Attitude...

Tomorrow LP turns 3 (!!!) and I'll be back with a sappy post all about how he lights up our lives and is so loving and sweet.  Today though, I thought I'd share some photos from the past few years that perhaps I haven't shared before - some that are just plain funny, and some that show a bit more of his feisty side...
When LP was just a few days old Gabby thought he'd be a tasty snack.
Dachshund says "yum!"

At 2 weeks he somewhat resembled a funny little troll.
December 5 "Photo Shoot"

At 3 weeks he was very good at letting us know when he was angry.

He was still good at that at 2 months...
1-7-2009 7-59-13 PM6

But had also mastered the "Mom - you're soooo annoying" expression...
1-19-2009 2-11-39 PM24

And at 3 months he'd moved on to the "maybe if I close my eyes they'll go away" trick.

LP at 5 months knew how to shoot evil death rays of disdain from his eyes....

And kept practicing the look at 5 months.

At 5 months LP finally started to realize that someone was stinking up the place pretty frequently...

And at 6 months decided to blame the dog.

Life as an 8 month old was simply exhausting...

But things perked up at 11 months when LP discovered Mom and Dad's stash of booze.

As a 13 month old Little Paul enjoyed his first bites of crab rangoon....
12-12-2009 8-19-24 PM_0026

And at 16 months declared his hatred for hats with pompoms...
3-27-2010-11-54-51-AM_0070

And his love for his Hugh Hefner robe.
3-27-2010-4-04-20-PM_0086

At 17 months he became adept at sticking out his tongue...
5-21-2010 7-18-02 PM_0061

And also at using it to devour ice cream cones.

At 19 months Little Paul let his goofy side run wild...
2010-07-21 17-25-26_0027

And kept it up at 20 months...
2010-08-29 12-08-57_0005

and 22 months.
2010-09-24 13-14-45_0114

When he was 26 months old, LP discovered the joy of paint smeared on hands and face...
2011-01-07 14-20-17_0057wm

And the joy of jumping on the couch.
2011-02-13 20-33-29_0042wm

At 28 months he preferred a wind-swept look...
2011-03-18 18-02-51_0140wm

Which was somewhat cleaner than the chocolate ice cream covered look he preferred at 32 months,
2011-07-02 20-05-28_0021wm

Which he alternated with his tried and true paint-covered look.
2011-07-29 15-55-05_0017wm

At 33 months the goofiness shown through once again...
2011-08-03 16-22-19_0065wm
2011-08-21 15-02-00_0037wm

And has continued through 34 months...

2011-09-02 18-46-48_0011wm
2011-09-05 13-13-02_0086wm

Until today...
2011-11-13 14-46-37_0026wm
No matter the mood though, we always love our stubborn/cranky/silly/goofy/angry/dirty little man...

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!

10 on 10: August

Here's August's 10 on 10!  It was a quiet day at home with just a trip to the playground to shake things up!  Thought I'd try something new by adding captions to each photo- what do you think?  For some reason they look a little blurry to  me- will have to figure that out for next time! Now head on over to Kate Suzanne Photography in Asheville for her 10 on 10!

A Bit of Sewing….

I’ve been on a sewing kick lately- made a few things for Eliza that I thought I’d share (of course, I also have a list about a mile long of things I really need to get working on for Christmas, but bumped them all to make these little, totally not needed but too cute to resist, pieces…). First up is another Geranium Dress from the pattern by Made by Rae .  The pattern is for a sleeveless dress or one with cap sleeves but I really wanted long sleeves so I drafted my own and they worked out perfectly!  The fabric is a super soft baby corduroy.  I made a mistake and sewed the skirt on the wrong way- instead of picking it all apart though I decided to just cover my seam (which should have been on the inside- whoops, distracted!) with a  fabric band.  I used the same fabric for the lining in the bodice. On the patch pockets I stitched Eliza’s name- it says “Eliza” on one pocket and “Rose” on the other.. I wish I’d used the polkadot pattern for the pockets as I thi...
