I had a photography assignment to do. One I had kinda-sorta been putting off. Because the assignment was to get a picture of me. *yeah* So, since I don’t own a tripod nor a remote, I figured I’d have one of my kiddos snap the picture… you know, once I’d determined the location, chosen the settings on my camera, taken… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: 14 from 2013
I did it last year. The year before. And even the year before that. It’s sort of a thing, I suppose. And, since 2013 doesn’t want to be left out, here are my favorites from the last year. Not necessarily technically my favorites, from a photography standpoint. Just from a mama’s standpoint. 1. Princess Vivienne. 2. My incredibly silly pony…. Read More
Sunday Snapshot: ice, baby.
I’ve got a lazy bone. And even though I’d promised my kids I’d take them ice skating, the lazy mama in me was so not looking forward to it. Because I knew. I knew taking 6 kids – 4 of whom have never donned ice skates before – was going to be painful. Thankfully, my tickets had an expiration date…. Read More
a birthday and a mustache.
This was supposed to be a Sunday Snapshot. In which case it would be a few days late. Or several days early, depending on how you look at it. Either way, it’s a good one. Because my baby, my last baby-by-birth, just turned 12. And that crazy business calls for a party… and a cake… and lots and lots of… Read More
four weeks in
Not ashamed to say it. Just four weeks into the new year and homeschooling an 8th grader and a 6th grader is kicking my hiney. More specifically, an 8th grader who is taking a high-school Biology course, doesn’t manage his time extremely well and can’t resist a game of hide-and-seek with his sisters. And a 6th grader who never misses… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: Dalton this summer
Since celebrating Poppy’s 2 years home with a photo shoot, I’ve been taking my kids out – one by one – to capture them this summer. Given, it’s almost fall now, but I’m not one to let a technicality stop me. Sophie’s photos are here and Isabelle’s are here. Just a few more to go. Okie-dokie. Back to Dalton. When… Read More
how they grow
Because my memory often fails me. And because you can’t misplace the internet (not that I’ve ever misplaced anything important.) I took measurements of my kiddos about the same time last year. But – thinking I’d get around to measuring them later – I skipped the littles. And never did measure them. Until yesterday. This year I decided to forego… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: my babies
It’s been a busy summer. In a good way. I’ve let a lot of “regular” things slip because I wanted to be intentional about spending time with my kids. And it has been so ridiculously fun. One of the things I put on the back burner – besides blogging regularly – was my photography. I used to pull my camera… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: a new normal
Since the move, the attendance at our little homeschool has doubled. Welcome to our newest student, Dalton. I’d been worried that adding Dalton to the mix would double (or even worse) the homeschooling chaos around here. Asher and I both share a bit of a laissez faire mentality and occasionally frequently lack of organization and chaos can rule. And Dalton… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {celebrating D}
My boy went and turned 11 on me. The youngest child from my womb. And – despite the fact that this event made me want to suck my thumb, eat copious amounts of chocolate and never leave my bed again – we went out to celebrate. And celebrate, we did. On this night, the sky was the limit. Appetizers and… Read More
