340. No eye contact....

I didn't take any photo's today so here is one I never shared the day it was taken.

339. Trees....

This one is from Sunday afternoon during our walk. it turned out to be a nice day after the rain in the morning so we had to get out some.

338. Emma....and Sofia....

Emma and Lidija came to visit us this morning which was perfect because Maurice was at work and Emma's dad was out of town so we had nothing to do. I'm just amazed how well Sofia and Emma plays together...it's so easy for most of the time:) We tried out lots of toys and went to lunch together. Another reason why I loooove company is that I can take pictures of someone else beside Sofia...I just feel like I have so many pictures of her:)
Anyway, I have to post some of Emma's many faces since I love close ups. Emma was showing me both her serious face and her happy face. She's just so photogenic...I wish I was too:)
A serious girl.

Here's my happy girl....love me some big smiles.
An even bigger smile:)
Testing out some toys. It's always fun to play with other peoples stuff.
She does love music.
Here's Lidija helping out Sofia.
I'll show you Emma, then...
You can show me.
Sofia said she wanted to take a picture with Emma, but they were so serious until Lidija and I started singing to get some smiles. I bet we didn't look as cute as they did.

337. Kite....

Maurice bough Sofia a kite today because it was so windy and he thought she would like it. It was not as easy as we thought because the kite fell down a few times and got stuck in some trees. There was also some crying from Sofia when things didn't go her way:) It was also full sun so it was hard to get pictures without huge blowouts. Anyway her eis some of them.
She really like to help with stuff now and this was not an exception:)


Look at Sofia's hair...I said it was windy:) She had to run so hard to move as fast as she wanted too.

336. Happy Birthday....

I started this blog one year ago today. I'm really proud of myself for doing as many posts that I did. I didn't quite make 365, but I was also in Norway for a month and couldn't post everyday..then I also had some days I just didn't feel like posting. Anyway, I am so excited and happy that I made it this far!!!!!! I'm really excited I did it and I learned so much in the the past year. I would recommend this to anyone that wants to get better at photography. I think it's the best and cheapest way to learn:)

335. Bubbles......

Here's what we did when we got home from work today. She started off her normal serious self, but ended up forgetting about the camera and having a lot of fun. I hardly ever share this many picture because it's editing involved, but today I decided that I really didn't want to worry about it so I hardly did anything. I think there was 2 pictures that was cropped a little because of big blown spots above her, but the rest wasn't cropped at all. There are some inconsistency in her skin tones, but I'm not even worried about that:)It was nice and warm so I wasn't worried about her getting a little wet.

334. Bath time....

I guess like any mom I love a big smile....unfortunately it's so hard to get one with my camera from her. Normally when she takes a bath she's in a n excellent mood and it's a great time to try. I was lucky and got this...it doesn't get any bigger than this:)

A little more serous, but still ok.
Now, this is the faces I see often. What's up with this serious face? I didn't expect to see so many of these until she was a teenager:)
On a side note....when I picked her up from daycare today she told me she's a super spy. She got to be a good one because neither Maurice or I realized that she even was a super spy:) Her exact words were: "Mamma, I'm a happy super spy". She cracks me up.
