Bundled up to get apples...

not sure which one I like better...I had to spend a few minutes removing the cheese off of her face in photoshop!

Just like Ma!

Well, it snowed today so we got bundled up to go explore. I put Eva's warmest clothes on with her cute pink fur lined jacket.



She decided she'd rather wear Ma's hat and scarf!

Photography news - Wedding

This is exciting for me - my photography teacher chose me to help him shoot a Raleigh wedding at the end of the month. It will be my first professional shoot behind the camera. Yay!

Like mother, like daughter

I remember saying to myself growing up that I would never, NEVER stack things on the stairs for my kids to put away. For some reason that always drove me nuts (sorry Mom)! But now, not only do I stack stuff on the stairs for the kids to put away, but for Todd too. It makes perfect sense to me now, I guess I just didn't see it that way as a child.

Apparently Eva has a little more clarity than I...if she finds any shoes or other articles of clothing on the main level, she runs them straight over to the stairs! She is so happy and so proud of herself when she does it, that she claps :)

Mickeyisms

Ok, so most of you know that I keep a book called Mickeyisms where I write down some of the silly things that Mickey says. I'm going to start putting some on here because I often think of them while I'm sitting at my computer. If you can think of any, please add them in the comment section! Also, if you can remember his age when he said them, be sure to put that down as well...

Mickey, he's the coolest one (age 5)
King Arthur Day (age 10)
Beep! (age 5)
Hey, how about you look at my face (age 5)
Retirement - it's when you give up (age 9)
My bathroom is so clean and white, it's like heaven (age 10)
tanbark (age 5)


I'll think of more and keep adding on!

Some favorite new words...and other new things

turtle
Cuacito
pizza
help
pe-yow (said whenever there is something stinky, ie a foot, sock, skunk etc)

Caca (Santa - no idea where she got that one!)

diaper - for some reason paper diapers are 'diapers' and cloth diapers are 'poo poos'

Ma is still her name for Mickey

who who for an owl sound and uhu uhu if you want to hear it in Spanish!

What a cute boy!

Athletic photoshoot

I needed to do some athletic shots for my portfolio. I shot with a local Raleigh photographer today and got a ton of great shots. Now the problem is narrowing it down...

Football

Running

Yoga
