How About These Pants?

Love love love, luuuuvvvve my new camera.  So much better than dad's.  Sorry dad. Day one with no instructions on the camera, just a little bit of knowledge from research I've done.  Hopefully, as I learn more about the camera, the pictures will get better.  Notice the blurred background in these Cassie shots.  Love it!

I saw this fabric at Cabbage Rose and it screamed Wesley pants to me.  I have been meaning to make him some pants and thought this plaid print was adorable. They are fully lined with a jersey knit so he can wear them out in public in the fall and winter...Larry is not excited but I am!   Yeah for a new outfit.  Shirt $1.50 from Target, Pants $5 worth of material, Shoes $12?  from Old Navy.  Total outfit: $18.50  

Spontaneous Fort Worth Zoo Trip

 
The weather was perfect, Cassie took a good morning nap, so we decided to go to the zoo! 

Handing over the admission ticket

Love reflective pictures!

Monkeys

Otters

So Cute!

Jaguar

Squirrel!!!   The Texas squirrel is not as hefty as the Maryland squirrel, but at least they live here.

Yum, camera strap.  Cassie was almost soaked with drool by the end of the day.  Still no teeth.

Asian Rhino

Ahhh.  Tiger.  Wesley ran away when he first came around the corner.

Who doesn't love a train ride.

Love the leg warmers! 

Cassie is Eight Months...and two days

 So, I'm really mad at this camera. GRAINY, these pictures are GRAINY and I took them OUTSIDE!  This shouldn't be happening!  Just a little perturbed.  Anyway, enjoy Cassie's 8 month pictures and her first "ride" in the power wheel.  It was not moving and Wesley was under strict instructions not to make it go. I also added a sneak preview of the cutest turkey onesie I made.   ...grrr grainy pictures...

Fat Bottom Girls

and I don't mean Cassie's diaper.

You Tube Video of Wesley and Cassie is here and here. The second one has some great moves.

Cassie, Meet Penguin

Cassie, meet Penguin. Penguin, meet Cassie.


Cassie and Penguin, meet Camera.

Cookie Time and Picture Taking with a Different Setting

These are more shots using Dad's camera with the aperture priority set to it's lowest f stop. (Ha, it sounds like I know what I'm talking about!) Surprisingly, they are not too blurry!



Mommy, what are you doing?




Nana decided we needed to bake cookies for an after school decorating project. Yum, I can't say no to frosted sugar cookies.




I want a cookie too!



Wesley, you cannot start eating a second cookie when you haven't finished the first.
