Playing around with my new lens

I just bought the Nikkor AF 50mm f 1.8 lens, and I love it. The difference between the stock lenses that and this new one is that the focus is more distinct and it blurs out the background, giving you a main focus image. In photography terms, it has a very short depth of field. I took a photography boot-camp back in May, and it was amazing...

Anamarie's New Smile!

Anamarie lost another tooth on Saturday night. She's such a pro now from pulling out her last tooth, that she didn't need any help with this one. She worked on it for two days and the anticipation was killing me. I wanted so badly to just yank it out because it was hanging by a tiny thread of skin. But I held back and she did it all on her own. $3 from the tooth fair...

Brett's New Bike

A few months back I took Brett to Walmart to show him how cool the big boy bikes were. I even let him ride around the isles for awhile and cheered him on as he rode on his new spider man bike (he thought). I told him as soon as he goes potty in the toilet he can have that bike, and we can take it home with us. It's 2 months later and no potty in the toilet, and yes, he has...

Crazy Hair Day!

Today was Crazy Hair day at Anamarie's school. Maddy came up with the idea of putting a small paper cup on her head and making a tall pony tail to go around it, so it was hidden inside. Kinda like the Who's on the Grinch movie. Bright orange hairspray with about 30 clips; she was definitely craz...

Toothless, Dirty, & Crazy, but super cute!!

"Brettso" is quite an interesting little boy. Before my 3 boys, I was a mother to 1 boy for 12 years and developed a very skewed perception of what most little boys are like. I thought all boys were mild tempered, easy going, didn't hit, or bite or spit (yes, that's Brett's favorite new defense). I thought all little boys obeyed...

Double Rainbow...All the WAY!!

Yes, it was a "double rainbow across the sky". It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon when it only rained for a few minutes while the sun was shining, making this amazing sight right across our house. Brettso & Anamarie especially loved it. Anamarie's friend Daphney join us in the family picture...
