February Photos

Well, the month is not really over yet... but while I had some photos available I thought I'd post them.

You'll see we took a family adventure last weekend out west down VA Rt 66. We we hoping to go to the Rt. 11 Potato Chip Factory - but it moved. We wound up at Dinosaurland (who knew that existed out in the middle of nowhere) and then an afternoon in Winchester, VA.

Enjoy!

And.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY G'MA!

Assorted Photos from January 2009

Here's a web album with photos from January.

I think this web album method may be simpler for me to post... and therefore allow me to post more frequently. The trick will be for me to actually take more pictures!

Owen's DELUXE Birthday Cake

Can you believe this cake?! One of my first doula clients is also a custom cake decorator. In exchange for my doula services, she offered to make a cake for me. This is her beautiful and creative work.

The entire piece is sugar-based. It was a real hit -- with kids chanting "cake! cake!" at the table side :) And, it was not only amazing to look at - it was also delicious to eat!

Owen's 4th Bday: A Kid's Photo Journal

These are photos from Owen's 4th birthday party -- taken on Owen's own digital camera (thanks Uncle JT). I am not sure who took any of these photos, but I am sure whoever it was was no older than 6 years old! Enjoy!

Uncle JT is a talented artist. Among his crafts is photography. I link to his blog on the sidebar. In his blog he posts a new photo (or more) each day.

Last weekend, he and his Mom (who is visiting from out of state -- no, he doesn't still live with his Mom) agree to watch the kids while Scott & I went out for a date.

Check his blog for some amazing photos he took of Owen & Anna: http://eyedewstuff.blogspot.com/

Thanks JT!

Anna's 1st Haircut

I really want Anna's hair to grow out. But, I am haunted by Owen's mullet... so I agreed to get Anna's hair "trimmed." Really, she was a mess with her hair in her eyes all the time. Here's documentation:







Owen got his hair cut too. The lollipop is the evidence, if not the scowl!
