Drama in Black and White

It's time for another I Heart Faces challenge - "Dramatic B&W".

Judah is teething - again. Half the time he is screaming his head off and the other half he is holding his little cheeks and drooling. He has been miserable lately and I can't wait for this to be over for him. In this picture he was watching his older brother try and cheer him up. It nearly worked - for a brief moment.

Head over to I Heart Faces and browse through over 1000 other dramatic black and whites. You'll be glad you did; there are some amazing entries this week!

Fort Thompson

Last Saturday the boys headed up the hill and into the woods. They stayed there all day long working on a fort. I love taking pictures of the boys when they are hard at play.






What's better than a picnic in the woods?

A swing on a vine - of course!



Then it was back to work.

What a blessing to have such a warm weekend!

I Heart Faces - Angles

This is my little man of steel, Josiah. I took this picture because he felt like a real Super Hero yesterday after his 4 year check up. We went in not realizing that he would be getting three shots; we came out... laughing. He didn't shed one tear, he didn't wince with pain, he didn't even seem to care about the three needles that were pushed into his little arms.
When it was all over he just said "Now I am one tough man"! Yes indeed!

You can check out more great angle photos over at the I Heart Faces website.

Where have I been?

I just realized that I missed the whole month of February. Oops. It was a short month in days but it didn't feel short at all. My poor Judah spent 5 days in the hospital with pneumonia and dehydration. That was pretty tough but the day I got to take him home was awesome! Thanks to all who prayed for us and came to see us at the hospital. It meant so much.

While we were in the hospital the snow came, and came, and came. The kids loved it and got rewarded for it with an entire week off school! I however, wanted to relocate.

This is Josiah trying to figure out how to get back to the house after playing hard all day. He looks tiny in all that snow!
We had a sleep over in the middle of the week!


The next week Adam and I got to take a little trip to Charlottesville, Va. What a beautiful part of the US! I somehow only managed to get this one picture,though.

Elijah played basketball...

... and we also painted 4 of the rooms in our house and plan to keep going this month. Here are some of the girls from Women Who Wine posing in front of the new dining room/ kitchen color.

Whew! What a month!

Bundled Up

The theme at I Heart Faces this week is "Bundled Up". I decided to use this picture of my pretty little niece, Trinity. She was running and jumping in the snow and having a blast!
