Has anyone seen my nap?

After a busy weekend....we are all exhausted! Peyton has refused to nap all weekend, leading us to get nothing done around this house. She must not have gotten the memo that we are having a party for her this weekend and need to CLEAN! Saturday we went to visit our favorite people - Suzi, Neal and Aidan. Peyton was so great with Shamrock, their Dalmatian, and I was very impressed! She played with all of Aidan's toys while I took some pics (before Aunt Suzi killed me!). We then went on the new swing set they have. I think Suzi is still recovering from all the climbing! Sunday I took Peyton to the Gap outlet to buy her clothes for her Bday while Matt did the yard. This kid has to have the best wardrobe! She then begged me to take her to Target! How funny is she? Still ... no nap! So I am off to bed but wanted to share the only 2 pics I edited. I can't believe my baby is turning 2!!! She looks like such a big girl in this new pic. Also - don't you just love baby drool??

Baby Robert

Here are some more of the session I did for the 2 cuties below. This little boy was so good! He loved to look at my camera, and when he feel asleep - he didn't move! The last one just cracks me up. Oh and yes - he gave me the finger! Guess he was over me!

Cousins: Sneak Peak

I was lucky to photograph cousins this weekend. They were the cutest, sweetest babies! I truly enjoyed myself - and had a lot of laughs! I am so happy with the way they came out. I finally am getting my style to show in my pictures. I will edit more this week and post them.

Happy Easter

Someone got spoiled for Easter! I think I got a little carried away this year! This picture doesn't even do it justice - she got TONS of stuff! Peyton woke up so excited to see if the Easter Bunny came. We put "bunny paw prints" on the carpet - but Matt must have thought it was a mammoth bunny that came to our house with the size he did! Peyton was amazed that the Easter Bunny left a trail. She found all of her Easter eggs and played with all of her new toys. We all had a great day ..... Happy Easter!

Easter Eggs

Saturday we colored eggs and had a blast! Peyton was so into what colors she wanted and helping us out. I think she got some ideas from the Easter Beagle because she tried to bite into the eggs with the shell on! She was so proud of herself. I love that she is so excited about holidays now...makes it that much better!

Skinny Cribbing...

Peyton has a new obsession with getting undressed when she goes to bed. For the past 4 nights we have found her naked in her crib. Sometimes she is sleeping, other times laughing at us. We even got her dressed while she was sleeping - and in her sleep she undressed again while we watched! I now have to watch the video monitor to see what she is doing and run in as soon as the shirt comes off. She laughs and tells me she wants to be naked! There is never shortage of laughs in our house and we love her for it! We had parent-teacher conferences last week and were so happy with what we heard. She is doing more than anyone in her class! Her teacher said she was the only one that didn't have a list of things to work on. Yes it sounds like I am bragging because I am! It was such a moment for Matt and I. To hear our little girl is "the smartest and funniest kid in the class" should make us feel good!

Yes she is in a bowl - Yes she is on my kitchen table and this continued for quite some time!

Aunt Suzi bought her this umbrella. Thanks to her we now have many years of bad luck!

Happy St. Patty's Day!

Today is St. Patty's day - we all wore green and had corn beef leftovers. I wanted to share a new little friend of Peyton's. Aunt Kathy bought Peyton the cutest Irish Piggy and she is in love with him. She has a thing with money in banks - she doesn't get that from Matt or myself! We hope you all enjoy your St. Patty's day!

"...With every kiss, you make me fall in love..."

Another sick weekend in our house! We can't get rid of these horrible colds! We can not wait for winter to be over. Peyton is still sick and going to the Dr this afternoon. My poor girl has had the worst cold and now a reaction to her measles shot. Matt took this pic of us this weekend (I think he finally gets how hard it is to meter a shot and get it in focus - since this one is not!) but I love it!
