My New Camera

I am now the happy owner of a digital SLR camera! I have dreamed of and waited for a camera like this for the past couple of years. My amazing craigslist find was well worth the wait!

I am learning LOTS!  I am absolutely determined to learn to shoot in manual.  I know it will take time and practice. 

More pictures coming your way soon!

Brooklyn

She's so much fun to take pictures of!  Doesn't the sugar just drip?

Everyday Moments

Austin can be very gentle with his little sister when he wants to be.  However, that is not most of the time.  She's gonna learn to be tough.  She had a fire-engine truck thrown at her the other day giving her a puffy eye lid.  Austin didn't get away with that one.  Thankfully, I saw it happen with my own eyes.

3.5 months.

Thanks Kylie for being my little photographer.

Kylie is so sweet to hold Brooklyn while I get a bottle ready.

Sisters.

Kylie working on her 100's chart.  She can write her numbers to 100!

My very busy Austin.

Sweet moments with daddy.

Austin thought she needed sunglasses on.  And obviously, she thought differently.

One night after I came home from the grocery store and was putting groceries away, I found this.  Kylie loves to write and copy words off of boxes.  Is this cute or what?

I am finally catching these smiles on camera!

Austin loves to help Kylie empty the dishwasher (that is her duty in the house now).  It is so cute to watch her show him where things go.

Austin and his cars.

Does he look proud or what?

Oh how I love the moments when these 2 play nicely together.

Kylie busily cutting out of the grocery ads. 

My huge helper.

Tears!

That's what I wanted!

Watching a video on the computer.

Awww.  Precious.

Austin is just beginning to love Thomas.

He now has Carson's old pre-school back pack.  Sweet memories.

Good morning girls.

Austin is now into undressing himself and running around without clothes.  Thankfully, he keeps the diaper on.

Playing princesses with sis.

Love this picture.  Movie time in the office with dad.

Making cupcakes for Carson's school.

Sister snuggle time.

Kylie's last dance in her favorite Cinderella dress.  It was so torn to shreds in the back that it really couldn't be mended.  It had to be pitched.  So sad.

Last night's supper:  blueberry pancakes and blueberry syrup.  Yum!

Building a track.

What a gorgeous day to be outside and play in mom's flower pot.
