Taken in Rocky Mountain National Park in CO, this was the perfect capture for ‘Woods’.
I love this tree! We have some Aspen on the way up to Canada, and I always mean to stop and take some photographs each season, but then never seem to get around to it when the kids are in the car with me 🙂
Dear Son,
You are really exerting your independence lately. ‘No’ is a word we tend to hear often 😉 You like to try and do things by yourself, take the stool and reach for your own water, walk ahead of everyone and peel your own banana. But even though you are pretty set in your ways right now, you still like to come around for some giant bear hugs.
You are starting to talk more conversationally now. Stringing works together for short sentences. Like how you heard the loud truck outside, or saw the black birdie on the deck.
The weather is also getting warmer now, so we have been outside as much as possible. We’ll go for walks around the block or plant flowers together or just run around the backyard. This is going to be a really fun summer.

Dear Daughter,
This month we’ve been taking advantage of the warmer weather. We planted some tomato seeds and will watch them grow until we can pick them later this summer. You also had your first Gymnastics “show”. Your grandparents came to watch you do your routine.
Some of your favorites this month are:
“Fall seven times, stand up eight.”

Had the pleasure of photographing this little cutie yesterday 🙂
Such a happy baby!
Vegas is most spectacular at night. There is an electric energy you just don’t feel during the daytime.
It wouldn’t be a trip to the strip without the urban! Perfect place to complete this week’s assignment! So many images to choose from, but something about the grungy look of Harley Davidson and this cool restaurant, spoke to me as a great representation of the Vegas ‘urban’ scene.
I love the little details of my babies. When they are older, I know I am going to be grateful I took those close up shots of their faces, hands and tiny feet 🙂
One of Sophie’s favorite things to do is snuggle in mommy and daddy’s bed before we start her bedtime routine. She will get under the covers with her ipad and we all have some quiet time.
The ‘Kids Were Here Project’ was inspired by Ketti Photography. To document the everyday. Evidence of my kids’ true personalities, their ideas, their mistakes, their messes and their fun. Everything they left behind. If you listen closely, you can still hear the laughter, see the smiles and imagine what they were thinking before they left what was now this image.
One Thursday I told my daughter we were going to visit Grandma and Grandpa on the weekend. On that Friday morning I woke up to her selecting her outfits for the trip. Later, during breakfast, I heard her in my Son’s room. I peeked in on her and she’d also picked out his outfits as well as some swimmer diapers 🙂
She did a pretty good job of coordinating 🙂
For more ‘Kids Were Here‘ check out my friend Christina Guzman‘s blog!
So the bad habit in our house these days is the iPad. The kids love it. Probably too much. And I admit, I am guilty of letting them play on it to get a couple minutes peace. They love playing Angry Birds 🙂
