Those are both precious!!! Thanks for swinging by my blog. I read your profile, and I'm also 31 and SAHM of two. And my brother was stationed at Ft. Lewis for two years (lived in Puyallup) and is moving back to the midwest as I type. He'll be stationed in KY and I'm in Indiana. He has two young boys, too, so we're thrilled to get the chance to have them grow up together.

Your blog is adorable...love the design! Glad to have "met" you! :)

I love your pictures. Thank you for the comments. Isn't it weird how you can have things in common with people you have never met? Being a stay at home mom also it is nice to see what other moms are up to!

They are both sweet pictures. I love that age when toddlers suddenly start discovering the world when even the leaves shaking on the trees are fascinating to them.

Mandy, Dustin and Thomas said...

Love the pictures!! The camera I'm shooting with now is a Sony, Cybershot DSC-T500 Black 10.1 MO 4X Zoom Digital Camera. It's only a year old and I love it but I really want an SLR camera.

I love your son seeing the lions! Such a fun picture. The excitement jumps off the screen : ). New babies are so special and wonderful. Your sister looks awed. Is she the best Aunt ever?

That first picture is so cute!!! My little man likes the zoo too.. He usually looks at the elephants like that. :)
As for your sister - well babies are certainly wonderous and I love the way she seems to be talking it all in.

forever folding laundry said...

Adorable photos. There's nothing sweeter than seeing someone you love gaze into the eyes of your baby! (Well, maybe seeing someone you love change the really dirty diaper of that same baby, but whatever....)

Thanks for stopping by my blog! (BTW, my clips I'm selling for Cora are in my shop at www.loveydoveyclips.etsy.com).

We love the zoo.. I always get lots of wonder pics there. Thanks for sharing!

Christi said...

I love both photos. The one of your son made me laugh. :)

Karyn said...

Been laughing over your blog entries for ten minutes here in TX! Fantastic "wonder" entries, the zoo shot is just awesome, his expression is the epitomy of "wonder"! Thanks for sharing your funnies!

It's the annual conference, yknow, so we can all geek out together under the same roof. Wicked fun.

Unknown said...

Both are completely perfect wonder shots! I love them both!!

Julie Rivera said...

What a lovely pair of pictures! Your sister, though, holding your daughter is too precious! Having two sisters myself, there is something touching about seeing them with our children, isn't there?

Skeller said...

Both are wonderful entries. I especially like the little one's quite appropriate awe of the lions ;-)

tiff(threeringcircus) said...

What a gorgeous choice for both sections. I love them.

Dot O said...

I love both of your photos! You look like you DO have your hands full with Two Under Two! Mine are 29 months apart - yup it was busy!!!! Back then, I didn't realize I'd have two in college at the same time also.....Yikes!!!

Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Allison Claire said...

Wow, I love your entries! Thank you for the sweet compliments about mine. And I am so happy you like Allison Claire as a name! I have always like it. :) I also really love your header. Your blog is super cute!

Elaine at Matters of the Heart) said...

Great entries. I was reading some of your other posts, very funny.

Drew said...

You son has a true look of wonder on his face. You can totally tell he is in the moment, and in awe of the animals.

Thanks also for your kind comments on my blog. I truly am an amateur with a lot to learn. It's fun learning along with other photographers, so I really look forward to your future photo edits. You did a wonderful job with the one of your daughter on flickr.

Take care!

Rachel said...

Oh my gosh - both of those totally capture the "wonder"!

Really love the expressions and sweet "first experience" feeling of them.

Congrats!
