Day Two Hundred Fifty!

Owen seemed to enjoy himself at the playground tonight, just had to keep Gavin from swinging him too high and fast. It was the first time in the big swing, he looked alternately so small and so big. And his shoes...totally worth all the trouble it took getting high top chucks on a wiggly six-month old, don't you think??

Day Two Hundred Forty-Nine.

Farewell old friend! I sold my first dslr to one of my best friends. I will miss it but I know it's getting a fabulous home and I hope she loves it as much as I did. :) That camera was the start of a fabulous love for capturing all the moments in my family's life, that eventually led to my wonderful business. And, I really did tear up, boxing it up for her. (Dork!) It was good to me and taught me so much about photography and even myself :) Can't wait to see what you do with it Anne :)

O getting a little "airplane" time with Daddy before he had to leave again. The little giggle that went with it was just plain adorable :)

Day Two Hundred Forty-Six.

I actually needed an umbrella today, and it barely cracked 80 degrees. Wow! I enjoyed a kid free outing this afternoon thanks to my sweet hubby who is visiting for the holiday weekend :)

Day Two Hundred Forty-Five.

In case I need a sous chef or two, they are willing and ready. {Funny thing was two minutes before I grabbed the camera for this shot, I had the big kids and the dogs all under my feet while I made pizza...we were just missing Owen (and Mama was about to lose her mind with all the help/taste testers!)}

Day Two Hundred Forty-Four.

Park a digger next to our house and they will come...The big kids admired this thing allllll during dinner and so I said if they ate everything on their plates, they could go see it. (Let's hope they leave the darn thing there for awhile, it was great bribery!)

Chasing her shadow home...
