back[b]log -- Henry and his peeps

So as I previously stated. I have some serious back [b]logging to do.

Do you remember Henry the Happy Baby? He's made a couple of appearances here on the blog, but there were so many images from his session that I wanted to share, but life got a little crazy. (I'll be talking about what's been going on in my life over on my personal blog.)

To begin, I have known Henry's parents, Marty and Amy, for years. Marty and I went to college together. He and Amy have always had a very cool, hip, retro sort of style. And I can tell already that Henry has inherited this sensibility.

For starters, he has one of coolest nurseries I have ever seen...a wonderful mix of modern and mid-century design.

Heck, I want my room to look my like Henry's. (PS I also want this chair.)

Don't you love the hat and super cute onesie. His mom found them on Etsy. We love Etsy!!!

I shared this next image on my facebook page with the caption: "Hi I'm Henry, and deez are my peeps" It still makes me giggle.

Tomorrow I'll be posting a few more images of Henry and his peeps. Stay tuned. :)

I've had a very domestic weekend thus far, spending a good bit of my day running down to the basement working on laundry. A year or so ago, the Little Dog would have accompanied me on these little trips, but after a post-surgery tumble down the stairs she has learned that she can't.

So instead she, waits patiently at the top of the stairs, and as I return upstairs I get this view. It always makes me smile.

It's nice to know that someone is keeping an eye out for you.

8/5 Instagram Love!!!

Back in March or April, I got an Ipad. (I hate to admit how much I love this little piece of technology, but that is a subject for another post.) One of the first apps I downloaded was Instagram. After seeing all the examples my friends were posting on facebook, I knew I had to have it. Vintage photo borders, cool retro effects, tilt-shift options. Why wouldn't a self-proclaimed photo nerd love this App. Oh! And did I mention the price....FREE!!!! Love that!

So after several months of playing around with the app, I have noticed a strange phenomenon.

What is it about Instagram that compels me to photograph what I eat and drink?

I mean seriously. Do I think anyone really cares about this? No, but I still do it. And so do lots of other people.

It's kind of weird. Harmless but weird. I just don't get it.

Okay maybe food isn't the only thing I share on Instagram.

Remember my little buddy Riley? Well, he's two and half now. This face just about says it all. :)

8/1 my favorite tree.

I'm trying really hard to get back into the blogging habit, something I've let slide a bit for the last couple of months. For the month of August I'll be participating in a little project called the August Break. So hopefully you'll be seeing more photos show up here. I have quite the back [b]log built up from sessions I've done over the spring and summer. But, in addition to that I thought I'd share some more personal photos just for the heck of it.

Happy August Everyone!!!
