All Day Together

Wednesday nights TJ has his photography class. Bronwen and I get to spend the entire day together, and I am so happy when that day is as lovely as it was yesterday. We spent a great deal of time outside. We weeded the flowers (sometimes Bronwen got confused about which ones to pick), played in the pine straw, went for a long walk, visited the neighbors, and played in Donalyn's backyard. It was a great day.

The following pictures were taken after bath time. Her hair is getting so curly!

First, I surprise Bronwen by snapping her photo.Then, she sees the camera and waves a hello to her Mama.
I tell her to show off her curls.
Finally, she pics a book to read before bedtime.

Just Me and My Baby

Time Passes

Being Silly this Weekend

These are some of the "outtakes" from TJ's photo session. I admit I am a little uncomfortable in the role of "model," (not to be confused with 'role model,' who is a person like Britney Spears or Amy Winehouse) but luckily there is someone with me who tends to steal all the limelight. Yes, that limelight certainly does know where it belongs.

Family Resemblence

TJ has been taking a photography class and enjoys using Bronwen and me as models. The other day, his assignment was to get some action shots; he took pictures of Bronwen crawling through the grass. TJ and I were both reminded of other pictures we had, taken two years ago. The resemblance is eerie, don't you agree?

La Dolce Vita

It is a sweet life indeed! Bronwen and I set out on several errands this afternoon. We sojourned to Whole foods, which is a place where I rue the fact I'm not fabulously rich. I would shop there exclusively for snobbish organic products and $15 a pound cheeses. Oh well. I'd rather be comfortably ensconced in my small house, spending each day with Bronwen, than full of fancy cheeses, I suppose. Still, that place is awesome.

We treated ourselves to some pomegranate gelato. I kept Bronwen in the shopping cart, went outside to the tables and we shared. She smiled and waved at passers by, and the wind was blowing through our hair. We just took the time to enjoy each minute. It was sweet indeed.

When we got home (after a couple more party-planning stops) we went outside for a bit. Below are some pictures of Bronwen seizing the day.

Daddy and Mini-Me

Bronwen was once again pitching in and pulling her weight around the household. I walked outside last night to see the following:(note: the beer is TJ's.)

I called to them and TJ looked, but his helper was too intent on the task at hand.
I decided to move around behind the beds, so I could see what these two were up to.

Yep--they were weeding. Bronwen seemed surprised to find me there, camera in hand, but once she knew I was taking her picture, she was all smiles.
