Love - In Full Bloom - Textures

Lailah and her Daddy - I couldn't get her to do it for the camera because she just wanted to smile and look around, but grama Lynnie has taught her a new trick...if you ask her "Where's my nose" she will reach up and touch your nose, LOVE IT! =)

 The Nectarine tree is officially in full bloom...

And our flowering pear tree...

 And various textures from out and about...

Sunshine and Smiles

Today was such a lovely day! The sun was shining and smiles were prescribed to all. Lailah LOVES being outside and is so interested in touching everything she sees. Everything works out as long as we keep a binky in her mouth, because she also has a knack for giving everything she touches a taste...I did however manage to capture a few shots without the binky...

 "Hey Mom, look I am touching the cement...and there is dirt on it...I'm gonna get dirty"

 "I just love dirt so much"

 "Forget my apple juice, I got things to explore!"

 "Hrmm, What's this?"

"I touched the dirt, la la ala"

We also ran over to Great Grandma Mary's house to see the horses for the first time. And forget the possibility of Lailah being timid..she was hell bent on seeing if she could fit her whole hand up horsy's nostrils. Luckily Grama Lynnie was there to teach her how to be soft. Skip a Sock was a real sport. Notice the changed outfit, Lailah is drooling like crazy these days, her other shirt was SOAKED - teeth are making there way I suspect.

Skip a Sock is pretty handsome, here are few shots of him by himself...

There are lots of weathered things to take pictures of at Great Grama Mary's, including colorful weeds and old barn doors...

Later in the day Dad finally got home and we continued our stay outside, it was just too nice out to pass up...

Lailah LOVES Berkley, he barks loud, is rambunctious and is about 10 times her size, but she don't care...

 "Doggy!!!"

The evening ended in the backyard where the nectarine tree is blooming. I love the things I can see when zoomed in...notice the spiders silk.

And a few other shots...

Good weather, good company...I can't complain.

Lax day with a camera and a smile...

Lailah had her dreaded eye appointment today and afterwords I left her with grammy Tam and Papa Frank to have some "me" time for a bit, with camera in tow. Here are a few shots from the day. I met an avid bird photographer while discovering a new spot - an urban fishery in the Sandy area - his work is amazing, you can check it out here: www.richbyoung.com

And speaking of Lailah, Grama Lynnie made her the most ADORABLE outfit, and gave her squeaky shoes - she LOVES them!!! Grama is one talented lady!

Life is lovely.
