I could not be happier that my nephew is getting bigger everyday. Everytime I see him he looks so different and amazes me with how advanced he is! He is only 3 months old and already holding his head up and eating baby food! We finally put him in his exer-saucer and he loved it!!!!! I just love this lil guy!

So I had some down time today and saw a basket of fruit on the table. I started playing with them by stacking and arranging them in different ways. Then I used the app on my phone to change the filters and contrast. They turned out pretty good!

There is something about the terible 2s....they are horrible and great all at the same time! So between the screaming tantrums and adorable hugs I was able to catch a cute moment. Bri was just standing there and I told her I wanted to take a picture...she rolled up her pants and stuck out her feet! Shes a natural...

I enjoy the snow...the cold...and pretty much eveything about winter! So when we decided to go to The Meadows in Lake St. Louis today I was up for it. Its an outdoor mall with quite a few shops and a resturant called Max & Ermas. They had a great lunch menu with an option of cookies or ice cream bar for dessert. They chose ice cream! Fun times :)

Calm...quiet...perfect!

Ok so im a little behind on posting but its been a busy weekend. This picture was taken friday night....when a bird almost attacked Lindsey. Apparently our garage is a warm place for the little birdies....well sadly one didnt make it out and got stuck in the garage door. So as he was squaking at Lindsey I took a broom and freed him. Guess he told his little friends because the next day I opened the door to find 3 more birds nesting in the garage! Guess we are going to have to do some spring cleaning!

Waking up to a fresh blanket of snow is great! I guess its because I love snow so much. It was nice to look out the back door and see tons of birds. As long as we have had the bird feeders I have never seen that many birds. So second nature to me I picked up my camera and started shooting. Here is a few types of birds that we have not including the beautiful woodpeckers and hummingbirds that were flying around earlier!

Well today as my mom and I were shopping I found it! I found it in the lest likely place and a store i never shop in...Claires. But who cares I found it :)

I love Italian food....and I love going out to dinner!!! Tonight I decided to use my giftcard that I got for Christmas. I took my dinner buddies (Lisa and Mandy) to Maggianos. They had never been and I have been a few times. I told them all about the two meals for $12.95 and they didnt believe me until the menu came! Over all it was a great meal!!! Then the dessert menu came....we had to try a sample! The offer bite size (wich is huge) of a few of their desserts. This is the Teramisu and let me tell you it was FAB!!!!!!!! Love that place....

Since I took some pictures of my pup Seeley I only felt it was fair that my other one got some too. So this is Boothe...a little overweight and very lazy! But overall hes a good dog. Oh and did I mention hes adorable!

Jan 15th

So normally I cant stand oatmeal...any kind! I was out and about and decided why not give the McDonalds oatmeal a try. Well it ended up being really really good. Surprising I know....i was scared to try it but in the end I am a fan!! Something a little healthier at McDonalds im all for it :)

Photoshop is a very unique and at times difficult program to understand.I am learning more and more everyday about the program. I enjoy using it to change the hue/saturation or the lighting. Also to change the picture to black and white or sepia. I sometimes just take pictures of random things just to mess around with the picture! That is what I did today....just picked up my camera and took random pictures. This is the result....

When you think of rainbows you think of rain and springtime...not winter! As I was on my way to the doctor this morning I looked up in the sky and found a small rainbow. It was weird and took me a while to figure it out but it kept getting brighter. It was very pretty and just made my day better! (cant really see it but its in the middle...also taken with my phone through a car window)

Jan 12th

I love winter (most people dont), but to me its awesome! I really love when it snows. I find the snow very pretty and just makes everything else look better! So when I see fresh untouched snow it makes me want to pick up camera. So I did.....this is untouched snow on a football field. This is the Bishop Dubourg's football field that any other day would be filled with high schoolers and track runners. So pretty!

I have always thought that having a touch therapy dog was a great idea. I wantedt o put my dog Kramer in the program but he was too old and passed away. So i thought it was funny when Candice told me her mo had thier dog Tucker in the program. But what was even funnier is what she showed me next.........Tucker has his own business card! How great is that....

Today my mom and I decided to go to Main Street in St. Charles. We walked around and shopped a little and took pictures. I loved this picture of the American Flag! But then again I love taking pictures of the flag for some reason. I decided apon this one because the way the sun hit it made the reds and blues stand out...i love it!

Jan 4th

For my Birthday I decided I wanted to go to my favorite Mexican resturant. Chimichangas. It was a great time with great people! When it was time to sing me happy birthday I go a sombrero on my head and a waiter shoving fried ice cream in my face! All in all it was  GREAT day!!!!

Today we went on one of our picture taking excursions......it took us to Robertsville MO. Somewhere I had never been to and it was so close. We went to take pictures of the tornado damage and I had no clue what it was going to look like. When we acutally saw the houses or what was left of them it was so sad. The town itself is only a few blocks wide but half the town is ruined. Here is the picture that made me sad...it was a church but now just a pile of rubble.....

As I was thinking about doing this project I was trying to figure out what picture I was going to use. Since it was a holiday weekend my brother and his family were in town. It had been a long day and my brother and my nephew Parker were laying on the couch sleeping. It hit me that this was the perfect picture! It was quite possibly the most precious thing ever. So here it is.....
