Looking to step outside of the box a little bit this weekend, I took this picture of our reflection in the mirror. It didn’t turn out exactly as I’d hoped (let me tell you it’s damn hard holding a 25 lb. baby in one arm while holding a heavy SLR, arm outstretched in the other), but I am still rather fond of it. :)
You can see more from Best Shot Monday participants over at Mother May I.
Stumble it!

What a sweet shot! It seems as though they stop falling asleep on you all of a sudden with no warning, but you have this lovely memory.

I think it’s a great photo of a great moment. Wow, he’s a big guy! He weighs almost as much as my 4 year old (she’s tiny though!)

What a nice moment captured. My “extended out with one arm” shots NEVER come out that good!
I was just in the same position not half an hour ago. H was having a hard time calming down into nap mode today – over tired. We rocked for awhile. So peaceful.
(when he stopped crying, that is!)

I treasure these rare pics of me and the kids – imperfection and all! I framed on of Q and I that’s totally OOF even ;) It IS hard to get a pic of yourself.
