Here are a few more.....
Christian and Jake, both one, both not yet walking:
Christian:
And, not related, but a few days ago Christian just pushed himself up in the playroom and started walking. I know you can't tell in this picture, but he's not holding on to anything. I had my camera, but he surprised me and Ansley was jumping up and down clapping, and while I love my 50 mm lens for close ups, it doesn't do so well in moments like this. I started running backwards, to try and fill my lens with him walking, and I tripped, snapped a great shot of the ceiling, hit my head on the trampoline and by the time I uprighted myself, this was what I captured. Ah, what a story behind a picture, huh?
We are leaving for Hawaii at the end of this week, and there is lots to do. We drop off the kids on Thursday, in between packing for them, packing for us, making sure we have everything, writing lists for the grandparents, lists for the petsitters, double checking camera equipment, cleaning the house (it's always nice to come home to a clean house!) .... whew, it's a lot of work! But we are excited and ready to be refreshed!
Totally lol at your attempt to get pictures of Christian walking! OMG- SO funny- and laughing with you of course :) Seriously, only a mother could relate to that story, as I've done it many times myself. What we won't go through for the sake of a picture- right! Way to go Christian! Whew- I'm tired just reading about all you have to do before leaving for Hawaii. Have you ever been? I was once back in H.S., and it's beautiful! Did I mention how jealous I am?! :) Hope you have a wonderful and safe trip, and can't WAIT to see pictures! Happy traveling!
