Week 29c: Best husband ever.

So, after being gone for three days, fixing up a rental place by doing things like install faucets and paint, my husband came home and was still willing to put up our new curtain rods after the kids went to bed. ... I know, right!? (AND, the finials will look so great with my new lamp!)

Week 17b: A Pirate and a Lady (and a Baby?)

What do you get when you mix my daughter's imagination, with my son's silliness, a pile of Daddy's shoes, and one tired baby? You guessed it! These pictures!

Week 16c: Still

These gorgeous tulips and daffodils came out of my yard. Many thanks to the woman who lived in this house before us, as they come up faithfully and beautifully year after year despite my neglect.

And, true to form, I had a "helper" with these shots, too. (Or maybe he was just hinting that I should be working on dinner instead of photography. Hummmm....)

Week 13: Time-out.

Asher got a time-out for hitting.

Turned out okay, though, because he also got a groupie out of it.

(And, in case you are wondering: no. Neither of them were convincing enough to end the three-minute sentence early.)

Week 4: Progression of Family Pictures

We decided to take an official and glorious photograph of the royal family in all their regal splendour, and this is how things progressed:


Isabel poses our family for their pictures.



The Royal Family



A helper intervenes without invitation. (Seeing a trend?)



A few more helpers jump in.



Chaos ensues.



Somehow the royal family is forgotten. And somehow, no one really seems to mind.

Week 3c: Helpful

And, while I was taking the shot of the frames, a little helper came along to see how he could assist. So, here, too, is my baby, who is best viewed as is: dimpled, chatty, and always slightly out of focus.
