Cra-Cra!

Nana was in town this week and crazzzzzzyness was about. Chase seriously had the WORST night ever on Thursday. The night before my first big maternity shoot (more pics to follow and Katie was a dream)...Chase was something...else. Up all night. Chase is such a good natured kid but this week has been a bit torturous with 3 new teeth on the horizon. Nobody said he was an easy teether but he is still one of the most fun kids around. Good thing Nana was around to help out with his cra-cra...I couldn't have done it without her!

This picture makes up for it all...can we say...meant for the camera? (OK, I am severely biased :)). A rare shot that includes myself. Thanks dad!

I Smile.

This picture makes me smile everytime I see it. Stephine, we are so glad you are finally home! Another BIG little victory! xoxo

Field Day

For Sofia's second birthday, we took to the field. I am taking a natural light workshop in June so I am trying to gain as much experience outdoors as possible before it starts. The best part about Calico is that the kids can run free...The worst part is that the kids can run free. In between shots, Chase managed to fall off a very low bridge, fall into a bush, and sit on an ant farm. Fun times...but he is such a tough cookie and he didn't cry once.

Young Love.

Picture Overload. And A Trip To LA.

Once the start of summer hits Vegas, Mike and I spend much our time trying to figure out how we can escape it, if even for the weekend. This weekend we crashed Pete & Katy's house and we had a blast celebrating Pete's birthday a tad early. Chase was awesome in the car and I think even he put on a few lb's after the insane amount of eating we did. Good thing we hit the beach day 1!

Perfect spot to take a cranky kid...he ran around the "backyard" the whole time!

OK really, how stunning is Katy?

Observing @ the Observatory.

@ the house for game night. Zoe got in on the action.

And Rigley played with her ball. Surprise, surprise. Why does this remind me of an article from Wine Spectator?

Seen Inglorious Bastards? Katy has.

Hitting up the spice rack before bed.

Gotta love the sand in the mouth.
