Life gets busy, and you realize that things have just fallen by the wayside. Updating this blog is one of those things - I swear I keep meaning to do it and then life happens, and I just don't a chance to do it.
So for now I'm just going to quickly update the past month and then I'll try to be better at it.

I'm Terrible At This!
I completely blame it on Summer. All I want to do is be outside, spending as much time as I can with LM and shooting as much as possible. I mean, who really wants to waste even one day of sunshine when it's such a precious commodity around here! But I have been giving my camera a pretty good workout, so I thought I'd just post a few of my favorites from the last couple of weeks.
There may be more. In fact, I'm almost positive there are more, I've only scratched the surface of the pictures I took while on vacation. But a taste for now will have to suffice!

Pasta-riffic!
It's been a while since I posted - summer has been so busy and so much fun! I've carted my camera along with me just about everywhere though and have really enjoyed documenting our days.
The other day I gave LM pasta for the very first time. I must say that he's a baby that just loves food and he eats well, as long as I don't try to give him baby food, and I don't blame him, that stuff looks pretty unappetizing to me too, and if I don't want to eat it, I shouldn't expect him to want to.
He ate with gusto, smacking his lips and grinning. I think we have a new dinner favorite.

The Zoo
LM has just gotten to the age where he's starting to notice animals. He squeals with delight every time the cat walks anywhere near him, and the dogs just existing in the same space as him can send him into peals of hysterical giggles. So, when friends invited us to go to the zoo with them I thought it would be the perfect time to take him - if he loves the small cats he'd probably love the big cats.
The lions didn't get close enough to us for him to see, unfortunately, but he was able to see a few others. He really got a kick out of the zebras and the flamingos. I'd like to take him again sometime this summer, we had a lot of fun.

Black and White and my Macro Lens
I have not taken this lens off my camera since I got it on Monday - thanks again Lori! I know this lens isn't really the ideal lens to shoot a baby who's a mover and a shaker with, but I can't help wanting to play with it, so I snapped a few over the last few days with it. I think I managed a fairly decent shot here.

My Favorite Little Man
How is it even possible to love one little tiny human being so much? He makes me smile all the time, even when he frustrates me. I love seeing how excited he gets, just because a dog or cat has walked into the room. I love the way his eyes crinkle up when he smiles. I love how one morning he's able to do something new that he couldn't do the night before. And I just can't stop taking pictures of him. After all, he is the cutest baby in the world.
