Little Bean just turned three. I love him growing up and I hate it at the same time... so bittersweet! Everyone comments on those lashes, and I must admit they are envy-worthy. (Telltale sign of allergies; who knew? Note peanut-allergy bracelet below. When you ask him about it, he pipes up with his line: ON'T FEED ME EANUTS!)
All summer long I had been waiting to do some photos of blue-and-yellow-color-coordination... I bought this outfit for Alice when she was first born and we suddenly realized she wasn't going to fit into it if we didn't hurry up. So we scurried around one Saturday evening in September and Mandy found this AWESOME little patch of goodness at a park near their house. The sun was setting at just the right time which made for perfect light. Might I also add, these two just redecorated their living room this year in pale blue and yellow and I keep thinking this photo, blown up into a large canvas, would be a lovely complement to it. :)
Check out Bean chillin in the picture below. Cracks me up.
Me with the munchkins:
I was so proud of this snap! It totally reminds me of a Laura Siebert edit (previous post is all about her workshop!)
We attempted one of all of us, but by that point Alice was sort of over it and Carter was fishing for his promised candy-bar reward (back in the car.) Result:
I'm always curious as to who reads my blog (particularly because my posts are so infrequent, which is a HUGE blog no-no that I would love to curb, but probably won't, if I'm being totally honest) so I'd be really excited if you left me some love in the comments below!
Love his blue shirt with his eyes. Adorable. And your expression in the last pic.

You KNOW I read! Never knew the long lashes could be a sign of allergies. Interesting! Beautiful captures.
