The T Family, Ligonier PA

With two adorable (and active!) little girls ,the T family has their hands full.  We met this winter for some snowy portrait fun.  The girls were far more interested in the snow and exploring their new surroundings than having their picture taken, so everyone was encouraged to just have some fun with it.  We made snowmen on a blanket, tossed children and made sure to sneak in some cuddles.  Take a peek! 

H's Date

With two young sons at home, I find that I am constantly torn between the two of them.  There are not enough hours in the day (and not enough coffee.. or sometimes wine).  

I'm going to start making a point to spend more individual time with each of them.  No cell phones, no distractions, just us, away on our own adventure.  I began with H.  He and I have hit a wall.  Too much cold this winter, too much inside, and too much getting on each other's nerves.  We didn't have big plans, all he really wanted was to try to find a lunchbox (the special kind with a hinge!), and to have pizza at the food court in the mall.  I felt this was a wish I could easily grant.  

So we went out.  On a date.  He had a little money to spend that was given to him for Christmas, and we decided we would find something for him, and for N so he wouldn't feel left out.  We browsed toys, rode escalators, ate some pizza, and finished up with some ice cream and a photo booth.  I said yes, instead of no.  It was a lovely evening with just my baby, who is not a baby.  A simple break from our daily life that we hadn't realized how much we needed.
