kyle smiles - more

i was lucky enough to again get to watch/play with kyle. he's so smiley and so frickin cute!! i got to snap pictures of him outdoors this time (which is great; i definitely need natural light when i shoot) and i feel good about the pictures i got of him this time. i feel as if they are really him and his smile!!he would go above this bar and say "cheese" then would go below it and "cheese." back and forth many times! it was so cute and hilarious!!

this is his big cheese face; you can see the emphasis on the "eee's" in his eyebrows :) and you can see his alfalfa hair sticking up

such a happy boy!!

he is so easy to watch and so fun to play with, especially for a little boy! he's very ticklish and loves to play with trucks and blocks. he's very particular in his block building but then loves to knock them down as well! such a good boy!!!

avacados & guac

i used to hate guacamole. well at least i would say i hated it; i don't think i had ever even tried it but the look of it grossed me out enough to say i hated it. however, not too long ago i finally tried some homemade guac and i fell in love!! i love it soo soo much!! every time i'm at the grocery store i have to snag a few avacados. i make my own "homemade" guac from it. meaning i mix the avacado meat with a little bit of salsa. :)

in having the avacados i've also noticed how cute the shell bowls are once i've cleaned them out!! if ever i was to have a dinner party or something of the sort where i might serve guacamole, i would definitely want to serve it in these!! :) i just really like them

spring time

spring has sprung. and actually here in minnesota it has been feeling more like the beginning of summer with the temps being so high. i can't complain about it because it's been gorgeous but the 40-50 degree weather is my favorite and we seemed to have skipped right over it... hopefully it'll come back and sooner rather then later... this past weekend i layed outside and read and it was so beautiful i had to snap a few pics.

with all the rain we've been getting the grass is finally green!!

although the rain has also brought the pollen which means my allergies are in full force. hopefully they'll be gone soon!!

puppies too

not only do i love babies and baby time but i love dogs and dog/puppy sitting too!! i got this pleasure in early april for some good friends while they went to the bon jovi concert!! my little baby boz (my favorite dog in the world and the best dog!!) came over along with his new brother, titan. titan in a chesapeake bay retriever (a chocolate lab look-a-like but with a different coat/fur that makes them even more of a water dog then labs). he is 12 weeks in these pictures and is gonna be a big boy!! :) he has giant paws and is super tall but not used to his long legs yet. :] he is really cute and has crazy light green eyes that look kinda exotic with his brown fur.

here are pics of the brothers playing in our backyard.

they're about the same size. for now...

boz tends to be in control as of now; like the big brother. and he's the one who will always get the ball and bring it back to me. titan just kind of waits for boz to get it then tries to take it outta his mouth :)

i was trying to get a picture of titan's face and eyes but this is the best i got because he kept moving :) would have been a good pic but the camera focused on the grass instead of titan..

and my little baby! and his wonderful ears!! i just love him!!

lil eva!!

eva is 3 months now and is still sooo cute!! she is coo-ing and smiling and soo wiggly! i was thrilled to get to watch her for a night while manda and johnny took in a wild game! she just makes me smile!!awe. look at that smile

such a sweet face!!

i adore her profile!!

and eva likes to watch wheel of fortune too!! :)

mckenna rae

i cannot believe how big and old mckenna is already; seems like just yesterday she was a tiny baby. i got to watch her for a bit in march and snapped a few pics of her. she is sooo cute and looks just like her daddy. she's still very independent and talks really well. and loves to watch her shows :)look at that sweet, serious face!

so enthralled in her show :)

still concentrating...

march babies :)

wow... not a single blog post in march. needless to say life has gotten busier for this girl; and that's a very good thing!! i am now up to 2 part time jobs which is 3 days a week. i am enjoying it although could use for it to be a bit busier but it'll get there! anywho, i still have been getting my baby time (thank goodness!!) so here are some of the pics i snapped up of meg's twins in march.

meg and i took summer and the babies to a children's festival at an elementary school near meg's house. it was fun and let both the twins and summer get a lot of energy out: WIN!! :) here are the twinkies in the mini jump castle. they loved it although don't quite have the jumping thing down as they're just beginning to walk.

my little buddy! he's getting so big and man-like. oh and he scrunches up his nose when he smiles big now; it's THE cutest thing!!! you can kinda see it here.
his bottom lip kills me!! i love it!! and it makes his sad face sooo unbearable!! and so cute!!

the babies are obsessed with the dog kennel. they will play with the door and even both crawl in there and lay down. meg has hinted that maybe somedays she should just close and lock the door while they're in there for a small break ;)

oh and their hair is getting so long. tyler has a blonde baby mullet and skye has the cutest curls in the back!!

they have grown even from these pictures... so i'm sure i'll be taking new ones of them here in april; i'll be sure to share. especially since the weather's nice out and we can be outside where the lighting makes shooting so much easier!!
