little yellow raincoat

It’s been a while since I’ve posted any shots of V. Today she was playing outside in the rain and I took a few quick pictures out our back door… these make me happy.

my new favorite thing

The geniuses at Hipstamatic (the best iPhone app ever, for those not in the know) have once again unleashed their mad skillz and came up with a photobooth-in-your-pocket app for the iPhone 4: Incredibooth! This one, I know already, is going to get a lot of use.

Seeing as the most willing participant in my home is my daughter, here are a few recent embarrassing photo strips of the two of us.

a fair to remember

From yesterday’s visit to the Please Touch Museum…

Two years ago, Kelly and I saw our lives changed immeasurably, and we’re forever grateful for it. Happy 2nd birthday, kiddo… we love you.

day at the zoo

No one ever gets to their deathbed and thinks “I wish I’d have spent more time at the office.”

So true. And so today, when friends of ours asked if we’d join them and their daughter at the Philadelphia Zoo, of course we jumped at the chance. V’s been reading books full of animals, but this was the day when she finally realized, “Oh! They’re real!” (Or at least, I like to think she did.) I was in snapshot mode and managed to fire off a few frames in between holding V’s hand and overpaying for soft pretzels.

I have vague but fond memories of my first trip to the zoo. Here’s hoping my baby will, too.

ranch dressing is not for drinking

As sort of a familial Valentine’s Day celebration we went out to lunch at one of our favorite places, Iron Hill in Phoenixville… and we’re still in the process of teaching V the difference between food, beverage, and condiment. I snapped these with my iPhone.

Hoping you spend the day with people you love!

snow day

I’m sure I’m in the minority here, but I was SO excited about the snow this week! Our neighborhood is gorgeous when it’s like this… the world gets quiet, people hunker down, and every once in a while we venture out to see what it’s like out there.

A couple of our street…

And of course we had to get V out there too.

She was kind of skeptical.

My favorite…

Every kid should experience snow like this!

v’s first mischief night

On Friday night, V said she wanted to TP her friend’s house across the street. It went as well as could be expected, I suppose, but when she suggested eggs and a burning bag of dog poo, her mom and I put a stop to it…

I looked out the window the other day and saw V running around the backyard, so I did what I should be doing far more often and took a few quick shots. When she grows up, I’m determined to give her a hefty collection of photos from her childhood!
