Catching up...

I have been so bad about blogging images. Of course, I've not been so great at that whole "picking up the camera" thing lately, either! Pregnancy has worn me out. Baby's arrival is planned a week from tomorrow, though, so I expect there to be an influx of photos after that! I think what I'll do is go back and create a few posts that are dated correctly. Only a few months behind here!

In the meantime, here's one of Kate from just a few days ago. I just love her soulful stare!

kate in a box

Caroline lasted about 10 minutes. Kate stayed in the box for a good hour at least. Maybe longer. Pretty light/shadows and a confined subject meant it was time to pull out the camera!

girls' first days of school 2014

Kate allowed me to take ONE shot of her, so I made sure of my settings, and snapped ONE snap. ;) Kate's first day of Pre-K (Sept. 3) -

Caroline missed the first day of school since she had strep throat.

She wasn't exactly cooperative for a photo, but these crack me up! Caroline's first day of Preschool 3s (September 5)-

just caroline and a balloon

Just Caroline and a balloon. And her mismatched PJs. So joyful. So her!

Caroline @ 3 years, 3 months

Just before school started, Caroline's teacher requested photos of the class. I used it as a good opportunity to shoot a new portrait of our little goose. Here she is at 3  1/4 years old -

At Meet the Teacher night, we found her cute face at the block center. So cute!

7 favorites on 7 - august

Here is this month's hodge-podge post of 7 favorites! As you'll see, most of our outings involve swimsuits and water - gotta beat that heat! ;) Please follow our blog circle around to Kristy Dooley Photography. Her girls remind me so much of mine!

Blew through a couple of rolls of film as the girls played at the "beach" at Little Elm...

**Switched to Ektar 100 film (still basic scans from the FIND lab) -- the colors are MUCH different. I prefer the Portra 160!

7 favorites on 7 - july

In an effort to get back to blogging, some ClickinMoms friends and I are starting a new monthly blog circle, "7 favorites on 7" (posting on the 7th of each month). Please be sure to click through the circle - you will not want to miss the gorgeous work these ladies share! Next up in the circle is Sarah Vaughn of Story Lane Photography.
