Before and After

I haven't participated in this blog hop in a while, but I have been busy taking pictures! I'm loving my unofficial job! :)

This photo was from a fun session I had with my sister and her boyfriend. It turned out to be a very rainy day, but we didn't let that stop us from taking pictures. Here, Charles braved the wet ground by kneeling right on it. What a guy! :)

Before:

After:
I lightened it, took the drop of rain off of my sister's face, converted it to black and white and burned the edges just a bit. I took the photo with my Nikon D90 and edited in Photoshop CS3.

Golf!

I can't believe I forgot to post these photos!!! We have greatly enjoyed having a golf course as our backyard. Several evenings, just before the sun sets, when all the golfers have gone home, we take our mini caddy's and golf clubs out on the course to practice our swing play! I think we might have a child prodigy on our hands. Caleb has a GREAT swing and I'm not just saying that. He looks like a mini natural! :)

I think this is my favorite photo from this particular day:

Watching from the sidelines:

Stellan loves to hang upside down, much to his mommy's chagrin.

Grandma was visiting us for the week.

And this one, well, it just makes me laugh:

Toothless Wonder

Oh my. I'm kind of overloaded with pictures right now. But I guess that's something I better get used to. Hehe. But with 2 birthdays, and a trip to Jax that included a photo session, I've been pretty busy and am up to my eyeballs with photos! But I love it!

Aw, our toothless 8-month-old wonder.

He's such a happy little thing.

So curious about his surroundings, he likes to touch anything he can get his hands on.

I just love that little sucked-in lip!

No signs of any teeth yet. And he's not a big fan of solid food, but he's doing better. I think he will be crawling soon. He gets stronger every day, practicing reaching for toys just out of his reach. It's cute to watch him reach and lean so far that he plops over on his belly.

I love this stage and I love our little toothless wonder!
