Girl Outnumbered

 

Hello All! It’s been a long while since I have updated the blog. That is my one goal this year is to update my blog more. The older the boys get and the busier we are with nightly homework and reading, the harder it is to take a break and upload images. I promise I will try my best to stay on top of it in 2014. This year I decided to take my photography journey back to where I started, which is documenting our little life. So, I will be doing a project 52 with My Four Hens, one picture a week for an entire year. Here are my first few weeks, minus one that I accidentally didn’t save or accidentally deleted.

Dear Dylan,


I seriously can't even begin to explain how much I love you! Three years ago you unexpectedly made your grand appearance, you were ready for the world. You have been such a little blessing to our family. These last three years you have been joyous and eventful! You have come a long way from that little 6 pound preemie baby we brought home. I love you, more than words can say.

You are becoming more independent every day. You like to be able to walk on your own without holding my hand or sit in the stroller. You want to buckle your own seat belt and take off  your own shoes. You are finally potty trained! Every passing day I see you becoming my big boy.



You are probably the smartest little dude I know. You have known your alphabet and numbers from an early age. You love to learn, read, explore and use your imagination. You are inquisitive and talkative.






Big Brother Diego is your best friend. You look up to him and want to do everything he does. You definitely miss him when he is not home. I love the relationship you guys have.



You finally got your first haircut! It only took us 3 years to do it! You definitely hate having your hair brushed, but you love your hair.


You can be quite a handful. You have your own mind, and you definitely let us know that. You tend to be serious, but the silliness in you always sneaks out. You are the adventurous boy, sometimes even the rebellious one.  You also are a little dramatic and can throw quite a tantrum.


You are the sweetest, cutest, cuddliest little love. You love your Mommy and Daddy. You love to snuggle with us and sleep in our bed.


I'm definitely looking forward to all the new changes, new things you will learn, and watching you turn into a big boy this next year.

  I  love you little man, to the moon and back!

 I took these photos of Diego back in late September, I just have  not gotten around to posting them. I like to say Diego is my faithful model, but really he requires a little convincing sometimes. Other times he WANTS to have his picture taken and suggests poses that he wants to do. This particular evening I wanted to take some photos at golden hour, so I convinced Diego to get dressed, brush his unruly hair(we are trying to grow his hair out) and show me his "moves" as he says. We headed outside to the alley behind our house where the homes and trees behind blocked the sun. He loved being able to act like a ninja, dinosaur hunter, power ranger, and a super hero- a combination of everything he loves, and was happy to oblige his picture crazy Momma. After he took his mandatory photos, I sat on the ground and just let him play whatever he was playing and capture my little boy, just being a boy. I love his crazy imagination.

Dear Diego,

 You are the best big brother I could hope for. Mostly you love bossing your little brother around and sometimes claiming his toys as yours. The love you have for him is undeniable. At night you make sure you find his "teddy" so that he can sleep. You teach him how to fix things or do certain things, like jumping off the couch. You defend, protect, and guide him with such care and love. I LOVE to watch you boys run around the house playing hide and seek or building forts out of blankets and pillows. I know you will always be best of friends.



 .

 You love to model for Mommy and have your picture taken! It took a while for you to get to this point but it was well worth the wait. Now you come to me and ask me to take a picture of you playing with your toys. You even have some good poses down. Not only do you like to model, but you love to be behind the camera and take pictures as well


 Your also quite the comedian! You love to tell jokes and most of the time they don't make any sense. You are also very witty. Sometimes I feel like I'am talking to a teenager with the things you come up with.



 Your not the greatest eater. You are quite the picky eater and you will refuse to try anything new. I can't even bribe you to eat new things. You are perfectly content with your staples of fruit, pasta, pizza and chicken.
