The fact that they're turning three has had me picking up my camera more often, with a desire to capture this precious time... and it really is precious. They are so much fun right now. I feel like we've gotten over the worst of the tantrumming twos (knock on wood) and I am getting such a kick watching them learn and grow and enjoy eachother's company. They truly are a joy right now. Garrett is funny and goofy and a sponge for information. Paige is sweet and nurturing and artistic. Garrett will sit and carefully put a puzzle together until he has it all figured out. Paige will sit and carefully color a picture and can totally stay in the lines! But most of all it's so cool to watch them become such great friends (even amidst the perpetual sibling fighting).
I took some Superman pictures of Garrett after seeing a similar thing done by another photographer. I had a whole series of pictures in mind that I wanted to do, but my model was only willing to give me about five minutes of shooting time. But I really love how they turned out. This is so Garrett... fun and quirky.
I also love this picture I got of Paige because it's everything she is... quiet and thoughtful. She has done an AMAZING job with potty training and decided right after Christmas that she was done with diapers. Within a week she was completed trained... during the day AND night. I'd love to take credit for it... but realistically is was pretty much all her doing.
Molly is doing great. She's enjoying school and learning so much. Her second tooth is just about out, and a third is getting wiggling on the top. I'm looking forward to seeing her toothless grin! Here's a picture of her with her "mermaid hair" (after sleeping with wet braided hair). She's becoming such a beautiful little girl.
So that's the latest around here. Not much going on but I'm enjoying having more time available to take pictures of my own kids. We're really looking forward to my parents' visit next week and the kids are counting down the days!
