Meet My Nephew, Little Mr "S"

I had the pleasure of looking after my little nephew for a few days last week. We had a busy time, and I am not sure he knew that Aunt Heidi was going to have the camera in his face everyday, but he was a pretty good sport about it.

The first day it was quite mild out so we went outside to play.




He was very quick to point out the puddles to me:



He has so much fun running through the puddles with Rosie. He might have gotten a little wet Mom, sorry.




Here he is just relaxing on the couch:



I think this was his best get that camera out of my face look:







I think this one shows his spunky little personality:



We got a snow storm through the night so the kids had and snow day and everyone went out to play.





Little Mr. "S" thought he would give hockey a try. I think a short stick might have helped!



Finally a few of the boys together. I think they look good in red. Hope you like your new sweater S.



One of all three of them:

Photoshop Fun

I found a link on a photography forum on how to make your own little planets, and I just had to give it a try.

Here are the parliament buildings as you have never seen them before:

Where has my baby gone?

I have been cherishing those last little bits of "babyness" that little Miss E had left in her, but looking at this photo, I think that they have all slipped away from me, no matter how much I wanting to hang on to them and keep her little, just a while longer.
