The boys' Photo Shoot with NOVIE

While my family was visiting we hired a photographer to take some really nice pictures of the whole gang a well and us and the boys.  It was a lot of fun and Jason and Nicole of NOVIE photography were really great sports for dealing with a lot of adults and 2 one-year olds.  We did the shoot in San Clemente on the pier, on the beach and under the pier.  Here is a picture of the action...

Nicole did everything in her power to get Jack and Greyson to look at the camera and smile, which is a huge feat and she did a phenomenal job, while her husband Jason snapped away, trying to get the lighting and setup just right.  We really wanted to capture that "California feel" so we had the beach and pier in the background and we ended up getting just a tad wet. It was a blast and here is a Thank you Card I created on Shutterfly from one of the beautiful photos that I purchased from them.

Happy 1st Birthday, Babies!

WOW does time fly!!  It has been an amazing exhausting year and it has been so worth all the struggles we have gone through to bring these fabulous babies into the world.  Let's walk down memory lane, shall we?

Here was their first baby picture
Just 8 and 10 cells, we couldn't have imagined how adorable our little frosties would turn out!

Here's me - very pregnant!



Ready to deliver!

Three Days old


2 months old

4 months old

6 months old
8 months old
10 months
12 months

Looking at ALL the pictures I think it is funny that Greyson is almost always on the left of the pictures and Jack is on the right (except for the bath picture).

Love Love Love them!!

I joined the Photo-A-Day August Challenge #photoadayaug

So this month I am going to do some directed photography along with my blogging.  I found this challenge from FatMumslim (yep read that again, slower, yep - not fat muslim - fat mum slim...).   You know I love photography and so I thought this would be fun.  I still have a ton of projects and crafts to share (as this is the boys' BIRTHDAY month!) but I also find I need inspiration to keep me bloggin'.  I'll be posting my photos on Pinterest so you can follow me along there if you wish with #photoadayaug.  So, without further ado, here is the August list.  The categories in pink fall on weekend days.


 And here are the descriptions of each Challenge:


1. Outside: Take a photo of outside {outdoors} or something outside of something. So a person outside a door, a lolly {candy} outside a lolly {candy} jar.
2. One: This can be anything. The number 1. The word one. A single item.
3. Coin: This can be money. Perhaps a coin you see on the ground. One from your wallet.
4. Somewhere you sat: Where have you sat today? Take a photo.
5. Logo: Take a photo of a logo, on something you buy, somewhere you see it or something you have at home. Or even your own logo? If you have one.
6. Writing: This could be your own writing, something you’re reading, or something someone wrote to you.
7. 8 o’clock: Take a photo of whatever you’re doing/seeing at 8am or 8pm. Or both.
8. Glasses: This could be drinking glasses, sunglasses or spectacles. Great creative in how you shoot them.
9. Messy: What’s a mess? Take a photo of it. Again, be creative. Think outside the box.
10. Ring: This could be a ring {like a wedding ring}, or a circle or even someone on the phone? It could be a whole host of things. Even gymnast rings.
11. Purple: Take a photo of something purple.
12. Spoon: Take a photo of a spoon, the eating utensil.
13. Simple: Take a photo of simplicity, whatever this means to you. Perhaps it’s a really simple photo {without much distraction} or a photo of something simple in your life {a simple dinner like eggs on toast or something}.
14. Arrow: Take a photo of an arrow.
15. Ready: What’s ready right now? Are you ready to explore? Is your lunch ready? Are you ready to leave? This one will get you thinking.
16. Food: Take a photo of food, real or play.
17. Faces: Do you see faces in things? In clouds, on cars? Take a photo. Or take a pic of real faces.
