Picture Day

Today, I took pictures of my nephews and neice. This post showcases Kyle and Mackenzie. They are Courtney's and Aaron's kids. (Courtney is Clint's older sister). The "photoshoot" was...interesting. We had a lot of fun. The kids weren't so into it, at first. We promised we'd take them to the park if they'd just say "cheese!!" I got a few decent shots near the water, but struck gold at the park. I just followed the kids around while they played, begging they say "cheese!" and blow kisses to mommy before they would slide down the slide. Kyle actually got really into it, and started demanding I take his picture towards the end of our shoot :) Enjoy the pictures...its only a few. I ended up taking 242(!) pictures! I ended up with about 60 really good ones.

Mackenzie. She's absolutely gorgeous. and this is one of my favorites from the day :)

Kyle and Mackenzie. Love this picture :)

We begged, and begged, and finally bribed to get this picture. Its not perfect, but I really like it :)


She's such a pretty girl. That smile says "I'm up to no good". She's a doll :)


My handsome boy! Kyle is getting so big! When I first started dating Clint, Kyle was almost 6 months old. He'll be 5 this year. Time needs to slow down.





I've been using my friends and family as guinea pigs, while I develop my "talent". I'd love to make photography a business one day. I'm slowly building some sort of portfolio. I've also been considering taking a class or two at the local community college. Nothing I'd be doing anytime soon, but its a possibility for the future :)

More Pictures....

Have I mentioned lately that I love my camera?? Because I LOVE my camera. I got some great pictures at the hospital yesterday. Then I had a lot of fun editing them. This little guy is going to get sick of my constantly sticking a camera in his face. But, these are the moments we'll want to remember forever. So, deal with it :p I love taking pictures, and I'm so excited to take his "newborn" photos in a couple weeks. I'm also so excited to take pictures of my other neice and nephew (Mackenzie and Kyle)...which WILL happen sooner than later, Courtney! I haven't forgotten!! :) At any rate....here are some more fun pics of Slade :)


Daddy feeding Slade for the first time


He was attempting to suck on his hand. SO cute!! love his cute little lips. adorable.

Isn't he the sweetest?


With Mommy, right after birth.



Daddy's HUGE hands, with Slade's small body. You know, he was surprisingly small for a baby of 8 pounds. He's so....dense. Solid. Its not really baby fat....just baby. :p

Slade Romney Farnsworth

Slade Romney Farnsworth
Slade was born on February 15, 2010, at 12:17 pm. He was 8 pounds, 20.5 inches. Both Mommy and Baby are happy and healthy. Daddy is extremely proud. As are aunts, uncles, grandparents, great grandparents....to say this little guy has captured our hearts is an understatement.
I took a couple (thousand) pictures....here's just a few.

Mommy and Baby bonding


Pretty much the cutest face ever, right? I agree
Daddy is so proud!!



Love him. So much. He's so beautiful. Sweet. Content. A very good baby :)


One of our favorites of the day. This is daddy's thumb in comparison to Slade's fist.
