Heart Crayons | Cincinnati OH photographer

We decided to make some heart shaped crayons for Valentine's day. The boys had fun and it was super easy. It's a great way to use all the broken crayons in your house too. If your anything like us you have a TON! I pry could have made a few dozen and still had more. They turned out really cute too!

This is Nevins:
His crayon

He was taking pictures of his too! :)
Nevin was taking pics too

We used something like these: Wilton Silicone Heart Pan
except it was the large hearts not the mini's and has 6 cavities instead of 12, but you get the idea if you want to try. :)

Testing 1 2 3 | Cincinnati OH baby photographer

Nolan is always so great at helping me test out the things I make. I made a fringe blanket for some upcoming newborn shoots. (Can't wait for all the little ones to be born) and I wanted to test it out. Excuse the horrible crops remember these are just quick test shots but Nolan and the blanket are still adorable if I do say so myself. :)

Bear hunt | Cincinnati OH baby photographer

I made a bear hat for upcoming new born sessions, it can be worn with the bow for a baby girl and without for a boy. I think I will get some pink ribbon for the bows also.

So excited

Well, sense Nolan was born I have been trying to get even just a snap shot of all 4 of my boys together and it just doesn't work out. Christmas time we tried numerous times to get all 4 boys together for our Christmas card but again failed and had to be in the photo with them. Today I decided to set out once again to complete my mission once thought impossible. I GOT IT! All 4 of my boys together and all 4 LOOKING! Here they are, my gorgeous boys:
My life
I am ordering this extra big! Can't wait to hang it in my house! :)

Snow Galore

Being from California and not seeing a whole lot of snow in my lifetime, this is just amazing to me. There is SOOO much snow, more than I have ever seen anyway.
It went from this:
Thought this was a lot
To this:
And it keeps coming down
It's still coming down too! Notice in the second shot the tops of the rail on the deck are covered. It's really gorgeous, but I don't have to go any where. I am sure I wouldn't be thinking about it's beauty if I had places to go. The boys love it and Nicholas of course is digging the fact that he has had 2 snow days in a row and will pry get another. We played out in it yesterday and hope we will get to play in it again today.

Nicholas even did a little news cast for us yesterday:

Mommy and Daddy's bed

Nolan was having fun on our bed after spitting up on his outfit I had JUST put on him. I had been wanting to take some pictures of him on our bed so I decided it was a perfect time sense he was down to the diaper already. :)

Silly boy

I decided to do away with the diaper too, He was cracking up at daddy telling him not to pee on the bed. I was surprised he didn't.
Big giggles

Nolan

Gotta love a little drool!

I realize now I didn't take pictures of the actual gifts....ooops I had Nolan on my lap ready to nurse so I snapped as much as I could. He made out though, Nana even picked him up in the morning and took him to breakfast and let him pick out some gifts for himself. He got some cool nerf sets, transformers, buzz lightyear race track, Games for his DS, Flash lights (he loves flash lights and makes Chuck buy him one each time they go to the hardware store...quite the collection!) He even got a firefighter dress up set. Lots of neat stuff!
