Half of me...

and half of Craig, yet they are my whole heart.

Happy Birthday Carly!

Today our best friends' little daughter, Carly, turned one!

Aaron (5/22/07)

Oh boy do I love this kid. He is SUCH a good baby! Check out those new teeth of his!

Alexander Scott

Biter Biscuit

Aaron tried his first biter biscuit today. He seemed quite fascinated with the mess it made. I quickly remembered why I didn't buy these more frequently for Robin and Alex.

My baby and his baby

Robin and Alexander

We walked to get coffee this morning. Both Robin and Alex decided they needed to have a kids hot chocolate. Robin wanted to smile for the camera and well...Alex...he just wanted to ham it up!

At least somebody thinks mommy is funny!

This afternoon I was being silly with Aaron and was trying to get a picture of this scrunchy-nose thing he does. (He wouldn't cooperate, of course). Alex had enough of me taking pictures of little brother so he came and tackled me! I was holding my camera up in the air to keep the boys from grabbing it and accidentally took the last one!

Pictures in "P" mode

First attempts at using a manual setting on my new camera.

1st trip to the ER and why I cuss when I drive

A little bit of sibling rough-housing led to Alex's first trip to the Emergency Room this morning. Oy vey!

This traffic is the sole (Seoul...hee hee) reason I swear. The cars headed to the left are seven across. The cars on the right are five across. Both are on a three-lane road. Nice.

Canon XTi ... I am in love!

I am officially in new camera bliss and am on my photography honeymoon with my new Canon Rebel XTi. I LOVE it! Craig sure surprised me last night with this beaut! After reading the manual I had a grand time taking photos all afternoon. The kids are keeping me quite busy tonight so these two are straight off the camera -- no chance to edit at all. I can't wait to learn how to use the manual settings!

Bumps along the way

Aaron has started crawling and sitting up. He does pretty well for the most part. However, when he is sleepy he gets a bit woozy. Poor little guy toppled over, head first, into my coffee table a few minutes ago. Six months old and he's got his first bruised noggin. Perhaps with having an older sister and brother I should be thankful it took this long for him to get one!

Aaron

My baby Aaron is newly 6 months old. Time goes by so fast. He just woke up from his nap and was holding his little blankie. He is so sweet during these semi-sleepy times. Once he was comfortably full I set him down on the floor near our window. He was still too sleepy to smile.

I am really working on trying to be conscious of my light sources. I can not stand to use a flash! Well, at least not with the camera I am using now. It always seems to wash my pictures out.
