I don't know that I've ever known a baby that looked so much like his father as this adorable little guy does!  This photo is over a year old, and last I saw him (last week), he's looking less like a baby and even MORE like his dad. 

"Monkey Boy"

I like this photo because at not quite 2 years old, Gavin is rarely this clingy or shy.  He climbs, runs (& runs over), and moves just about every obstacle he finds is in his way.  I've suggested that his parents strap a helmet on him to keep his trips to the emergency room down to a minimum.  Needless to say, mom & dad have their hands full keeping an eye on him.

Ben thoroughly enjoyed "food row" at the Rochester fair this summer.  We all did, actually.  Why is it that the only time I crave a corn dog is when I'm at the fair?  And the roasted corn...that's a no brainer.  Ben was partial to the milk shakes.

Are these not the cutest little feet? The rest of this little guy is pretty cute too. His 3 month pics are coming up in early October, so I'll be posting his adorable little mug soon! (Ok, mom?) ; )

I went for a drive today (I have the luxury of time these days...real estate has slowed), and on my way back in to town I stopped at the History Center grounds to take a few pictures. I'm embarassed to say that I've lived in Rochester over four years and this is the first time I've stopped there. If you haven't been there, and if you like old barns, it's kind of a cool place to visit. Great place for a photo shoot too...any takers?

"Condemned"

I decided to go for a drive today to take some pics.  I came across these little fellas and thought they'd be an interesting subject.  I was sorry I didn't have some wire clippers to set them all free...it might be a vegetarian Thanksgiving for me this year!

I recently purchased Adobe Photoshop & Lightroom...now I'll spend the next 10 years learning how to use them!  You can do amazing things with these programs.  I'll post my trials, errors & accomplishments here as I create them!

A.J & Hannah

A.J is one of the smartest kids I know.  It's truly comforting to know that I'm in good favor with the next Bill Gates!  And Hannah...well, Hannah is one of the most beautiful little girls I know.  I'm told that she's quite "spirited" when she wants to be, but I think those are just rumors being spread around the sandbox.  I mean, how could a child with such an angelic face be anything but an angel??

Mia!

This precious little girl is the newest addition to a wonderful family that I had the pleasure of finding a home for.  She's got three big sisters...she'll be well loved by all of them, I'm sure.

This is Ellie, the oldest of the quartet.  Not at all photogenic.

(I'm kidding, of course!)
