Picture a Day

August 23: Endless entertainment for him, downtime for me!
August 22: A sweet surprise from a sweet husband!
August 21: My sweet family!  Thanks Kathryn and Jordan for taking some pics for us!

August 20th: What happens when mommy gets the bath water ready-lots of bubbles!

August 19th: This smile...brings tears to my eyes!
I like to read this blog written by women whose faith I really look up to and I got this idea from one on them.  Instead of writing most days, she posts a picture a day representing a memorable moment.  Since a picture is supposed to speak a thousand words or something like that, I thought this would be fun.  Plus, I love, love, to take pictures, especially of my adorable little man.  And as much as I love to take pictures, and Ryan is an aspiring photographer (he is pretty good!).  All that to say, we should have lots of pics to choose from!  I think the last time we loaded pictures on the computer there were 200something and it had been just over a week (that is almost embarrassing to admit).  I wont actually post every day, but I am going to try to post several days worth every so often....My theme: Life as a New Mom- my hope is that you can relate to these pictures- some representing the more mundane moments and some pictures represent the beautiful memories that you never want to forget, and then everything in between.  Here goes the first round...

So we dated 6 years, fell in love, got married, bought a house, and then had a VERY cute baby...so starting a blog seems like the next logical step.  Here it is...hope you enjoy...
