Little Miss Bailey seems to be growing up so quickly lately! She crawls with fierce determination and speed wherever she needs to go, pulls herself up to standing with the furniture and at the bottom of the stairs, drinks milk out of a straw cup, loves to chat and giggle, and as is evident in this picture, is independently feeding herself.

Don't you love her crazy ponytail?!

My dear husband, working hard coding a website. All I know is that I don't know what that means, but that he's really good at it!

Don't waste your life chasing after treasures that will end up stored away in boxes.
We were at Mom and Dad's today to celebrate my big brother Steve's birthday. Here he is lighting his many candles that I so graciously supplied for a perfect photo op for today!

145: Sky

This is the shot I was wanting to get a few days ago, and the clouds cooperated with my efforts today. I don't know if it turned out as well as I had hoped it would, but the sky looks amazing!

144: Faithful

"You have been more faithful than the morning sun
You have been more faithful than knowing night will come
You have been more faithful than the changing of seasons."

143: Cancel

I had a plan for what I was going to photograph today, and didn't get around to taking that shot while I still had daylight for it. Cancel that idea. Well, I guess I'll file it away for another day.

142: Bubbles

The joy of being two.
I had hoped to get a whimsical shot of one of my boys blowing bubbles in the breeze, but alas, my aperture was far too big and the shots were horribly over exposed. Chalk it up as a lesson learned for today I guess. That's what this is all about, right?

Over the past few days, Bailey has mastered the art of pulling herself up. Hopefully she'll save climbing the stairs for a few months though! Here she is trying to figure out how she can get her big brother who is watching her from the landing above.
My poor husband! And gracious, to let me post this photo :)
