The flowers are blooming and the baby bees are buzzing 'round.

I'm going to show this to everyone at his 8th grade graduation.

I knew there was a reason I've had this headband in the closet for years.

I've had a few emails asking how I get so many good pictures. The answer is... I take a ton of pictures and some of them are bound to be good.

The others, not so much. Clockwise: Looking the wrong direction, outfit too small he can't lift his head (ha!) and the last 2 he is just trying to eat the prop.

I also sound like a total fool when I'm taking pictures of him.

Peanut! Peanut! uuuhhhhblblblblblblblbl ~clap~ hi baby! ~series of odd sounds~ ~snap fingers~ ~smack lips loudly~ uuuuhhhhh BOO!

He is bound to laugh and smile when you act like a complete idiot.

You have to have lots of patience and a grandpa willing to move the subject around doesn't hurt.

The light was actually to harsh outside so we tried it again at home.

This kid is so used to having his picture taken. Poor kid doesn't know any better.

Anyway, we're looking at an overcast week (with possible showers) but I can't complain much because last week was gorgeous.

Are you seeing signs of spring where you are?

  1. The geese are back, that's a sure sign that warm weather is moving in!

    Peanut poses like a pro for photo taking, remember how compliant he was when he's a teenager. : )

  2. Spring? Well, I guess. There is no snow on the ground and my daffodils are coming up....but there is snow predicted for Thursday.

    And Peanut is SOOOOOO going to thank you for taking those pictures when he gets to be about 16.
