Good morning.

How beautiful is this? I think I'm obsessed with the sunrise's here in Colorado.

Beautiful eyes

My friend Amelia, who is really into photography, posted a photo on her blog of her little girl looking down. I LOVED her photo and was really inspired to try it myself. (Thanks for the inspiration Amelia!)

So here is my take on it... I would kill for his lashes. Seriously. If you click on the photo it will make it bigger. In case you are interested!

Then Andrew looked up at me and BAM! Money shot. Well, at least I think so! His eyes are absolutely beautiful! I know, I know. I'll stop now but I'm just a proud mama. I love when I take photos that evoke emotion and for me this is one of those photos I can't stop staring at. You can click on this one too for a bigger photo - you can actually see my reflection in his eyes. :-)

"Mommy, yook at my face!"

Earlier today Andrew was creating an art album with some markers. I usually don't use markers because they are ... well, a mess! But the colors are so bright and we have them so why not use them? I left the room for a couple minutes and remembered this is why we DON'T use them!

He was so proud, yelling at me from the other room "Mommy, yook at my face!" When he ran up to me my mouth dropped open and then he said "Pretty cool, huh?" I just busted up laughing and of course grabbed the camera. Check out his red lipstick. He did a pretty good job.

We did have a "talk" later and I think while I was scrubbing his face he realized he doesn't want to do it again. Thank goodness for washable markers! Although they don't completely come off but it's definitely better than permanent. :-)

SNOW DAY!

What a surprise to wake up to this...

I had heard grumblings of snow but didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it wouldn't happen. I was so excited when I woke up and it was snowing... A LOT! Well, we only ended up with about 6 inches but it was the perfect amount to play in. :-)

I love these pics of Andrew throwing the snow up in the air. Not sure if I like them in color or black and white better. Hmm...

Go Kenna!

Yesterday Andrew and Blake went to one of Makenna's swim meets. Andrew had fun cheering her on and playing with Matthew. I was sick so I stayed home and got some much needed rest. Blake appeased me and took the camera. Here are some pics...
