Meet the newest member of our family — Oscar the puppy!  He is a miniature Daschund!  He is SO cute!  And so disgusting right now because he is eating a lizard…in the house!  YECH!  Good thing he is so cute!

PS> This is not the surprise.

No, I’m NOT pregnant — so stop thinking that!

There is something new and fun happening in our blogworld — stay tuned!  It should be soon!

Last night I attended the Annie Leibovitz lecture/book signing.  I was inspired to take more pictures of my family and really document our lives.  I am a photographer but I am a mother first.  What better gift could I give my children than to document their lives?  I hear moms telling me all the time, Oh, I wish I could take good pictures of my kids. I can.  In fact, I get paid to take pictures of other people.  I have never been great at documenting my own kids’ lives.  I’m not promising to take/post a picture every day of the kids, but ideally that’s what I would like to try and do. 

These are not going to be pretty portraits of my family.  These are going to be what we do in our lives.  There may be runny noses and messy floors.  There may be drooling babies and crying boys.  There will be lots of smiles and happy times.  I am trying to document our life how it happens.  To quote a friend of mine I’m trying to shoot “between the smiles”.  I want to capture our life, one day at a time.  These likely won’t be lit with a flash.  They will be very raw images. 

This morning we did everything with sunglasses on.  He is funny!

He couldn’t see his waffles with them on.

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHCCCCCCCCCHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

This is the world’s happiest baby!  He is SO cute!

Awww…

I have never seen him pull up like this except in his crib and I caught it!

He LOVES to do this, we call it Sterling Flying!

That tongue is out all the time!

What’s that, Mommy?

Cute!  Check out all the teeth!

I am trying to get a new blog up and running, so I took a bit of a break from this one but I haven’t got the new one up yet. 

I am busy with work right now getting family photo shoots done for Christmas.  SO much has been going on!

I wanted to write about this before I forget about it.  Harrison is  RIOT right now.  He is way too funny.  One of his favorite sayings right now is: “Oh me goodness.”  It is ADORABLE! 

Sterling needs a new crib.  We found one at Target we liked but they don’t keep anything in stock.  I’m SO glad we didn’t buy that one.  We found one at Babies R Us that is WAY nice.  I LOVE it.  http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3245139 

We are really looking forward to a small Thanksgiving this year, just Brian’s cousin and his wife.  I’m excited to actually get out my REAL silverware…we have yet to use it and I’ve had it for six years.  And I got new plates too, so exciting!

I promise a new and exciting blog is in the works! 

You can see my work stuff here: www.dbimagesblog.wordpress.com and I have been busy!  Not everything I’ve been doing is on there. 

Have a GREAT Thanksgiving and take time to remember what you are thankful for!

I’m looking for a girl that designs the adorable blogs that are custom-made for you. The picture in the header is a cartoon and it is of you and you can order it. I once got a quote from her and now I can’t find it. Help!!!

Sterling is crawling!!!!!!!!!

fondant covered cake. This is a cake for Brian’s cousin’s wife’s baby shower tomorrow. I wanted to finish tonight in case I screwed it up I could go and find a cake tomorrow. Thankfully it turned out pretty good, I think. It is a French Vanilla cake with French vanilla pudding and strawberry pie filling.

We visited a little pumpkin patch near us and took some pictures.  These are only two of the million I took.  I will post more later when I have had time to go through them.

I did my first wedding fair yesterday!  Below you will se a picture of our booth!

Also, there is a picture of Sterling…this morning i heard Harrison say, “No, Sterling, no bankie!”  Hahahahahaha….
