having friends with babies is awesome, and thankfully more and more of our friends seem to be popping out wee ones these days. so when we all suddenly found ourselves with no saturday plans, we made it a point to get our buns to the park for some hangouts of the very best kind... the kind that involve PICNICS! oh summer, you're already looking so very good!

"a portrait of my daughter, once a week, every week, in 2013."
penny: this past week we had our struggles. you're realizing that you can have an opinion on things, like sitting in your chair for breakfast, and you've decided to voice said opinions LOUDLY. while i do love that you're realizing you're an individual, it's made for some pretty rough mornings. luckily you seem to be understanding that some things are not negotiable, and you're giving your mama a bit of a break. and that brings us to this weeks photo. this was the first day that we didn't have to struggle over the seat, and you made silly faces during your entire meal. i love you so much no matter what sort of mood you're in, but on this particular morning my heart could have burst!
linking up with jodi
from last week... i love the portraits of these three kiddos. they each stand out as individuals even set against the same backdrop.
pool days...
happy happiest summer to all! last week we officially kicked off the season with some afternoon pool parties. there is absolutely nothing better then spending a hot afternoon poolside with your best buds, some cocktails, and a bit of southern sunshine.





and wouldn't you know it, we're doing it all again today. so penny, feel free to wake up from your nap any time now. we've got some splashing to do!
