5 Month Pictures

Silas and Zoe turned 5 months today, so it was picture day! We decided we will probably get some professional pictures done next month, so you won't have to deal with our amateur photo shoot next time :)

The babies were particularly angelic when we were getting ready this morning,



Daddy provided some good entertainment while Mommy finalized the outfits.

As usual with two babies, everything is quite a production!


Zoe's outfit was less complicated than Silas' (damn overalls), so we had some downtime to hang out.


S&Z needed lots of re-positioning now that they are moving so much!

First they slid far down on their butts,


Zoe fairly quickly said "I'm outta here",


But Silas convinced her to come back for a few more pictures - they are good pals, you know ;)


Zoe wasn't completely convinced it was a good idea.


She was more interested in playing with her dress (well, it IS a pretty dress!),


And Daddy is infinitely more interesting to look at than the camera.


More rearrangements were required,




And some hijinx ensured...



Here is our favorite "5 month picture" that will go in their baby books! I think you can see just a glimpse of their emerging personalities...

Silas' Blog

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor... Silas recently read a book called "Starting Your Own Blog", and now he is bound and determined for us to let him start his own blog! We convinced him that he should start out by drafting content and a posting calendar. We made templates this morning and he wrote his first "post" today!

Auntie Tracy's Visit

Tracy is one of my best friends, but I haven't seen her in person in two years ! This means that I hadn't met her daughter, Brynn, who turns 2 in June. I was sooooooooo excited when I found out that Tracy and Brynn would be visiting Tracy's sister, Timery this weekend. We decided to meet at Mall Tots  again so that the kids could run around and we could catch up. It's a 45 minute drive and it was a beautiful day, so the kids were hunkered down with sunglasses, snack and stuffed animals on the ride up. Zoe and Brynn initially got acquainted in the bouncy house, And then Zoe pushed her around in a car.   Of course my kids (and husband!) had plenty of distraction with the video games too. We packed up the kids and then had lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings before heading back home. Timery and Tracy are like sisters to me. What a fantastic day!!!  

The Best of Project 366

2012 is coming to a close and I have officially completed Project 366 ! I managed to take and post and keep track of 365 photos out of 366 total days this year. I only missed one day and it was for a pretty good cause . Believe me, these pictures don't take themselves. I shot just under 7000 pictures this year. Once I got an iPhone in March all of the pictures were taken with my phone (~ 5500 pictures!). The camera on the iPhone is really good, I always have it with me, and I like playing around with the filters and other editing tools available in photography apps like Instagram, Camera+, Diptic, and Gridditor. Since I have put so much time, love and energy into Project 366 I thought I should select a few "Best Of's". I had a great time putting this together, and I hope you enjoy these highlights as well!
