miller is 3 months.

peek-a-boo.

 

she is so smiley!

now she is about 9lbs? and she wears 3mo onesies usually. mainly for height. size 1 diapers.

she goes to bed (she sleeps in her crib in aidan's room) at 7:30pm ish and sleeps, usually, til about 3 or 4am. sometimes she wakes up randomly at 1am or so, instead, but thats always my fault lol if i let her take too long of a nap in the evenings - she does that. i let her come into bed and eat at 4am usually... we like that ;)

still BFing like a champ. eats every 3 hrs or so - sometimes more. but it just depends if ive disrupted her sleep lol if so, she'll act like she's never eaten before and want to nurse again ;) we pretty much BF everywhere now - im pretty sure all of dfw (and ohio!) has seen my side-boob.

she has the sweetest little cry. and is happy to sad in 2.2 seconds. she'll be there laughing and giggling and then BAM. she's done and starts to pout. even when switching sides during feeding -- id better move fast enough! she also hate the car. or rather -- stopping in the car ;) so that brings tears as well. aidan sits next to her and can hand her the paci, but still.

she's super content just looking around -- and still smiles immediately when a sister gets into view. they like to tickle her and give her kisses.

my fave thing of hers are her ears. hehe they are so cute and tiny and stick out like a little muffin. and so her.

but everything about her is so tiny and perfect.

so happy 3 months, miller paige. i am loving watching you grow.

bluebonnets 2012.

this is post number 700. and i couldnt think of anything better than to post bluebonnet pics from this year :)

eta: oh and if youre wondering "where's reese?!" the answer is that she would laugh DOWN a hill *away* from the bluebonnets. and if you know her at all - that means she'd fall. lol then she broke out into a rash. good times.

35L.

so i finally did it.

i bought the canon 35mm f/1.4L

i love it. its so crisp and sharp. i had to micro-calibrate it to my 7d by +15 and now its so on spot.

i didnt have much chance yesterday to use it to its potential (bc, to be honest, its for my newborn shoots, mainly :) and while it will be perfect for places my 85mm cant fit, my newborns should be so awesome with this piece of glass. hopefully lol)

but i did shoot some candids and snapshots of the kids. to see how in, totally normal conditions if it differs that much from the sigma 30mm 1.4 i had (and sold. yippee!!)

all of these in the gameroom are basically straight out of the camera. being shot in RAW, i fixed the white balance but thats it.




look at those eyes.






lmao sawyer's like "uh give that back"


rockstar.


then i played with reese in the kitchen ;)


outside. these are more edited.


i focused on the left eye. you can see if you make it bigger.


and obvs edited lol and this is SUPER close to her face. hence the distortion-ish.


anyway, i love it. maybe i can try something better today. :)
