a narrative of Father's Day
A trip to Patapsco State Park's tire playground and then a dinner at the Olive Grove was how we celebrated Father's Day 2010! Daddy turned a big stick into a little stick, and other folks put on "shows" in the...
sketches of moments
He had been asleep for awhile, when I went to grab the camera. He promptly woke up after hearing the shutter release, obviously confused.
Growing Every Day
Lucas has a penchant for falling asleep by himself--something Ruth never really did well as a baby. Ruth has the biggest smile when she's in a good mood and mommy is playing games with the camera.
Nervous Anticipation
I leave for Baltimore today. It's going to be strange, returning to the home-that-is-no-longer-my-home. I'm nervous, mostly about leaving my kids for so very long. I won't see Ruth until we meet in Austin, and Lucas will be away from...
New Photos, New Reflections
This past weekend, I jumped a huge hurdle: my very last wedding photography gig of the summer, at 7 months pregnant. I remember photographing weddings while pregnant with Ruth two years ago. My last wedding was when I was 8...
May Photos: A Visit from the Lloyds
So I've finally posted a gallery of photos from May that were taken on the Lloyds' visit to our place on Memorial Day weekend--just a few vingettes of Ruthie being amazingly cute, and Liana being beautiful, and Nathan being...
Piano Pals
Ruth and Julia like to play together. Ruth is just 5 months older than Julia, which makes the age difference about the same as me and my favorite cousin, Heidi (sorry, every other cousin I have). You can't beat two...
It's Official: All Grown Up
It's official: my daughter is now officially All Grown Up. Over a week ago, she stopped nursing, cold turkey. I breastfed her nearly exclusively for the first 6 months of her life, and never expected it all to last as...
Ruth in a Snowstorm
So as much of the East Coast knows, we were hit by a snowstorm that made Marylanders cringe. It was blisteringly cold and still snowing in the morning, but I took Ruth out anyway so she could experience the weather....
The Party
Ruth was such a crazy girl at her party. Here are some photos to prove it. She said hello to all her friends! She had her first taste of sweets! And her favorite present was a big rainbow silk scarf...
One Year Ago
Ruth turns one today. A year ago, I became a first-time mom. A squealing little five pound bundle was handed to me, and I got lost in a whole new world. Today, Ruth turns one. She's walking, jabbering, interacting,...
Unbelievably gorgeous
Daddy likes to help me walk around!...
Into the crib, out of our bed
It is so strange to go to bed without her next to me, her little body a twitching furnace. But it's wonderful to snuggle up next to my husband now, without Ruthie trying to make an "H" out of our sprawling, sleeping bodies. We're into a new phase of nighttime parenting.
Let me have that camera
It's posing a new child-development/photographic challenge for me, and I look forward to using the new knowledge in my photography business.
Sandy diapers, here I come
Daddy wrote my name!...
Pretty in pink / Triumphs in sleep
For all the sleep drama that pervades my life, tonight is the best night EVER.
OMG can you believe Daddy's nose?
Now that she can stand up and be all active, one of her favorite things is to be chased by daddy all around the house...
Houston, we have standing
It's wicked cute.
Houston, we have crawling
Last Wednesday afternoon was a frantic surge of baby-proofing activity. I came home, and Steve was holding a squirrely baby in his arms. "She's been crazy," he said. Nothing was sacred anymore!
Oatmeal Shocker
What? Me? Messy?! Never!
