Beckett's Snow Day

Growing up in TN, snow days were rare for me. Having already lived in CO and now MA, I think I have more than made up that deficit. Beckett was only a newborn in Colorado when it snowed last year, so this was the first time he really had a chance to get out and play in it.

We bundled him up and Mathew pulled him around on the sled at first…

And he loved it!

Until Mathew stood him up and he face planted into the snow! Here daddy was trying to console him…

So he got back on the sled and went around a few more time until he just wanted to lay on the ground. So we let him…

That's one happy boy! He was trying to catch the snowflakes in his mouth…

In an effort to challenge myself on a weekly & daily basis, I am participating in two photo challenges this year. One is simply to take a photo everyday and post it to Instagram (I plan on using just my iPhone for this challenge). The second is hosted by my favorite camera rental company, LensProToGo (here in MA!). Their photo challenge is a 52 week theme based project and I intend to use my Nikon for this one.

Week One - A Self Portrait Without You In It

Fall at Home. Beckett, 14 mo.

Our front door is rockin' this wreath for the holidays and I love it. It's also probably the only holiday decor my home will see this season. Since moving to our new place, I seem to be dragging stuff out of boxes on a daily basis (or trying to at least) and so I still don't feel settled. Don't you hate that feeling? I do. I'd like it to be done… yesterday. But such is life with a now 14 mo. old, things get pushed and before you know it Easter will be here and I'll still have "take down x-mas lights" on my to-do list.

Baby Corr

Back in the spring (after deciding to move) we had a huge 3 day garage sale and my beautiful & then newly pregnant friend, Neian, came by to see us looking so ridiculously cute that I just HAD to grab my camera. I mean, seriously, I didn't go out looking that cute my whole pregnancy. I'm so thrilled that this is their birth month and I can't wait to meet their baby girl. Cheers guys!

Beckett Turns One!

Ok, so… I thought I had already posted this. That's how bad I have mommy brain right now. It's been sitting here just waiting for me to hit "publish" for weeks. For Christmas I'm asking Santa for some extra brain cells… and a few more hands… and some extra hours in the day. Yep, that would be just great.

Please enjoy these pics from Beckett's first birthday. Mathew's mom & dad drove up from Ohio and got to spend some quality time with the birthday boy!
