stripes and beans. again, im sure.

i love putting the girls into these outfits lol

they havent matched in a while so before dinner with friends tonight - i slapped them in my fave stripe sets.

it started off fun! aidan was trying to kiss sawyer, sawyer would poke her. good times.



but aidan started to get a 'tude. you can see sawyer is like "aaaiiiidaaaannnn...." trying to taunt her ;)



then sawyer made aidan feel bad. so sawyer was making her feel better.



best friends again!!



twins. once aidan crossed her legs - so did sawyer.



love.





now - to the beans. last night reese was hilarious. we made some mexican dinner (ish) and reese hollered for more beans lol

"uhhh more?"

back to reality.

so yesterday, i decided to grab the camera during dinner. lol oh dear.





made me giggle. note cobalt laying waiting for food. and sawyer crying bc she wants something she cant have. sigh.

and here's a cell pic from sunday when we got home. i was showing aidan my pics. here's her version of my tongue out/peace sign photo.


other than that? i took sawyer/reese to the park yesterday while aidan was in school. i should have known we werent going to get out of there peacefully.

this is how she looked when i told her we were going!


and this is when i told her we had to leave. LOL


she screamed/cried all the way from the park to the school. then ::lightbulb:: she quieted down when i put her in the babyhawk. lol we looked funny, but she was just tired. sweet girl.

miami and back.

phew. dear lord. what a fun/crazy/exhausting/fancy (lol) wkend.

first i'll go through the views. im not doing these by day bc then the story sucks. but i do, as per 365, have a pic for every day.

from the airplane.


from the room.




from the beach.








shopping strip in miami beach.








my outfits. what? what the hell else are you supposed to do with this big a mirror? (notice no SL. they may be kind of grainy bc there was no light over here and my ISO was high).

beach.


fri night.


my sunburned cell pic.


sat formal night :) (ej hates mirror pics lol)


cell pic from a friend at dinner.


(yes. you can laugh at my uneven sunburn ;) im okay with that. it IS funny)


ETA: ok. about the trip. EJ went for work. i spent all day by the beach or walking around or napping.... the good life. we stayed at fontainebleu :)

we got in late wed night and just headed to bed.

thurs was me, then the gym, then the beach. let me just say - for all of those people my age, my trainer was rachel robinson from road rules: campus crawl. rawr. LOL she worked me out on thurs and sat. and i could barely walk bc it was so tough. lol

friday was the same or so as thurs. except i was so hungover from thurs night that i wanted to die. so i hung out by the pool with a friend and then we had dinner at the steak place. then we put on our "regular" clothes (instead of miami beach-wear. lordy) and went by the pool. it was nice.

saturday i went to "lincoln road" where there are a ton of shops and things like that. and 3 starbucks. lol in like .5 mile. anyway, that was fun, got a cab back and went to lunch with EJ. then i went to the gym and rested up for that night. cocktail drinks at 630, paarrrrty at 730ish. good dinner, good people, i danced and eff ton (lol), and then EJ and i went to the beach for the rest of the night and swam in the ocean.

my flight was at 7am (omg kill me) on sunday and i spent most of the day in the airport. it was good to see the girls. they had so much fun at my parents house though. :)

i'll prob add to this later.

before miami.

dude. this blog is going to suck. but i have to post my pics before leaving tomorrow.

friday: wanted to play with the new camera a bit. the sun was too high though.










LOL reese.

today: my formal dress for the week. eh, it was supposed to be a 50's type dress. but i liked this one. so eff it.

bye bye xsi.

back in may 2009, EJ bought me the best bday present ever. my canon xsi.

First post with it.

i was awesome, huh? i mean, who doesnt love pop-up flash and auto ;)

after learning my camera inside and out, buying new lenses, external flash, etc -- it was time to upgrade. my little xsi couldnt keep up any long!

so i got a 7d :) and i love it.

aidan didnt feel good yesterday, but i did get this one. no speedlite. ISO 1250. um, my xsi would have looked like a cell phone pic that went through the garbage disposal over 800.

so this, to me, is awesome.



just imagine what the images will look like at, oh, ISO 100. drool. i cant wait to use it this wkend :)

oh and my pic from wednesday. its a cell pic of a cell pic. bc i got a new phone and cant get the photo i took OFF of the old one. sooooo its crap <3 LOL but look at aidan and sawyer posing. aidan was like "hey, get back to back" and i was laughing so hard.

p.s. i got the new windows phone and im obsessed.

10 months, pigtails, and cell.

on friday, reese turned 10 months!

i decided to throw some st. patty's stuff on her ;)






on sat, we went for a walk with ashley/lily and then fed ducks, etc. the girls had so much fun. cell pic of how we walk with 3 ;)


(ok, actually aidan went in the basket after 50ft of this lol)

i also had a shoot on sat -- pics on GP soon.

sunday, we went around town and ran errands. reese relaxed in her seat (cell)


yesterday, i had plans to grab my camera, but reese didnt feel good. just look at her sad face :( ignore my squished fat face.


today, aidan wanted to wear her "pigtail braids!"








and one of sawyer :)
