Birthday and other things

Update:

Well my birthday was good, I am at that age where it's just another day, but luckily I'm also at that age where I don't dread them yet! Got spoiled by David, Resi, and Davids parents,though I consider them family too, I love and care about them very much, and to see how much they love my son (I hear David in my head saying "our" son), and it makes me happy.  And if you're reading this, thank you (again) Tiana for the flowers and balloon, made me feel special.  And of course all the peeps on facebook for the wishes :).

Other than that, Declan is a parrot! This morning, as I'm changing a poo filled diaper, he stands up and I tell him "Seriously Declan" then he started saying "seriously seriously seriously". He's getting so smart and doing so many things at a rapid rate.  He argues with me like a teenager, I tell him "No", he says "Nooooooo", as he's pointing at me, I say "No, you no" and he says "No, YOU no!".  I'm sure the fun is just begining. But I'm ready for it, being a parent is by far the best thing that has ever happened to me.

As I hurry to finish up the wedding pictures I took I find myself wanting to look more "professional", I'm starting to realize a lot of photography is lost in photoshop, people go for more "glitzy" stuff and tend to like things that they can  do on instagram, or phone filters and such...  Which is fun, I'm not a fan (and that is only my own personal opinion), I like "real" pictures but I've succumbed... It's probably more I try to be anti conformist! So I've been watching many tutorials...
I think it's good though, one thing I love about photography, you're always learning, and I have a lot to learn...

I'm warming up to it, I do actually like how this turned out

Father's Day!

Father's day!

My little guy LOVES his daddy, and since he sees him less he will push me aside for daddy (which is probably his favorite word...daddy) It doesn't  make me feel too horrible cause once he's had his fill of daddy time it's back in mommy's arms he goes, where I personally think is right where he belongs!

The picture of Declan and his grill is significant cause that is what we got David for father's day (no smart. @$$ a real grill not a play one :)).  When I saw Declan standing on my elliptical waving at me I knew it was time to sell, and we used that money to get David his grill.

I also made paint and had Declan paint a picture frame for David.  (To learn how to make at home paint or just to see cute pictures of Declan painting Resi's peace sign picture frame click HERE)

It came out great and David thinks we have a little artist on our hands :).  

I probably should've posted picture of the finished product but sometimes, I'm just not so smart, so how about some more pictures of my little love instead?  But first I have to say...

Though we may not ALWAYS get along... and I HATE that he works so much, all the time and I never get to see him.... I LOVE David.  And he is a great dad, when he sees Declan, holds him, tells him goodnight, you can actually see love in his purest form., we're a lucky little family, to know and have such love.  

And as promised... more Declan!
