Moments

Today, we had a few moments I wish I'd just stopped to take a picture of.

Lizzie was feeding Cole.  She set aside the bottle and tried to make him smile and laugh, with great success.  I loved the way her waifish hair hung over both of their faces, a curtain behind which echoes giggles.

Evie snuggled Cole in her beanbag.  Both were just completely content.

While we were making cookies, Carson started making faces at the stainless mixing bowl and laughing at himself.  I smiled at the way that, before he actually started making faces, he leaned way far back, then watched his eyes get big as he brought his face closer to the bowl.

Aaron's niece came to visit for a little bit today and there was a moment when she completely forgot she was being babysat and just enjoyed being with my kids.  I wanted to capture that bust-out-laughing moment between cousins!

I love the small moments I can take away from each day.

P.S.  You know that moment when you look at your photo folders on the computer and you realize that, HEY! you need to get some past months posted before the memories fade from the moments?  I just hit that.  More posts soon, since if I wait for the end of summer, I will have a whole other month of 'life' and will just be completely overwhelmed.  Coming soon!
