First off, I admit that it’s my fault. They were taking a little break from playing to watch Jack’s Big Music Show (which I LOVE by the way) and I thought I’d also take a little break and work on designing the new blog that I’m hoping to have built sometime in the next millennium. I know I’m a bad mom but I do let them watch tv from time to time while I go do some work and so this is my payback. It’s really not a big deal in looking at this picture but I couldn’t bring myself to take a picture of the real victim – our couch (which we coincidentally had professionally steam-cleaned this morning). For those of you who are supremely concerned about my couch, I think the stains are out but I couldn’t resist taking this picture of my little guy. He taught me a few very important lessons today and that is 1) he is now capable of reaching anything on the kitchen counters and what he can’t reach, he can get his sister to, 2) he will eat a quarter of a pack of Oreos before coming to show me the mess he made, 3) he inherited his father’s very annoying habit of licking out the center first, and lastly 4) he can flash one of these little grins and all is forgiven! Why do they look their cutest when they think they’ve been mischievous?!?!?!?

and if you’re wondering why I watermarked a picture of my own son, it’s because my mother keeps trying to illegally download pictures of her grandkids. Just joking – I just created a new watermark and I was curious to see how it looked.

Hello! I found your site via the fabulous JinkyArt blog. First of all, I just wanted to say that your kiddies are SO ADORABLE! Your little girl is just so pretty and your little man looks very handsome! I also had a look at your photography site and I love your work!
I am a mother myself and I have just started my own business as a portrait photographer for families. Like you, I have been a hobbyist for a long time. I’m still very new and a bit wobbly!
I am inspired by your work! Keep it up and I will be coming back here. most def!
