1. I did three photo sessions with Teagan trying to get the perfect birthday invitation photo only to end up using a snapshot. Go figure. Ah well, it’s done and sent to the printer. Happy about that. I’ll share after his party.

2. One of those photo sessions included the 1 year old right of passage. He totally dug it. It was awesome.

3. An outtake at the end, he looks so tickled with himself doesn’t he? The end involved throwing of the cake….his party should be interesting LOL!

4. This shot cracks me up. Sing it with me…..”one of these things is […]

what?….did you think I was photographing fruit or something?? ha.

i tried out the pioneer woman’s bw action on this one. i like it, which says alot, because I always have a hard time converting anything with red in it and being happy with the results. yeah, i’m probably the last person on the planet to discover her and get hooked on her blog. i think i heard somewhere she was in austin awhile back or something and clicked on her blog out of curiousity. i’ve been a blog stalker ever since…..

love these two from yesterday too…..

got it

The kids and I went out scouting shoot locations today for a few sessions I’ve got coming up. After too long in the car we stopped at the park and played awhile. It was a little cold but nice. Total bonus that I managed to capture his new shiny tooth since it broke through at Christmas….

more tomorrow!

our christmas

so many things i want to remember….ok, a few I don’t want to remember like Teagan cutting his first tooth, everyone being really sick, ear infections…..but I digress…

knowing that buying less gifts this year didn’t change us or the meaning of christmas . the excitement in the air as the grandparents arrived . watching the wonder in teagan’s eyes with each new experience . he was just as happy with the bow on the box as he was with the gift in the box . christmas jammies with names on the hiney . pretty red monogrammed dresses . the kids love uncle scott more than santa . watch t run […]

After naps today Taryn and Teagan were in the playroom, I went to the bathroom and when I came back, I couldn’t find Teagan. He has his favorite spots in the house so I hit those first with no luck. As I was walking through the kitchen I spotted him, spoon left over from lunch, clutched in his hand (yes, it was still on the floor), waiting, just like this. Thankfully my camera was on the counter. You can practically hear him….”mom, i’m not amused, put the camera down and get me some cheerios”.

i’m a doggie. bark bark.

We hear this at least 20 times a day. No exaggeration. It’s not the sound of a bark, it’s the word “bark”. This has been going on for at least 6 months, probably longer. Her imagination and the ways she uses being a dog, never cease to amaze me, she’s a smart cookie doggie.

Anyway, yesterday, I had plans to take Ty and Taryn off shopping while Jase stayed home with Teagan so he could nap. Ty decided not to go, which suprised me. When Taryn and I got back, we found out why. He built our little doggie a dog house. How sweet is he?! Gosh I just love him.
