Family Photos

Wendy from Lensart photography (a neighbor of my mom who did our wedding pictures) took some family portraits for us - finally.  These are the first photos we have done with our family and it was a lot of fun.  I thought I had posted these a long time ago but looked back through and realized they weren't on the blog yet.  They were taken in September/October of '15.  We love them!

School pictures

We are soooo lucky!  We know the people who take Jaydon's school pictures (we went to school with their daughters and they used to take our pictures).  So every year they not only take a fabulous pic of Jaydon but they also do a family photo and this year they did individual ones of the other two.  We are very pleased with how they turned out.  Big shout out to K.I.D.S Photography http://www.kidsschoolphotos.com/ and the Grant family.

Jaydon - 5.5 yrs

Lucy- almost 3 yrs

Kaitlyn - 4 mo.

Kid Cam

Lucy has now started getting a hold of the camera and taking a bunch of photos.  When Jaydon started this around age 2 his photos were often of his mouth and body parts, for Lucy she likes to take photos of her animals and the things around her.  Here they decided to play on my bed, throw the pillows off and top them with a ton of their stuffed animals and then jump off the bed onto the cushiony landing.

Lucy has decided to start taking pictures now too, just like her big brother.

Going through the camera I realized it was time for another installment of "Jaydon Cam"  

He took this photo of saying goodbye to Granny and Papa on Skype, blowing kisses!

Our annual family photo

Our holidays were a complete whirlwind this year and the entire month seemed to get away from us.  While we had a fabulous time on all of our adventures we didn't have time for our annual family photo in front of the Christmas tree, so while this was technically taken in the New Year we wanted to post the one decent pic we got.  I think it is getting harder and harder to coordinate the kids and cats!

More Jaydon Photography

Jaydon now has a bit better understanding of the camera and so instead of just taking really bad photos of whatever he is near (though he still does that at times), he wants to take pictures of items he likes. So one day he wanted to take a picture of his Teddy and the robot we built. These are pictures he took, I just sort of pushed him back far enough to get the image in the screen.

And another real close up, can you guess what it is?

If you guessed Higgins you are correct, Jaydon wanted to take a picture of his cat.
