Valentine's Day Dinner

We had Valentine's Day dinner with Brooke, Scott, and Meadow.

It worked out well. It's been an interesting evolution in our friendship. We used to have dinners together often. That happened less frequently after Olive was born and happens much less frequently since Meadow and June arrived. We occasionally babysit so the other couple can go out for things like anniversary. So I guess it seemed kind of fitting that if we were all going to stay in that we were all together.

Tyler and I were doing some house work on Saturday - well mostly Tyler. But it interrupted our normal weekend flow so dinner caught me off guard. I was more than okay with the idea when Brooke suggested we come over for heart shaped pizza. Perfect!



June hung out on Meadow's rocking moose for a while. He doesn't ride ours that much. Interesting.







I quickly grabbed my camera when I noticed that no one but Meadow and June were seated yet. At opposite ends of the table, both in their hanging high chair things, eating pizza. Kind of like an awkward Valentine's Day date... or something. So close.. yet so far away..



Meadow's view of June.



June's view of Meadow.



Meadow snatched my phone and kept it almost the entire night. By the time I sneakily got it back.. it was locked for 27 minutes. That's a new record!



Yummy hearts.



June was banging things around in the kitchen while we enjoyed cake.



Olive found a doll and had a great time pushing her, and some others that she brought, around in a toy stroller. I forgot the word for stroller for a minute there.



Olive and June ended the night by snuggling and pretending to sleep in Meadow's play tent.

valentiny. { frost on flower }

June was so kind as to help me out this morning by snuggling up on a blanket on my set up. I wanted to test some lighting and try to get a few more photos of June and Olive. Olive was less cooperative and informed me that she was finished after just a couple of photos of her and June. After packing everything up she decided that she did, indeed, want her own photo, but it was clearly too late. Maybe next weekend when I'm set up for minis.. we'll see!

Speaking of minis - if you're interested I still have some openings for next weekend - February 1st and 2nd.


Whoops, these are in reverse order. Olive walked by which caused June to smile but she walked right in front of the umbrella which cast a noticeable shadow. But his smile is nice.


I thought monster pajamas would be a good outfit for the occasion.






It's not too easy to include the backdrop for infants.. since they can't sit up, but I wanted to see how it looked photographed. Since Olive wasn't interested in her own photos I had to use June.


I know, what a horrible thing I had to do.




Olive likes to hold his hand.






This one is my favorite.

















In case you're curious and thought he looked mature for his age, June is now 17lbs and around 26" at 2 months old.
