118/365 Both boys together..and looking at me!

I didn't get a photo in today, but I did take a lot throughout the day yesterday, so I'm posting from then. It's rare for me to get a photo of them together that isn't super awkward, and even more rare if they are both in focus (even soft focus).  I just wish the color of the walls in this photo was not so close to their skin color...I think the b/w conversion helped, but still.

Maybe even his hand looks different in his brother's room?  I dunno.

112/365 Comin' at ya

So here's my photo for the day, but I also thought I'd show you a funny series of Baby A, who is suddenly very interested in my camera.  Everytime I get my camera out now he charges me, full speed, ready to lick my lens. Taking his photo just got a whole lot more challenging!

108/365 Butternut Squash

Today I made some butternut squash baby food for Baby A, but took these photos before putting it in the oven.

105/365 Tiger Mask

It was "share a valentine" day today at preschool and D came home and sorted through his cards and loot of candy, stickers, and this tiger mask.

101/365

Around the time I was thinking that I should take some photos for today, I slipped and fell down the stairs.  I think I may have bruised my tailbone and while I grabbed for the handrail (I missed) my hand hit one of the metal spindles in between my pinkie and ring finger, and I already have a bruise on my ring finger just above my wedding ring.  I am so thankful I wasn't carrying Baby A!  Nor did I do any damage to my wedding ring. (Just my hand..ha!)  I'm supposed to resume teaching Pilates this week...haha! (hand slap to forehead)

Anyhow, I didn't get a photo today, so here's one of D from earlier this week.  He kept trying to get out of his "quiet time" (he rarely naps anymore) and I told him I would come get him when it was time for quiet time to be over.  When I went up to get him this is how I found him...and, yes, that is a glove on his hand.

99/365 Brownie & Ice Cream

My first try at food photography...I like the composition on the last one, so I included it, but I wish I would have closed down a little more on that one.

95/365 Rembrandt lighting

My first attempt at Rembrandt lighting.  It's not perfect, but probably as close as I will achieve with this subject :)
