Happy Birthday, George!

This sweetie pie is turning one is just a few days, and I thought it would be great to sit him down on my pretty blanket and snap some cute photos of him sitting there, smashing his cake, pleasantly sitting still.  Ha!  Yeah, right!  This kid is on the move, people.  He didn't even want to sit still for a ride in his super awesome all-terrain wagon.  I'm glad mom and dad can keep up with him!

George loved the camera, so much so that he came chasing after me several times to grab it.  Also, he liked cake, icing, pine cones, sticks, and anything else he could manage to pick up.  What a curious kid!  He laughed and talked away, smiled and fake laughed, and showed some pretty smooth dance moves when his dad turned on the Ellen theme song.  I love this kid.  He is so happy and easy going, as long as you don't have to hold him down to change his diaper or clothes.  He has places to go!

I had so much fun running around chasing this little guy.  I hope he has the happiest of birthdays celebrating with his family and friends chowing down on some yummy crawfish and, of course, cake!

Happy birthday, George!

Ice Pops, Splash Pads, and Creeks

I've not posted in a few days, but that doesn't mean I haven't been shooting.  I'm trying to make a habit of photographing some moment every day, no matter how seemingly insignificant.  Sometimes I don't get much, but sometimes I do.   Izzy has a neighbor friend that she plays with often, and it seems like every time they play, they eat.  This particular day brought them ice pops and confetti cake.  These two love to play together and the boy has never met a stranger.  He cracks me up with his "Hey!" whenever we see him.  He makes himself at home well, too.  Such a fun kid.   Next, we had another play date with Lexie!  At another splash pad!  We have a few more to visit before we can say we've conquered them all in our area.  This one was at Steele Creek Park in Bristol.  While I like Bristol, and I like Steele Creek Park, I prefer Rotary Park in Johnson City.  Plus, there is a drainage problem here, so o

Splash Pad!

Play date number 2 is in the books!  Two play dates within one week!  Ashley, we're killing it!  :)   We met up at Rotary Park in Johnson City to have fun at the new splash pad.  When we drove up, I was a little worried about the crowd because the parking lot was -FULL- but it wasn't that bad.  We just plopped our bags and towels down in the pretty astroturf and got to playing.  It was a beautiful, hot day, so the water was a great idea.  Except I had to remind myself that I had a camera in my hands!  I found myself fascinated with the motion of the water, so I tried to get in as close as I could to capture the movement.  I was also happy to see how blissfully happy the girls were while playing.  Izzy completely let loose as soon as we arrived.  I love that this girl can have so much fun no matter what we do.  Cousin Hazen joined us, but I don't know that she had as much fun as Izzy and Lexie.  She did, however, introduce the girls to different types of fidget spinners

Muddy Puddles

Izzy loves Peppa Pig, and if you've seen the show, you know about muddy puddles.  Today was our day to play like Peppa, George, and all her friends.  Thanks to my good friend Jessie, I had a little nudge of inspiration with a pin from Pinterest, and I figured we might as well have a little fun in the rain today instead of staying cooped up inside.  I was going to hold off on posting these, but I just can't wait.    I love my girl, her smile, her personality, her fearlessness, her strong will, and her playfulness.  I hope she always stays the same!
