Family Times

This has been an exciting week. Josh and I just celebrated our 4th Anniversary on Thursday. We went to movies for the first time since we had Connor. We saw The Dark Knight. It was so good! Heath Leger played the Joker in the movie and he played it so well. I think it is my favorite Batman movie. Afterwards we went to the Melting Pot. It was so yummy. The chocolate fondue was to die for! I had such a great time.
In December, Josh and I are planning to go to Las Vegas. We already bought our plane and hotel tickets. We are staying at New York, New York. I am very excited! It will be the longest I've ever been away from Connor. That part is going to be really hard but I think it will be good for everyone. We are planning to go to a show, so if you have any suggestions let me know.

Back to Work

Hello Everyone!

My summer is quickly coming to an end. I have already started getting my classroom ready and going to new trainings. The summer has been so much fun! I love just hanging out with my family. But I have no choice- I have to go back!
The first picture is taken at Cochiti. I recently went there with family and friends. The other pictures I took in the backyard. Connor is doing very well. He started eating meats this week! He has had chicken and beef. His new favorite thing to do is to push the chairs around in the kitchen. This makes me really NERVOUS! So I stay right by him when he off on his adventure. I hope you enjoy the pictures. I am slowly learning how to manually take pictures. Let me know if anyone wants me to take pictures of you or your family. I need to practice on other people besides my #1 model and Josh. I cannot guarantee good pictures but I'll just charge you for what pictures you want and how much it cost to print them.

Self-Portrait

For my Photo Corp (my photo group with our church) I had an assignment to take a picture of myself and this was my portrait. I like taking portraits of others more!

Me and Papa

I took these pictures at my parents house on the Fourth of July. Connor was having a lot of fun with my dad. I think they look too cute together.

Connor started to wave hi and bye to EVERYONE! It doesn't matter if were at the grocery store or the mall he waves to anyone. Yesterday we went the mall and he found himself a girlfriend! We were eating our lunch in the food court and this couple with their daughter were sitting across from us. They were both so cute with each other. They kept smiling and waving at each other. Connor would shake his head and then she would shake her head. It was so CUTE! Connor must like older women because this little girl was probably a year and a half.

Chillin' at Home

This morning I took some shoots of Connor on our front porch. I am really happy with how they turned out. He has eyes that really pop out of the picture. I could not ask for a better model!

Connor broke two teeth recently and is starting to eat more textured foods. He still has not said mama he is stuck on dah-dah. Every time I tell him "say mama" he says "dah-dah! Such a daddy's boy!

Look at us!

The summer is going by so fast but I am still findng time to play with my camera. Here is a picture I took a few days ago of all of us. I placed my camera on a tripod and them hopped in the picture. It was a little tricky getting everything centered and also getting Connor to look towards the camera. But Tickle Me Cookie Monster helped us out there. I love taking family portraits! We haven't actually taken a picture of the three of us since December and Connor has changed so much since then.

Connor and Daddy

Hello Everyone! I am having so much fun staying at home with my family. I am not going to want to go back to work!! Last night I took some pictures of Josh and Connor at home. Here are a couple of the pictures that I took. Enjoy!!
