A funfilled day spent with cousins.

My Monsta helped me out this time around. Thanks for being still for like 1 second!

Why not, right? You’re a kid, you can do anything! Came across this site recently. How cool does that look? I wonder if there is anything like this on the East Coast.
I’ve been trying to get the Monsta to go on the LIRR. He LOVES trains and we visit the station often. (It is right by his school) A train pulled up the other day and I wanted to get on real quick and then off again. He wouldn’t have any part of it. What is that about? I told him I would hold him to get on. I think the gap really freaked him out. The Engineer did wave to us out the window as they pulled away. He got a kick out of that!
Here is another cutie shot sans pizza:

I had the pleasure of attending a beautiful Baptism last Sunday at St. Patrick Church in Bayshore. It was a special day for Kris & JoAn’s twins… they were so sweet in their outfits and I didn’t even hear them make a peep. The celebration continued with family and friends in another part of the church. We enjoyed homecooked food and meeting up with some old friends.
this last one is my friend Leslie (she dances flamenco too) holding my little cubby. She dazzled him with her sparkly earrings!
Thanks guys for such a great day!

I entered this shot into a contest for Photographing Children: Using textures. Winner gets Photoshop CS5. I’m keeping my fingers crossed but I never seem to have any luck with these contests. It’s fun to participate anyway.

Welcome to my new squeaky fresh and clean site. It has been a long week trying to redesign this whole thing and I’m not even close to being finished but I wanted to go live asap. I miss you guys! Although there are many similarities as far as content, the whole structure is different. This new layout will allow me to basically post more “stuff”. I will be changing pages and info forever over the next few weeks so don’t get used to what you see. I plan on showcasing my biz, Earth & Skye Photography and even offering some giveaways to my readers. I can’t wait for that!
Speaking of new……I want to show you what the Monsta made the other day. I love when I witness him doing something new creatively. He plays with playdoh all the time and usually makes funny faces with spiked hair, waffles, long rolls, a big mess….this time, he started building something very intricate. I saw him concentrating with the tongue out and everything. I watched quietly. What did he turn out? A snow man with a trunk he told me.
Isn’t it the most interesting snowman you have ever seen? I thought so. Look at those arms. I can imagine this snowman animated with those arms moving so gracefully to really cool music. I just had to capture it.
Another first: Cubby started eating! Today is his fifth day and he is soooo happy. Started with rice cereal then moved on to sweet potato. Gosh, he gets so excited when he sees that spoon. It has been hard to capture that moment though because he has been moving around so much. Craig brought down the highchair from the attic so now it will be easier for me and more controlled. It is a sight to see. Check him out:
This shot was his first viewing of the spoon. He sort of looks a bit like a deer in headlights. He warmed up seconds later though.
Well, it is Thursday (It is actually Sunday but when I posted this it was Thursday) and I must get off this darn computer because if the house is dirty on a Thursday……not good.
I want to thank you all for sticking around and visiting me. Is there anything YOU would like to see here? Any topics YOU would like to discuss? Any anything? Just putting it out there.
Happy Earth Day! (We’ll be planting bulbs and strawberries and peas today)

As you know….the monsta doesn’t like to give those beautiful, natural smiles anymore. It is cheese galore with him. Yesterday was different. We were playing outside and he told me NOT to bring out my camera. I said ok. After we came in to warm up again, I asked him if I could bring it out. (Can you believe I have to ask?) He said yes. We were tackling eachother on the front lawn because that is what a Mom of boys is required to do and I said, OOOH, let me set up the timer and take our picture. He said yes. He sat down, I focused and pressed the shutter and ran to him. He got a kick out that. Everytime the camera beeped faster, he laughed. The 5 pictures I took are all great and I will cherish them forever.
