The Nephews

If you’ve been reading along for any amount of time, you know that I spend a lot of time with my nephews. My sister and I are really close and our kids are constantly begging to see each other. It is rare when we don’t see them at least once on the weekends. My sister asked me months ago if I would do the boys’ photos for their birthdays this year and we finally found a day to do them. I think they turned out pretty good, but as always, I learned that there are a few things I should do differently next time.

p.s. You can thank my husband for this post as he has been complaining about the lack of of updates lately.

A Random Saturday

I’m not feeling very wordy today, so I thought I’d share these photos from Saturday afternoon. It was absolutely beautiful outside so I bribed the kids to let me take photos while they played. They are mostly of Evie, as Zach refuses to let me take a decent picture of him these days. They were so happy to be playing outside that I couldn’t get them to come in for dinner!

When Mommy Says No

…just ask Daddy!

I was trimming Evie’s nails after her bath when she asked me if she could have paint on them too. Since it was already bed time, I said no and told her she would have to wait until tomorrow night. Her response? “Daddy will. Daddy’s always nice.”

65/365 - Mommy said no, so she asked Daddy instead

Apparently she was right.

The Longest Short Month

Months

Well, that was the longest short month ever. I’m so happy that we’ve finally made it to March. It seems like my birthday was ages ago, when really, it has only been 3 weeks. I feel like I’ve gone through most of it in a daze. I spent nearly a week sleeping after my surgery, then spent the next week in a mad rush to get things caught up at work. Now that I finally feel like I can breathe again at work, my house is a mess and the laundry is piling up. Oh, how I miss my mother-in-law!

I had my 2-week check up today with my doctor and everything is looking good. I was a little concerned about one of my incisions, but she seems to think it looks okay and told me to put some neosporin on it a couple times a day. She said I can go back to normal activity as I feel up to it, as long as I don’t overdo it. I didn’t tell her I’ve been pushing myself to that point for over a week now. She obviously does not know my kids or how much energy they require.

And now, in order to rescue this extremely insightful post, here are cute photos of my kids that I took last week.

Joy of Love – Day 2

How She Looks

Now that I’ve learned the basics of my camera (though there is still LOTS more to learn), I’m trying to challenge myself more. One way I’m doing this is through my 365 project, but I also decided to join in Willette’s “The Joy of Love” class for the month of February. Each day there is a photo assignment to complete. Today’s topic was “How they look” which was just way too easy. As soon as I pulled my camera out, Evie started making faces at me. I love this face so much!
