Last week we started swimming lessons. Both of my kid’s love the water, but Emery is seriously a little fish. She doesn’t want me to catch her when she jumps in (so I let her jump in and then have to go fish her out…lol) and she is always pushing my arms off of her so she can swim by herself. The only problem is she isn’t quite strong enough to get her head above water yet. I need to teach her how to roll to her back so she can get a breath because I honestly think she could swim by herself then (me close by still, of course!).  I keep waiting for her to be more cautious about it, but she was exactly like this last summer too so it has been at least 8 months and still not one bit afraid.  I love it – so fun!

So this is my first time trying to embed a video and I have no idea if it is going to work or not, so let’s give it a try! Here is Emery jumping in during swimming lessons.

1. Last Day to enter THE NURSERY CONTEST is on Sunday. I am hoping people are just waiting until last minute because I know there are some cool nurseries out there in Spokane! Don’t miss out on your chance to win a free mini-session!!! Enter today!

2. I am starting to book well into spring, so if you are thinking of scheduling for spring (or even summer) contact me soon. I have changed my schedule a bit this year and there are only a limited number of sessions each month.

3. Along those lines, I am working on putting together a spring mini-session promotion. So if you are wanting pictures, but not necessarily a full session, keep an eye out! Feel free to email me to put you on the waiting list and I will email out details to you first so you have first chance to book before opening it up publicly as space will be limited.

4. I’m totally slacking on Mine on Monday posts (though I don’t think I have missed a week yet…just have been late the last couple of weeks) ;) . Last weekend, we had a great time hanging out as a family. On Friday we took the kids to Monster Jam. This was Teagun’s third time, but Emery’s first. She was still a bit young and didn’t have the attention span for the whole time, but overall, it was a success.

Then on Saturday we took the kids up to Mt. Spokane snow tubing. Emery could not get enough…she was not a happy camper when our session ended. It was such a gorgeous day too. Loved seeing the sun for a few days last weekend!


(all photos taken with my point and shoot)

5. Daylight Savings is 2 weeks away – 2 weeks! Yes, I am beyond excited and counting down the days…I love my daylight! :)

Ok, I am adding one more because I had this typed up with my five already and then my friend, Amy, who you may remember did the Bigger Really is Better post a couple months ago just posted another great post that I think is worth sharing! Sooo…

6. Go check out Amy’s blog post on HOW TO PICK A GOOD PHOTOGRAPHER. Great info and examples too!

Have a wonderful weekend!!!

I really need to work harder and getting Teagun in these pictures…he just wants absolutely nothing to do with pictures right now though…well, I can’t say Emery does either, but I can contain her a little easier still! :)
