camera shy, breakfast, curious george, alphabet books, and a happy morning!

ella’s going through a camera shy phase… whenever i pull out my camera, she either runs towards me and wraps her arms around me refusing to let go, puts stuff in front of her face (photo on the left), or ignores me completely. these are the best i could get…cute bed head though huh?

our morning included a sippy cup of milk (for ella), scrambled eggs and toast, a bowl of cereal, curious george, and alphabet books. e knows the letter “a” and “b” (most of the time). happy morning!

hey brit, what website platform do you use?

it’s been…a very long while.

my husband came home from school today and said, “hun, did you know that it’s been two weeks since you’ve blogged?”

truth is, i did not know it had been that long, but i did know that i was slacking. my apologies. and i also hope you will forgive the pictureless post. it’s hard for me to post without a picture. silly, i know.

anyway, things have been pretty good around here. my daughter finished her antibiotics and hopefully her next ear infection will be a ways away. don’t think that i am negative for saying there will be another ear infection, because i am just being realistic. ear infections are genetic, and my husband had terrible ear infections all the time while growing up. unfortunately, i’m pretty sure e will have her share.

i also have been feeling much better. i’ve had a couple of stomach bugs plus other things, but am on the mend, which is great, because i am shooting another beautiful wedding tomorrow. very excited.

some other exciting news (at least for our family) is that my husband has decided what he wants to emphasize his studies in (did that sound right?) b. is a chemical engineer major and will be focusing on biomedical engineering. i don’t really know what exactly that entails, but it is so fun to watch his face light up when he talks about it (or the many “its” that i don’t understand at all). we still have a while before graduation, but he will be finishing with his masters! you go babe!

well, i hope this post wasn’t too dull…i will be back with more consistent awesome posts.

truly,

brittany

Definitely not dull :) It all sounds like good stuff! Congrats to Brandon for narrowing down his emphasis! Jon should be finishing his master’s in Fall 2011 (crossing our fingers) Yay for husbands being done with school!

I hate it when babies have ear infections. Ella must have passed hers onto Spencer. He was up all night crying. So sad. Just hang in there till they can put tubes in her ears. And tell them to take everything at once, put in tubes, take out the adnoids, and the tonsils. Dallin and Eliza are different kids ever since, and I’m with you I think it is hereditary. So do you have an idea when Brandon is going to graduate. It’s a lot of hard work but so worth it, as long as he can find a job in his degree at the end. Please let Brandon know that I am worried about him, because if your face lights up when you talk about all that math and science junk something might be a little off. So just keep your on on him. Glad things are going well for you and everyone is feeling better. Have you ever tried garlic oil in the ear canal for ear infections? I know it sounds wierd but it really works!

a picture of me and brandon!

i just found a recent picture of me and brandon! this was taken at the famous family Christmas party back in December (so long ago). i’m so glad i found this, because we hardly have any pictures of us together…time to work on that.

don’t we make such a gorgeous couple? ::smiles::

i should be wearing chap stick or something though huh?

Great picture! I know what you mean about not having a lot of pictures. I always feel that way about our first 2 years of marriage. It was before we had a digital camera. Jon had his Canon that we used for most everything but it’s film. All our honeymoon pictures were shot with film too! Anyway this picture of you both is great and I think it’s a lot more natural looking that you don’t have gloss on :) It’s real life. Just like Ella and the tampons! It happens and it makes some of life’s best memories.

sick at home.

i’ve been taking care of these two for the last few days…both sick. elle has had a fever for four days, and the week before she had roseola. having a sick baby and husband is no fun.

Aw! I hope they both feel better soon :( At least Ella looks cute while being sick.

emiy - January 16, 2010 - 8:34 pm

I’m so sorry. I hope they are both feeling better. I don’t know what’s worse sick husband, who whines like a baby. Or a sick baby. Hopefully you kept your health.

getting ready for a show and Christmas morning.

i’ve been a very bad blogger….for a good reason though. i’m getting ready for a bridal expo this weekend! more info. later.

a few still from Christmas morning.

i shot a lot of video too, maybe i’ll work on that once i’m caught up on everything else…like that will ever happen!

hope you are enjoying your day!
