Meet Mandi and Joe. They've been on the blog before, but not yet in their own post. Mandi is one of my oldest friends. We've known each other since the fourth grade, and our lives recently have been pretty much mirroring each other. We got engaged, married, and pregnant all within a few months of each other. Now she and her husband Joe live in Dallas and are expecting their first child this summer. Joe is in medical school and has been waking up at 3 every morning to go to the hospital, so I'm sure the last thing he wanted to do was take pictures when he got home, but as you can see, he was a very good sport. Mandi had some great pictures like the one above, but she is very modest, and I figured posting even this one would be pushing the line!
I love taking pictures in general, but I especially love taking pictures of people I know, because when I capture a look or some part of that person's personality that I know to be unique to that person, it's really cool. On the other hand, when I turn the camera on people I know, especially when they're interacting with someone else, sometimes I capture a moment that I didn't expect at all and probably wouldn't have seen if it wasn't for the camera.
Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! When we got married almost three years ago, we received a grill as a wedding gift, but since we have lived in apartments and overseas since then, it has never been opened...until now. We finally broke out the grill this week, so besides it being St. Patrick's Day, breaking in the new grill was a great excuse to have everyone over.....and you know what that means! Yup, tons of pictures of Sienna!!!
Sienna and Tino were getting along great at the beginning of the afternoon. He was following her everywhere, helping her pick up golf balls....
That's right, we are going to have a baby! We've been waiting to share the news until I had my first doctor's visit, and I did this past Tues. The pictures below are from my sonogram today. Very exciting!!
