Hat and Shades!

Just some fun with a hat and sunglasses (and a paci).

Fun with Naomi, Andrew and Madeline

We tried to get Madeline to pose for us
so we could practice some lighting techniques.
Shes cute not matter what, but we still
need some practice with lighting.

Madeline likes to hold on tightly to her
snacks!


Wednesday was Andrews birthday. Naomi made a very
yummy dinner,


And a yummy birthday cake!


Madeline helped Andrew with the blowing out of the candles:)

Wii at Popeye's!

We had a fun evening at my Dad's playing
on their new Wii. They have been bowling
alot and tonight they learned how to play
tennis. Here, everyone is practicing their
baseball skills.

Worn out after a night of sports!

Practice with Steve

After building a large soft box for me, Steve let me practice

using it on him. This is one of my first attempts. I have already

learned that I didn't have the angle correct but, I still think he

looks nice:) Thanks for being a good sport Steve.

A Visit with a Sick Baby:(

I have spent the last couple of days with our sick
little Madeline. She went to the Dr. Tuesday after
having a high fever and cough. It seems she just has
a bad cold thankfully. As you can see from this
first picture, she is starting to feel better:)

She really wanted to touch the keys on my computer, but

she was a good girl and just got real close.

But it was fun thinking about it!

She had fun dancing with "The Wiggles"

She was feeling a little green, but this green is just from her

tunnel.

She's so sweet even when she's sick:)
