All parents know how fun it is to watch your children explore the world around them each day. We scrapbook each of the good fun moments, and remember the sad. No matter what stage of life they are in it is continuous learning and recording of data. That goes for adults too. I am continuously learning about the world and people around me.  Continuous education is what life is really about. We never stop learning, its just not always as exciting as our first steps. Came across some articles written by great photographers that challenge me and remind me of the important things. Change your view.  Look at the subject from a different angle than what is normal for you. It was fun.  This smile gets me every time! While he played on the swing i circled around him trying all sorts of views and sometimes not putting him as the center. He almost tumbled off the side at one point...glad i have cat like reflexes! :) As he explores it is important i stay close...

Yesterday we hit the double digits for lil Shepherd. 10 months. Really wants to walk, has taken his first steps and will do like 4-8 in a row when prompted. He likes to wake up at 430 happy as a lark and jump and sing in his crib...it takes a while but he will fall back asleep. Its cute..but really 430am?? He was trying to tell me something here :) i love it! Seems like now new things are happening every day. I left him in the living room on a chair next to the couch and came back and he climbed over the arm of the couch and just sat there looking at me like what? haha he is climbing now, stairs and apparently furniture now too! New sounds and expressions are popping up. Its all happening so fast. Oh where did the time go?

This is what happens when i am taking pictures for friends and shepherd isn't in them :) Blurry cause he snuck up on me and i had to snap it real quick...and unedited ...but funny to me :) had to share!
