back from vacation

i think this is the longest i've gone without a post. july was a crazy month: big deadlines at work, we moved the studio (picts to come), and we went to NC.

between my dad + i, i think there was 3 thousand picts taken. here is one of them.

party!

we had a small celebration for mara's special day. i spent all night baking a princess cake for my princess...+ even splurged + ordered some fireworks for her day. (yes, i use that joke every year)

happy birthday mara!

this posting is a little late. mara bday is on the 4th.

jasper talks to uncle ben + aunt melissa!

daily pic

this one is for the family yelling at me for more pictures.

jasper is taking steps!

i hope to find the time soon to post video. in the meantime, here are some stills. jasper has finally begun to venture out of the arms of his parents. he's up to about 6 steps before landing abruptly on his cushioned butt.
