Project 52 | Week 16 | Expressive

I swear, the weeks just keep going by faster and faster!  It’s already time for another week of Project 52 with the Bloom Forum!  This week’s theme is “expressive.”  I took these this week at the park while the boys were playing chase with their daddy.   I simply love the look of happiness on their faces.  They are so in the moment and enjoying playing chase with one another.  The smiles, the laughs, the giggles……….this is what it’s all about.

Now head over to the wonderful Melinda Meredith and check out her version of this week’s theme HERE.  Come back next week when our theme is “facial features.”

It’s a (cup) Cake Smash!

I met this wonderful family back in October when they contacted me to do family photos for them.  They were so much fun to “play” with then, so I was super excited when they asked me to do one year photos of the sweet Mr. B!  It’s always amazing to me just how quickly little ones change at this age.  Back in October, Mr. B’s brother, Mr. M, had no interest in having his photo taken.  Last week, however, was a completely different story!  He was all about being my model and having his picture taken.  And the smiles……..well, they just went on for days!  I had such a fun time with these two handsome little guys!

While I prefer to take pictures outside, the weather here doesn’t always allow for that.  It’s been a wet, cold couple of weeks, so an indoor session was in order.  And, as a mom of two boys, I love the fact that these two are all boy!  They were both such great sports, and as a result we were able to get some fun, vibrant pictures to help document and celebrate the sweet Mr. B!

In Like a Lion | Snow Day

Overall, the winter this year has been a tad bit on the disappointing side.  Don’t get me wrong, it’s been cold for these Hawaii folks.  However, the snow has been very sporadic.  We had some in Oct., some in Jan., and some the past two days.  Other than that, it’s been a “mild” New England winter.  Knowing that today would most likely be our last day to get out in the snow and play–supposed to be in the 50s tomorrow–we headed out for some fun.  I pulled out the Lensbaby to play around as well.  I figure the only way I’m ever going to get the hang of that thing is to use it use it use it!  Overall, I’m pretty happy with how these turned out.  And, while the winter weather has been fun, I sure am looking forward to getting back to somewhere warmer!

Snow Day

It was a beautiful snowy day here in New England!  We woke up to snow falling, and we got to watch it fall pretty much all day.  With about six inches of white stuff on the ground, we had a blast sledding down the small bunny slope in the back yard. Thankfully the rain is supposed to hold off until Monday, so we will get to go outside and play some more tomorrow.  The boys were exhausted from walking up and the hill and sliding back down.  But, it was nothing a little hot chocolate couldn’t fix!

I Heart Faces Challenge {Black}

The theme for this week’s I Heart Faces challenge is black.  I couldn’t resist submitting this sweet shot of my little man celebrating the loss of his first tooth.  His tooth was super wiggly last night and this morning was hanging by a thread.  I had to problem talking him into letting me play photographer with him.  Love this boy and can’t believe how fast they grow!  He was actually on his belly on the couch and propping his head up with his hands, which was his pose idea.  He’s so proud to have lost his tooth.  However, at bedtime, he said, “Mommy, I kinda miss my tooth a little.  It was a good tooth.”  So funny!
