Insert attractive children here:
The last picture kind of makes me want to melt. Her eyes are captivating, her scruffy teddy bear is love worn, and I am smitten with the gap in between her teeth.

Is your morning starting out as fantastic as mine??? I hate to say it, but I just let out a HUGE sigh of relief because we sent the kids off to school this morning.
Really it’s bitter sweet. One one hand, I’m sad to see the two older girls leave for most of the day (poor Gwenny is going to have to find a new way to entertain herself), but on the other hand, it will be sooo nice to have them out of the house for most of the day! To quote Mr. Simon (or was it Garfunkel?) Ah… “the sound of SILENCE!”
I don’t know what it is, but it seems like by the end of the summer the girls just can’t stand each other anymore and any little thing sets off an argument. During the school year though, as soon as they get home, they can’t get enough of each other… go figure.
Well, to commemorate the end of summer and the beginning of a new school year, we are offering
Back to School Shoots!
Here’s the deal…
This is a limited time back-to-school version of our SHOOT my Kids photoshoot… with a little twist.

- The 2 shoots will be held on the 19th and 27th of August.
- Each day will have four 20min slots starting at 5:30pm.

- Only $75 per session, 3 kids max.

Oh babies.
I am starting to think little babes are the best to shoot. I have an addiction to their presh little smiles and giggles, oh my! This little cutie pie was NO exception. I could have taken like 400 snaps of her!
I just wanted to share a sneak peek with her mom, so she could crush on her little one! Thanks for letting me hang out with your doll while the light was perfect. It completed my day!

When I was a little girl, I told lies.
Lots of lies :/
Lies about where I found my sister’s ‘lost’ $5
Lies about wetting my pants :(
Lies about if I ate all my dinner. (I would stick a big fat wad of food in my cheek and go spit it out in the toilet. Sneeky, I know…
And a BIG {FAT} whopping lie about jumping off the diving board at Taylor Jr. High’s swimming pool.
There is a good possibility that one day my class at swimming lessons went over to the dive tank of the pool and swam around. We were passing off the ‘water exploration’ requirement and we had to submerge ourselves in deep water. As I looked around I was impressed! Man were those big kids jumping off the diving boards sooooo cool!
And so just possibly my little mind decided that I was one of those cool kids jumping off those springing boards. Stepping off the high dive would be quite a feat at such a young girl. I decided that I was that cool.
So, I went home and told my mom all about it. I may have stretched the truth, just a bit…. as to increase my coolness. I told my mom I jumped off the high dive, nay dove off the high dive.
And. then. my. mom. told. everyone.
Every time she bragged about her brave little daughter, I felt like someone punched me in the gut. I had to stand there and smile through the whole story while my churning stomach was making me want to hurl.
Lying is not always all it is cracked up to be.
Last night I watched with my own two eyes as my little girls jumped off the high dive. I had to make sure I really saw it before I began bragging. I know the way 5 and 7 year old’s minds work! ;)
This awesome couple is looking to adopt an amazing little baby or two. I am pretty sure I would be willing to loan my kids to them everyday around 4pm! ;) But, I guess that just plain mean of me! Chris and Jewel were so so much fun to shoot! Lee and I were cracking up every other minute!

Since we all accompanied our scholarly Dad/husband Lee to his graduation last week and I had the PRIVILEGE of corralling the energy of 4 little kids by myself for 4 hours in the stands at University of Phoenix Stadium… I thought I’d share some of our memorable moments.
Some fun things we got pictures of:
Emerson as happy as could be! *This picture was taken at the beginning of hour one. He hadn’t had his binky stolen yet or had to sit in his chair for 3 hours yet. Note he is still happy ;)
Mr. Tom Brokaw was one of the several speakers. He may have needed to edit his talk to reflect the fact that he was talking to mostly middle aged graduates who had spent a majority of their school time online, not having study groups at bars. *This picture doesn’t do Mr. Brokaw justice… Lee said you could see a trickle from his runny nose on the jumbo tron. Oopsies.
Happy Graduate and Wife *I could still act happy at this point. That is because I had 7 boxes of movie candy in my purse as weaponry. 3 hours into the ceremony I ran out. We might have resorted to drastic measures :/
Lee and I wanted to bring all the family so we could emphasize to our girls the importance of education. We wanted our kids to have the memory of going to their Dad’s graduation. *Maybe next time we’ll just show them a few pictures after the event and I’ll sit BY MYSELF for 4 hours. Ahhhh the silence.
Oh Delia. Before we had even left the parking lot Delia (who had been wearing Lee’s graduation hat) announced that she maybe shouldn’t have been chewing gum while she chewed on Lee’s graduation tassel. FOR THE LOVE!! Lee’s symbol of 4 years of hard work is ruined before we even leave the parking lot?!
Gwen looked super cute in her peep toed zebra shoes. *By the end of the ceremony I had caved in. Gwen was hanging out in Emerson’s car seat eating candy and sucking on his extra binky. My 2 big girls were watching a movie on my phone and my perfect dream of 4 cute little kids cheering on their graduate Dad was out the window! I had seriously lost it!
4 kids for 4 hours is WAY TOO LONG!! Well, at a graduation ceremony that is!
Lesson learned :)
