Jaw-Dropping Fun!

Besides cleaning up the yard, I also had 2 photo sessions and a family get-together.

Photo Session #1. Happy 1st Little E! You are a beauty! I can't wait to get to get to know you and your mommy more through the Mom's Club!


Photo Session #2 - Engagement. It was really nice to break away from children for a little while. This beautiful couple is getting married next month. What a joy to work with! You two are amazing! Thank you for the break and thank you for your service in your jobs. Congrats!

There are more where these came from. These are just my favorites! The rest will have to be a surprise!

...and the family get-together. I told you jaw-dropping! This is my bro-in-law holding his birthday present from his wife. I've never seen a man so happy to get a skirt...I mean...a...kilt:) You look great, Chad! Happy Birthday!

A New Pet


Saturday was a beautiful day spent mostly outside cleaning up the yard before we move. Scott caught a Praying Mantis for Jonah and it has been so much fun to have around. We will go and catch a cricket and it will eat the whole thing in no time flat.

Dana's Children's Expo

Congratulations to Stephanie Hill (the Usbourne lady)!
You won a free 30 minute session! Call me!

Last night I had the privilege to spend the evening with some wonderful women at Dana's Daycare (http://danasdarlingsdaycare.com/). She held an expo with the following vendors:

Coupon Sense - Cheryl - cdpedro@msn.com (I will be doing this.)
Noah's Ark - Dana
Story Time Felts - Awnya - http://www.time4felt.com/
Usbourne Books - Stephanie - stephaniesantrizos@hotmail.com

It was such a pleasure to meet everyone there. Thanks! Thank you, Dana! What a great idea!
Dana - I'll be posting some pictures from today (the zoo) sometime next week. The boys loved it!

Where's Paula?


It's been another crazy week in the Stiller family. Last weekend, I did a maternity shoot as a present and then stayed for a baby shower. What a wonderful bunch of women! I'll get those pictures on as soon as my screen goes back to normal. AHHH!
Trinity can now stand by herself and has gotten her 2nd tooth. Simon seems to have calmed down a little bit. I see the world of difference in him by spending one on one time. It must be his love language. I have a cute story about Jonah. I'll have to put his picture up to go with it later.
Yesterday we went to the playground. I caught a bright yellow moth and gave it to Jonah to play with. He was playing and playing with it and named it Mothy. It was time to go and Jonah went to go put on his shoes. He set down Mothy and Mothy flew away. Jonah burst into tears and cried all the way home while I tried to console him saying it was probably lunch time and his mommy was calling him to go eat. This didn't work much so I suggested that he draw a picture to remember Mothy. He drew Mothy and then he drew himself with a big smile on his face. Slowly his eyes started to fill with water as he crooned, "and this was me when I was happy."

Date with Jonah


Jonah and I went and spent some time together at the park. He has been just cracking me up lately with what he says and does. He likes to laugh really hard and loud. He likes to play computer games and has a super spy gadget that does everything. Here he is a couple days ago when he was working on his letters (super spy gadget in pocket.) Is he not adorable? He's definately Scott's son...heehee! I think I'll keep him.

I DON'T WANNA BE A MAN!


After clipping on his little tie and buttoning up his vest, I sighed with delight at my little man. "Look at you, little man!" I cheerfully exclaimed. He looked up at me sheepishly with his bright blue eyes and long eyelashes and replied, "I don't wanna be a man, Mommy!"
Nonetheless, he did great getting his pictures taken tonight. He loved the flowers and used them like a sword. Whatever works, right?

Time is flying...


We must be having fun...heehee! Scott got home Friday and said, "Is it Friday already?" We lost track of the week. I stuck my foot in my mouth mocking the monsoon because we got rain about every night for 2 weeks! Everything is green and beautiful. There is this big purple bush in our front yard so I had to take Trin out and snap some pics. She loves being outside and cries when we come in. I'm going to try to get Jonah and Simon out this week for some 1 on 1 time and maybe get some pics with the bushes also!
