Summertime

This summer has been flying by so fast. I almost feel transported back to the days when I was in school and it seemed like no time at all passed between being let out of school and having to go back to that day to day drudgery.

My little guy has been in such demand, I feel I barely get to see him and when I do, I'm working. :P So there's the negative view on matters. Here's the positive. My baby boy is so well loved and liked that people find it a joy to be with him. And my photography business has actually been busy enough recently to keep me very much on my toes.

In other news in the land of bittersweet. Spencer and I are no longer homeowners. We closed on our old home this past Friday and have finally closed the chapter on that "not so wise" decision in our lives. The weight lifted off of our shoulders is lovely. Now to set this house back to rights after our last failed yardsale. :P Hey, $16 is better than nothing right?

Thank you all for sticking with me through the tumultuous times. Do take care, all of you.

More Fun in the Sun and Waterplay

This is my favorite shot of my fearless little man holding on tight to his daddy's hand and to his Misa's hand as they get ready to jump in "together"

I took so many photos of our time at the pool a few weeks ago that I felt that I must share some more with you. Since this was a huge milestone for my little man, as I discussed here, I took quite a few..ahem...a LOT of shots. I had it set for multiple exposures. I couldn't miss a moment of action...or his hilarious expressions.

What you see below is a succession of shots that I took of him as he took a running leap into the pool. I love his many expressions ranging from what looks like fear in the first shot to pure glee. {{SIGH}} Good times, good times.
Here we see little man with eyelashes any girl would kill for. Makes me feel sorry for all those little girls who grow up to apply fake eyelashes. Isn't it odd how little boys seem to always be blessed with the greatest eyelashes.

By this point, Liam had gotten a bit tired of having his picture taken and went so far as to hide behind people before finally running for the back door. Still, I am glad I got this shot of his CRAZY pool hair.
