Photo Challenge | On Your Feet!

This week's challenge focuses on feet.  I love baby feet.  Especially my babies' feet.  They're cute and so fun to nibble and kiss...AND they don't stink! 

This is a common scene after we put our tree up each year. The girls enjoy playing under the tree much like their dad and I did when we were little kids. I still try to get under the tree. I'm a bit too big to be doing that, but in my head I'm still a little kid and I never want to grow up!

Photo Challenge | Autumn Splendor

Can you hear the crunching of the leaves as she walks through them?   It's one of my favorite sounds ever.  Besides the laughter of my girls, that is.  :)

Photo Challenge | Hands

Over at I Heart Faces they're having a photo challenge about hands.  I have two little girls and I love watching their hands as they discover and make new things.  And I love baby feet (because they don't stink), so when my baby first began discovering her feet, this was so fun to watch.  Especially because she had so many tummy rolls and it was just amazing that she could reach her toes in the first place.

Photo Challenge | Water

The girls are enjoying the pool this summer! It's hot here in Texas and the cool water is a welcomed relief!

Photo Challenge | May Flowers

This week's photo challenge is flowers! I love flowers, mostly because they mean SPRING! Since this week's challenge is not a contest, we can post more than one photo and they don't need a face!

These first two photos are from my own little Things in a Jar project:


Ah, dandelions! I love 'em/hate 'em! They mean spring, but they're a weed and they make me sneeze!

Photo Challenge | Slice of Life

How fun is this week's theme??? I love candid shots, or "slices of life"! Posed pictures are great, but the candid ones seem to capture the real person--their real smile, how they interact with each other, just REAL life!

Having two little girls, I capture a lot of candid shots. I have several of them destroying the bathroom, playing with toys, and generally being cute. But when I was perusing my archives for a shot that jumped out at me, I came across this one of my littlest girl stacking cans. It was great watching how hard she worked to balance each can, watching how she'd hold her tongue or how her lips would twist in concentration.

And what kid hasn't stacked cans? I remember a particular photo of my older brother when he was about two, standing next to a teetering stack of cans. So fun!


She ended up getting that stack to be taller than her!
