Valentine's Day

This year for Valentine's Day, I started working for Aaro Gard at Aaro's Flowers, a flower shop down the block from our house. I'm going to be working "holiday" hours for her, helping with major flower holidays, proms and weddings. It was fun to do this again and makes for a nice "occasional-time job." Here's a selection from the many arrangements I did over a three day period.

14 months

14 month photo shoot on 2-9-14, dressed for Valentine's Day.
 Old Beary, old pal......yes, Lydia, that's where your brother pulled off a button.

  Stink face....somber face.

 Getting sleepy, insert thumb and blankie!

 Brother Abram and I making her laugh by pulling her thumb out each time she pops it in her mouth!

 Still funny....ok, gimme the camera!

 I don't look forward to breaking this thumb sucking habit...I MUCH preferred the paci!


 More thumb battle.




 Abram's contribution to the photo shoot.

 My favorites are always the pictures of her in the little rocking chair:) 

                                                             "The Good one"
 
So, as I write this, Lydia is past 15 months and I honestly can't remember what "milestones" she'd reached a month ago, so I'll just list those on her next post. Looking back, I didn't document all the "stats" as well for Abram as I have for Lydia. So this is just a photo shoot...nothing wrong with that! I will say that I wish I had a nicer camera. This photoshoot was all on the phone camera and there is just so much blur. Oh well, I'll just keep taking a bunch and hope for one good one:)
