Another post that focuses on my Nikon shots. Julianna has made a turning point over the last couple of weeks with feeding herself and to help enable this we have switch her morning yogurt to one that she can easily feed herself without making a huge mess. The last couple of shots capture Julianna exploring and enjoying a new water bottle.

Papa’s Pics

A lot of the pictures that I have been posting lately have come from my iPhone 5S due to convenience and spontaneous moments. One place where my Nikon SLR still finds a happy home is around the breakfast table which is where this series of photo's were taken over the last ten days. The first series of photo's capture our morning ritual of Julianna and I sharing an Orange Juice. I pour about 8 oz of juice, drink about 5 oz and leave 2-3 oz for Julianna. The last series of pictures captures Julianna feeding herself which Julianna now insists on doing herself.

This set of pictures shows some transition to nicer weather. In pictures #3 and #4 Julianna shows how she has gotten more independent and skillful with the spoon eating by herself with only a bit of papa help on keeping the food well positioned. Julianna also discovered a love for chalk, putting her mark on about everything that would take it.

Two weekends ago we gave Julianna an early bath and with the light just right we were able to get some great shots. #1-4 captures a couple of her favorite toys and Julianna's pretty hair before getting washed. #5 captures Julianna finding the last little bit of snow late last week, #6 shows the wonder she has with playing with her little people and her dollhouse. #7-8 brings home the collection with Julianna in her Fashionista coat.

Papa’s Pics

We had some warmer weather earlier in the week which gave Julianna an opportunity to get some toys and play outside which she absolutely loves. Julianna loves to play and explore the outdoors so much that she cries when it is time to go in, it is adorable #1 and #2 captured Julianna walking up and down the driveway before moving to the backyard. #2 was epic as it looks like a fashion show move...with lawnmower. We took the show on the road with #3 moving across the backyard. #4 was a shot during the same weekend where we went to our favorite park which is not the closest park but has the best sandbox. Julianna has started to really explore social connections and melting away boundaries. The kids played and shared toys and the sandbox which is what I tried to capture. #5 is our morning OJ ritual, I love the hair. #6 is a picture of Julianna with her leap reader which helps Julianna explore what pictures and objects are in the book at her pace. #7 is a shot of Julianna at the Little Gym. Though it looks like she is following someone, Julianna was the first to hop on this and without instruction walked up the balance beam. I included this shot just to show some of the other kids in the class. And the last shot illustrates how Julianna can now pick out certain letters using these beanbag letters, on shirts and books, and even on keyboards.

Some choice selections from Papa's iphone. The first two pictures are from right before Julianna went to bed one night. She jumped in her chair and I snapped the first picture and then Julianna and I sat down and both dogs jumped in our laps though Lulu did not stay around long enough for the group shot. You can see that Julianna thought it was big time fun! Shot #3 and #7 capture a little of our morning ritual which includes sharing an OJ with Julianna. Shot #4 is of Julianna in her favorite past time, spot the deer. #5 and #6 are of Julianna playing with her toys. #8 is a shot of Julianna playing with her dishes we got at the dollar store, she loves playing with the bowls and wooden spoons we got. And the last shot is actually a selfie I took while she was giggling in front of the camera.

Snowpocalypse!

We got snow and then ice making what is on the ground very tough. Julianna loves the outside but the white stuff this time was a bit frustrating to navigate and play with. None the less we had fun and captured a couple moments here.

Julianna Nicole Clay

Born: June 10, 2012 at 11:54PM Weight: 9 Pounds and 9 Ounces Length: 22 Inches, Birthstone: Pearl

Gemini: May 21 – June 20

The Gemini child is very curious. All facets of life fascinate her, and she loves to explore nature. Gemini Baby quickly learns how to talk and walk. Her parents must watch her carefully because she often strays from view. She needs to wander, to walk, to know, to communicate. She gets bored quite easily, and needs to develop multiple interests. She is the kind of person who can do many things at the same time.

The Year of the Dragon – 2012

The Dragon is one of the most powerful and lucky Signs of the Chinese Zodiac. Its warm heart makes the Dragon's brash, fiery energy far more palatable. This is a giving, intelligent and tenacious Sign that knows exactly what it wants and is determined to get it. Dragons possess a certain natural, charming charisma that ensures they can always influence their peers and often find themselves the center of attention in social situations. This Sign is truly blessed, too; Dragons are considered to be very lucky in love! The Dragon's friends are always keen to hear what this firebrand has to say and when it comes to dispensing advice, the Dragon has the floor.
