The Fog Rolled In

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

The other night I was in the middle of a diaper drama . . .

I ran outside to get some wipes out of the car . . .

And there was this lovely, ethereal fog shrouding my street.

An hour later we were downtown.

Too late for the fog I’m afraid.

But there were still good shots to be had as the city lights reflected off the low hanging clouds.

Everett – 3 Months

Nothing like having a sick baby up all night to put a kaibash on the motivation for the day!

Well, it’s not that I haven’t done anything.

Just not anything particularly productive.

Look at this little guy. These are his 3 month pictures. He is YUMMY.

Utah Wedding Photography
Custom Wedding Invitations

Friday, January 8th, 2010

So I was working on – you know – some pictures.

O and Cal were in the next room, playing house. Olivia LOVES to play house. Really, who doesn’t?

Then I heard her instructing Cal: “Lift up your shirt.”

My ears perked and my brow furrowed. Where is she going with this?

Then: “Now put baby Hobbes up to your tummy and he will eat you.”

Bah!

Later we had a discussion about how Cal will never EVER nurse anyone.

Boys aren’t so lucky. So I’m told.

A week ago I did the engagement pictures for these two.

Yesterday Leslee (babe in pink sweater – see above) and I sat down and designed a custom wedding invitation. She really liked a 5×5 6 panel accordion card. I thought this was great because then she gets to use lots of her pictures! :D

Ah me! Love love love.
