Yesterday

Yesterday we stopped by my mom’s house after Young Mom’s Bible Study.  I made the kids pose in front of the azaleas before we went inside to mooch lunch.

I sure do love these cuties.  It’s nearly impossible to get them all looking at me at the same time though.

This is the same patch of azaleas I took this picture in front of last year.  It was actually about 13 months ago, but sheesh… what a difference a year makes!

There are two entirely new humans in the picture!

And speaking of new humans, my very amazing mother let me leave ALL MY CHILDREN at her house so I could go snuggle my new nephew!

I told Christiana to get cozy on the couch while I grabbed the baby and went up to peek at his nursery.  When I walked in, there was this AMAZINGLY GORGEOUS light coming in the window that I just HAD to take some pictures in!  Thankfully I had my camera with me (see azaleas above), so I had a mini photo shoot with Mr. Drew while his momma slept.  Great fun was had by all!

Now… I am only just beginning to discover how to get what I want from my camera, but I have really not learned much at all about editing my images.  I’m seriously considering an online class in Photoshop Elements later this month, after which I will likely re-edit all of these.  :)

Since I can’t wait that long to share the cuteness though… here are some of my favs from our impromptu photo shoot!  (Each has been slightly edited by my clicking some likely-looking buttons in PSE.)

I HAD SO MUCH FUN!!!!!  He was so sleepy and floppy and let me do just about anything I wanted to, provided I moved slowlyish and there were lots of snuggles in between.  When I grow up and learn lots more about photography, I want to do this all the time!!!!  I think it will be a very good way to get a baby fix when I don’t have any anymore.  :)
