshop!)  See his mittens?  He has a bad case of eczema and he scratches himself badly, so they are worn to protect his little baby skin. 

Ice cream at the park

They sure do like their ice cream!

Messy.

Not-so-messy.

Botanica

We were going to go to the zoo today, but went to Botanica instead.  Here's a little peek into our explorations there...

Always moving!

Look at all those HUGE roley poleys (how in the world do you spell that???)

Of course we saw plenty of beautiful flowers

And when this one needed fed and changed...

...these two played doctor.

Never stops moving!

Still got to see butterflies, even if there weren't any in the butterfly house.

And I have to tickle these two to get any smiles out of them!

Working hard to water the plants...

Sitting pretty.

What a cool tree.

First milestone in becoming mobile

Look at what my little man did this morning...

...he rolled from is back to his tummy!  If you are a little worried that it could have been the other way, don't be.  I was right there beside him, keeping him safe:)  That is, until I jumped up to get the camera!
