Britany and Dan

So aren't these two the cutest ever! I love how protective Dan is of Britany. He takes good care of her. It was lots of fun to shoot these guys, even though I've stil got a lot to learn!








And I recently discovered Poladroid. It's free, and it's sweet! There is even a whole flickr group dedicated to it. Drag and drop your pictures and they become polaroids.

P.S. Some people are kind of against this-- they say these kind of things are the reason Polaroid film is no longer made. This I do not know. I just think it's something fun to do.

For posterity. Christmas: Final Installment.

I just had to get these on here. To document!

Ethan had lots of fun with friends and family:

Ross was punk'd by his Momma:

They were happy because they succeeded:

One of the few pictures of me, Ethan is eating his new shirt:

Ross wrote me a sweet note and gave presents along with it,
since we'll be apart a lot for the next couple of months:

Ethan was really tuckered out by 9:30 Christmas morning:

Ethan received some fun presents:

And it seems helicopters were the theme this Christmas:

And so. My first tax season as an accountant widow has begun. Ross will be spending his time in Kansas City working, and I'll be going back and forth. I guess he'll be working 70+ hours a week, so it doesn't do me much good to go over and join him anyway. I'll try REALLY hard not to sound too melancholy! This is good. He needs this experience. He does. Grumble. Grumble.

Christmas: Installment 2

When the weather was 60 degrees and beautiful.







Yikes, I gotta post more often if I don't want to be talking about Christmas in February. I took lots o' pictures.

My own personal tornado

We fit right in here in Kansas.





My mom says that if it entertains him for longer than it takes to clean it up, it's worth the mess. I agree.

Christmas: Installment 1

I think he's over getting his picture taken.

"Ethan, look at mommy!"

"Ethan!"

"Eeeethan..."

Switch to a warmer hat, then back to "Ethan!!"

"Silly boy, look at mommy!"

Hmm.. we're closer.

Let's see if his cousin Matthew can help. "Matthew! Ethan!"

Nope.

At least Matthew looks cute.

Huh. Now we're losing both of them.

Okay, I'll take it.

Done, done, and done.

Christmas cards sent.

yay for after-Christmas Target sales!

Cookies delivered.


And most gifts bought and paid for (Ross is always the exception).


Only 6 more days 'til Christmas!


And looking forward to our DATE night tonight. It's been sooo long. We're going to Harry's Downtown (a big deal here in Manhattan) and seeing Quantum of Solace. While my parent's watch Ethan.

Our friends gave us a gift certificate to Harry's as a thankyou for the pictures I took of them. Funny thing is, I asked them if I could use them to practice on. They were doing me a favor. And they gave ME a gift certificate? So nice! I felt kind of guilty after they gave it to me.

Good lookin' couple, eh? Edited: No, they are not engaged, just a cute couple.

p.s. I saw this wall on one of Nicole's photos, and I had to find it.
Cause I think it's sweet.

O Christmas Tree

Wow it was a beautiful day. Ross and I still have a fake baby tree, so we went with my parents to find one for them. Yay Christmas!

He's getting a little big for his car seat huh? Merry Christmas Ethan, you get a new car seat!

Boy, Will sure is a teenager now.

We didn't have mittens, so we stuck socks on his hands:
