This photo doesn't look that remarkable. Just a mom and her sweet daughter enjoying a kiss.But this photo is so hard for me to capture! I was so happy when I saw this in my edit, because while I take a million photos of kids kissing their parents and each other, it often just looks like the kids are hugging or smushing their faces into the other person's face. You can hardly ever see the actual mouth puckering, and, frankly, most kids don't even know how to kiss.Or at least mine doesn't. He opens his mouth wide and then sort of sets his lips onto your face. We have miles to go if he ever wants a second date.Also? I love how blissed out this mom looks. Anyway, this was one of my favorite shots from this weekend. This little girl is a month older than Ez, and this was our third session -- that's every six months! It's so fun to see her growing up!Ok, for your internet shares of the day, I am loving this fun new song by Lizzo. You have to get through the intro (blerg), but I sure love that song. And these photos from Hong Kong are breathtaking. Enjoy!
Well hello from the land of "FINALLY! A HEALTHY WEEKEND!"We had so much fun this weekend -- including clear breathing, pain-free ears and the slow reduction of antibiotics! But in all seriousness, it sure is fun to have days off when no one is sick.We met up with friends for play dates, went out to lunch, ran errands, went for long walks, played at the park and attended our first ever Rock the Cradle (a big party put on for kids by our favorite radio station over at the art museum). Also? Remember when it snowed on Friday? It was 58 on Sunday and is supposed to break 60 today. Magda and I are walking like nuts again, and we are both thrilled with how happy it makes us.
I'm starting today's post with a few more shots of my lady here. See how her chin is getting grayer? Kids make everyone, even the dog, turn gray.
Friday was "Pajama Day" at daycare, so Ezra wore his favorite pair (sent to him from Norway!).
Magda enjoying the snow last week.
Here's Ezra on his play date. Where he refused to smile.In front there is 
If you want this kid to grin, he needs to be at home. And being served chocolate croissants for breakfast is a good place to start.
Here we are tackling our favorite slide.
And here we tackled the next biggest slide on the playground. But for some reason, he would only go down that one on his belly. Cute.
More snacks. Watching this kid eat cracks me up.
And here we are at Ezra's first "disco." This was at the radio station party where they played Michael Jackson and Taylor Swift and such. Everyone else on the dance floor, you know, smiled and danced. This kid? He watched and sucked his thumb. Ah well.
Holy moly! Every day around here is a new adventure! Some days it's sunny, all the snow has melted and we're taking evening walks. The next day? This. So much pretty snow! The best thing about this snow? It should melt tomorrow, so there's no need to shovel!I ran outside and shot a ton of photos in today's snow, but my favorite image was this one taken from our driveway. It's not the composition or anything, but rather that the snowfall was heaviest at this point, and I love seeing this many flakes in one frame.For your internet share of the day:
And we're back! Holy crap, does it feel good to (sometimes) breathe out of my nose again! You guys, that was some nasty, nasty sickness we were dealing with this week. Magda up there is the only one not on any medication right now, and she's pretty antsy to get back outside walking soon. Hopefully I can help her out with that this weekend.I am so sorry to have had to take the break from blogging, but I am feeling so, so much better -- I really needed some serious time away from the computer and to heal up, sleep, and take the medicines that the doctor prescribed.While physically I am feeling so much better than I was this past weekend (like, 1000% better), I still am not at full force, meaning we are all a little stir crazy around the house. Especially Magda. But we'll get back to normal soon (I hope).For your internet shares of the day! Oh, this first one is good.Do you know
