In the blue room

Thursday, September 12th, 2013 by Jen

I had fun in cape cod in our bedroom, dramatic light to say the least. I was trying to capture a range of emotions.

Early morning bed photoshoot

And she’s off!

Tuesday, September 10th, 2013 by Jen

Josie had her first day of kindergarten yesterday and she said she liked it! This is literally the best picture I could get of her that morning though, somehow this expression was fixed on her face. Big day!

She remarked today though that they haven’t ‘really’ taught her anything yet. Except a new song about fish with their hands in their pants pockets.

Celia loves the big swings at Josies school!

In their native habitat…

Friday, September 6th, 2013 by Jen

This is how our house looks on a typical day. In their native habitat you will see remnants of previous reading, doll house and doll dress up. Currently on exhibit you will see a game of ballet doctor. The ballerina seems to have injured herself and gone to the doctors. The hotwheel cars are somewhere, probably packed up in one of those two bags.

Visiting great-grandma

Thursday, September 5th, 2013 by Jen

A few weeks ago, before our vacation we went to visit my grandmother (my mom’s mom) and today we went again to celebrate her birthday, she’ll be 95 years old in a few more days! She got to meet Ewan and hold him and she enjoyed him very much.

But she thinks we should have spelled his name with a U, since it is pronounced with a U. And clearly I should have put socks on him today when it was in the 70’s and he was wearing an ankle to wrist covering outfit. And his ears are too big (“like not normal big” she says in a whisper). And I shouldn’t be letting the girls touch him. And I wipe him wrong. But yep that’s my Bubie! 🙂 She can’t believe I have three kids, but she heartily enjoyed the cupcakes and lipstick we brought her.

We’re back from Cape Cod

Monday, September 2nd, 2013 by Jen

We’ve been gone for two weeks to cape cod. Over 1000 pictures I’m trying to work through but we had some nice lazy days enjoying the pool, the sun, the beach and each other. We ate a lot of ice cream cones.
