More Family Pictures
Some pictures taken with our new camera.
Connor is starting to smile. Most of the time it's just gas, but there are times when tickling the bottom of his feet also puts a grin on his face.
Did you know it is almost impossible to take a picture without Dillon trying to butt in? It's also impossible to blog without Dillon climbing on the couch and jumping on my back.
Dillon is close to owning every Cars toy possible. If I had a dollar for every time I have stepped on Lightning McQueen we could build a separate toy room with a life sized Mater and Doc Hudson.
No family photos are complete without Otis. He has been my test subject for most of my pictures due to his ability to stay still so I can experiment and compare the differences in the shots.

Hello Baby Connor
Here are some more pictures taken by Aunt Teri during their trip.
Finally caught the little boy with his eyes open.
One of my favorite pictures of Connor and Christina.
Sleepy head did not like the flash going off so much as he tried to snooze.
Brothers don't shake hands, brothers have to hug!
Connor was too big of a baby to reenact the baby in the mitt, so we had to improvise. This shot (pun intended) will go great in my basketball frame. Soon enough Connor will be able to don his Pau Gasol jersey and team up with Dillon to defeat the evil Phoenix Suns.

Rock Star
Last weekend Aunt Teri, Uncle Les, and Nick came up to visit. Nick and I decided to get our Rock Band on.
Then Dillon decided he would join us as the lead singer.
Dillon was quite the performer, always playing to the crowd.
In typical rock star fashion, he wore an outfit that any normal person would never wear in public. For this performance Dillon modeled his full body pajamas with the stylish green Crocs.
For his encore Dillon brought down the house with "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" and the "ABC Song".
Once his show was over Dillon pushed away the paparazzi, returned to his room, and promptly destroyed it with a slew of toys.

Canon Rebel XSi
That's the new camera that arrived today. Now that I have upgraded from a point-and-shoot camera I will have to relearn photography. I took a photography class in high school and learned shutter speed, lighting, lenses, and apertures but have seemed to forgotten almost everything. Anyways, here are some quick pictures I took.
The new flash already works wonders in our house at night. Our old camera had trouble without natural lighting.
I can't take Connor's picture without taking one of Dillon.
Dillon trying to make a fish face with Connor. This would have continued for a while if Mom wouldn't have broken it up.
Mom sure loves her new baby.
"Stop taking pictures and wrestle with me!"

Broken Camera
Wondering why there have not been any new pictures of Connor or Dillon? Our little Kodak camera decided it will no longer take pictures. No need to worry though because a new camera has been ordered from Amazon and will be arriving by week's end.
