February Week #4.

February 19th to February 25th.

2012.

Sunday afternoon naps are the best.  :)  Thanks for capturing this one with the camera, Peter! 

 Mama loves you, baby boy.

After school play time at home. 

We had gorgeous weather this week so we played outside a lot. 

 hehehe... I had fun finding photo booth props at the Dollar Spot at Target and Noah was happy to give them a test run.  :)  Thanks, Tara, for the notice about Target!  Ties and hats for $1 or less... can't beat that!

Emily got in on the fun, too! 

Noah loved the tie and didn't want to take it off...

he especially loved using it as a paci/teether... 

See you next time!

February Week 3

February 12th - 18th

Noah started drinking water from a sippy cup!

Flowers to me from Pete.  :) 

Flowers to Emily from Pete.  :)  :) 

 Emily and her valentine.

I guess I can share him with her.  :)

 Happy Valentine's Day!

Emily & me

Emily's attempt at taking a picture of us.  I don't know why we only tried once, but we did.

Happy Valentine's Day anyway!

 Saturday morning was beautiful.

Gotta love So Cal weather!

 Noah exploring the sandbox. . . 

This is my view most days... with this adorable little boy trying to climb up my leg.  :) 

 Noah is having a bit of separation anxiety and has not been letting us leave him with a babysitter.  

This means date nights at home after the kids are in bed with a glass of wine, yummy snacks, and movies or games.  :)  

As much as we love hanging out at home, I think we'll both be glad when this anxiety lets up and we can (occasionally) go out again.  :)

February Week 2

February 5th-11th, 2012

 A friend asked me to snap some photos of their little girl for her birthday.

Her birthday was on New Years' Day, but we didn't get around to it until today because of all of the colds and flus going around.

Sweet little Josie and her bunny :) 

 Today (Sunday) I brought my camera over to their house where we watched the Super Bowl and hung out.  

 I love her chubby little hands!

 Isaac, Em & Jo

 Emily actually wanted to pose for a photo or two after watching Josie.

It's funny that in these two back to back photographs she is standing the same way.

This is her current 'take a picture of me' stance.

On Friday, Emily's preschool had a trike-a-thon. 

Emily rode her princess scooter. 

 

...just a random shot of some of the toys on our fridge....

...it's not exciting or beautiful, but it's part of the 'stuff' that makes up our life these days.  :)

February Week 1

(January 29-February 4)

Sorry for the delay, but these pictures were part of a secret for Pete until Valentine's Day.  :)

All of this week's photos are from my Saturday morning mini photo shoot.  

(Posted on Valentine's Day.)

I fully intended to take pictures of Noah in just his diaper with wings, but, well... life happens and this is all I've got.  :)

{mmuah!}

Happy Valentine's Day!!!
