Play Pics

It was a beautiful day and Monday after school is free for us so I get the idea to head over to my friend's gorgeous backyard and take pictures with their Easter outfits on.  Well, apparently, I can't take any posed pictures of my own children.  NOT EVEN ONE of them was a keeper.  Will would not sit or stand still for more than a split second.  If I asked anyone to touch anyone it turned into an argument.  So, I gave up and let them play on their playset.  THEN...they started posing for me left and right and having FUN.  It turns out these are probably more interesting anyway...but my wall remains empty...waiting for that portrait.

This year rather than giving my money to the Gods of Gap, I decided to custom order some clothes from my friend Jenn during her adoption fundraiser.  Check out her Etsy shop.

feeling the love...

I think almost everyone who reads this blog received my email last week about my new photography business.  If not, here is the link...
http://www.cookieclicksphotography.com/

I also have a cookie clicks photography blog...there is a link to it on the site.  I decided to keep it separate from our personal blog as I want this blog to remain our little family 'scrapbook'.

Thanks to my wonderful husband who has been so supportive.  He has not expressed even one ounce of hesitation in my new endeavor.....although he did jokingly mention that he had to wear a short sleeve shirt to work last Friday on casual day (it seems I have neglected the laundry due to my 10pm- 2am office hours, ha).  He must have some serious confidence in me. 

I have had so much fun starting this business and am so passionate about it.  People that know me know that I am so very indecisive and I don't have one teeny tiny ounce of indecision about this.  What has made it even more fun is my friends and family who have shown such an interest...or atleast pretended to, ha.  My friend Christina (whom I met eating cold refried beans out of a can on a late night in our dorm in college) said something like "This just couldn't be more perfect for you...I'm so happy for you."  My big sis (and only sis) Cathy sent me an email telling me how proud of me she was and some other nice things...although it was sent late night and red wine may have been involved.  :)

So, thank you all for listening...

Not Quite Yet, Little Buddy

Keep trying...

A Few Pics

Here are a few pics from the past couple of days.

Seriously cute girls...

Look at these girls...don't they look like sisters?  They are sweet little cousins with beautiful eyes and curly hair!  And...incase you were wondering what they were looking at, they noticed another little girl in the kitchen taking some icing off of the birthday cake!  :)

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!
