I’ve got lots of different ideas for blog posts, but hardly enough moments to wrap them up in a nice little package with matching pictures…time is truly of the essence. These first two images are a fine, fine example of this. Right after Maggie turned two, she had an opportunity to be a model for a shoe company that we adore. See Kai Run had an all-call and I submitted some photos and she got selected – after an additional meeting. Because we love See Kai Run shoes, it was a fun thing to do.
The weekend the modeling gig happened, was also the same weekend that we decided to paint our house. In addition to that, we were suppposed to be on campus at The University of Washington at a certain time, which happened to be during Maggie’s nap time. And to put a cherry on top of these cute pictures, Maggie got carsick on the way down there. She’s good at lots of things, that Maggie girl of mine, but riding in the car on a hot summer day is not one of them. There was tons of puke and it was gross. Thankfully she recovered, pounded a banana and we were all good.
For the actual shoot, they dressed her in their clothes, and her shirt kept falling down….and her hair was throwing a party in the wind. When it was her turn to have her own single shoot, they had visions of her running full-speed ahead pulling a kite. Ummmm, not so much, she didn’t want to fall on the gravel, so there was a short trot towards the camera.
My point in all this? Maggie is nearly four and I haven’t made the effort/point to share these, yet these photos are starting at me waiting to be published on our blog……and so, I’m adding in here another quick series of shots that I’ve taken over the last couple months of the girls playing on our bed. I don’t want to wait another two years until I share these. On any given day, the girls can be found playing, jumping, jamming, piling, on our bed. Our bed is the transition from playtime in to jammies, Barry and I are often negotiating how many more jumps until PJ time.
