Our Second Anniversary....

Today Paul and I are celebrating our second anniversary... Two years has gone by so quickly!

In the past two years we've been to Las Vegas several times to visit Paul's brothers, travelled to Lake Tahoe on our honeymoon and decided that one day we'd really LOVE to live there, sold Paul's "bachelor pad" house, bought our first house together, bought new cars, completely gutted and renovated our kitchen, redecorated several rooms in our home and got pregnant.. Whew! No wonder the time went so fast!

I wouldn't change anything about the last two years or about our relationship (except, of course, to add to our family!) and I love my husband more and more every day. He may not be an overtly romantic man but the little things he does for me sure add up to show me how much he truly cares... He (almost always!) listens to me, he laughs when I need to be laughed at and comforts me when I'm upset, he lets me park in our garage even though he leaves the house in the cold and dark every morning, he makes sure I take my vitamins every day, he does most of the laundry and a lot of the cooking, and I could go on and on... In short, he's the yin to my yang, my perfect match, and was TOTALLY worth waiting for!

I'll end this post with my very favorite series of pictures from our wedding day which show just how happy I was to be marrying this wonderful man....

Happy Anniversary Sweetie.. I love you always...

What Winter Looks Like...

(Welcome to anyone arriving here from Blue Zebra Photography !) (Oh! And this is post # 500 on Ye Olde Blogge. Wow!) I mentioned earlier that I'm participating in two different photography projects this year with other members of the Bloom Forum . The second project I'm participating in are monthly photos that relate to a certain theme or word. For January, the theme is "Winter." We've had an odd winter so far here in Massachusetts. Hardly any snow at all and over the weekend it was actually in the 50's which is pretty unusual. We did have a brief snowstorm last week though and while LP and Eliza were cozied up on the couch together I wandered around and took a few photos of the scene. I love how cozy it is in our house when it's snowy out and wanted to capture some images that conveyed that...

February: What Shadow Looks Like

(Welcome if you’re coming from Suzanne O'Brien Studio in Northern California!) This month’s group photography theme was “shadow.” I’ll admit, I had a bit of a hard time with this one. We’re in the middle of the February doldrums around these parts, and while the sun does shine from time to time it’s cold and blustery and damp most days. It was tough to get motivated and creative about this, but that’s the whole point of the challenge! The kids and I were in the living room one afternoon and LP was lining his toys up on the windowsill. The (frigid) afternoon sun was pouring in and I realized that there was a sort of lightbox effect. I enlisted LP’s help in photographing some of his favorite toys (and one of Eliza’s) so he was the “stylist” for this little photo shoot. I think if we ever have a dedicated play room I might frame some of these photos for the walls! Sophie the Giraffe: Army Guys: Captain America (I never noticed how r...

10 on 10: January

This year I've decided to participate in two monthly photography projects along with some of the other members of Bloom , a photography forum I'm part of. The first of these projects is a 10 on 10: Ten photos taken during one day or event, documenting that day or event, and posted on the tenth of the month. Everyone's entries are posted in a blog circle- you can follow the links from blog to blog and see everyone's contribution. (And WELCOME! to any of you who might have come here from Rachel McCalley Photography !) I decided to use the 10 on 10 in January to document a typical day now that I'm a full-time stay at home mom. A few caveats: I neglected to take any photos of the morning which was spent at the pediatrician as it was a rather negative experience (more on that in another upcoming post). I also neglected to notice that my camera was set on jpeg instead of raw (perhaps a child was messing with my settings? Am not sure wha...
