I took this photo about a week ago, but as usual, I’m behind on photo editing/posting. Baby K doesn’t pull up yet, but if we prop her up against our ottomans, she can stand by herself for about a minute. So big!

Photo of the Day: Seven Months Old
Again, it’s hard to believe another month has passed. She just moved to a new room at daycare where they have scheduled nap times, so she’s sleeping a little less than normal. Since she was tired, she was pretty grouchy for this pictures – no smiles this month.

Photo(s) of the Day: Croquet and S’mores – We Know How to Party
Here are a few photos from our family get-together. You can’t beat an evening of croquet on the lawn and s’mores on the fire pit!
Photo(s) of the Day: It Runs in the Family
This weekend during a family get-together, I let my eleven-year-old nephew experiment with my camera. He asked a great question about making part of the photo blurry, so I did my best to explain depth of field to him. He took all of these photos below – on manual mode. I think he truly has an eye for photography!
Photo(s) of the Day: Nature Sanctuary
One of the aspects I love about where I live is that despite the size (pop. ~30,000), and the location (the Midwest), there are still fun things to do. The Matha Lafite Thompson Nature Sanctuary is a great way to spend a morning or afternoon. We’ve taken a picnic and gone on a few hikes there twice now, but this was the first time with Baby K. Saturday felt like a nice day, until we started hiking in the sun. It was hot. We saw a lot of small wildlife though, and it was so nice to have a laid back Saturday afternoon – the first one in months! If only we had Labor Day once a week instead of once a year!
Photo(s) of the Day: K & E
Our cat Emmett has a new best friend. He’s in for a real treat once Baby K starts crawling!
Photo of the Day: Messy Eater
Baby K is just starting solids – so far she’s gobbled up her cereal, sweet potatoes, carrots, and peas. She’s still at the stage where messy eating is cute!
Those Crazy People in Rocky Mountain National Park
This is the third and final installment of photos from our Rocky Mountain National Park vacation. This is the one my friends will enjoy the most, and my fellow bloggers could care less about.
Check out my wildlife photos, or take a peak at my scenery shots.
Rocky Mountain Wildlife
On our trip to Rocky Mountain National Park a few weeks ago, we saw an amazing number of wildlife. The elk were everywhere, and the chipmunks were so cute and tame! I’ve wanted to see a moose for some time now, so when we ran into a group of pedestrians with cameras alongside the road, I was ecstatic to see a moose grazing in a field. We encountered a few mule deer, a snowshoe hare, and squirrels, too.

Scenes from Rocky Mountain National Park
We visited Rocky Mountain National Park a few weeks ago, but I just finished editing photos today. I can’t fit my favorites into one blog post, so I’m splitting it into three. I’ve skied in Colorado many times, but this is the first time in my adult life that I’ve visited in the summer. I was blown away by how pretty it is. This is a place I could never tire of.
