A Bit East-coast

Smithsonian's National Zoo [pt.1]

.[national zoo {pt.1}].

Saturday was spent walking the National Zoo in DC. It was crowded, but at least not too hot and sunny-the weather was just right(until we left when it stormed)! Our first time at the zoo, I did my best to snapped a few photos. The lighting was the best in the bird areas-it was filtering through perfectly. I wish I had a better zoom lens for the tiger/lion enclosures...they were so far away(which is a good thing). It was such a beautiful zoo, the best I have seen...

Today I spent the day with little baby Noah, Ellie's baby brother-plus, Ellie too! My first time watching him while their mama went for an interview. He was super sweet and easy-unless I was slow in getting him his bottle! Once fed he fell right back to sleep-and I couldn't resist grabbing my camera for a few photos....

 

ellie & some locals.

Sweet Ellie last Thursday. I had the pleasure of watching Ellie (my good friend Tracy’s' grand daughter, and Caitlyn’s sweet little girl) while her mommy went for her doctors checkup-baby no.2 is due any day now. This was my first one on one with Ellie-or any baby since Kiela, lol. Thank goodness Pipa the Pig (Ellie loves Pipa & pigs) was on TV and made her forgot mommy had left! We raided Kiela's room for toys, and she discovered Kiela's nail polish-Ellie LOVES nail polish too. Lulu just wanted to lick her...

As I have mentioned a few times-we live in the country (today I can smell it slightly coming through the windows;-P)! I have to past a lot of working farms & wineries to get home. This past weekend Tracy & I went up the road to take a few photos of some of the local cows. I have been really wanting to get some photos of the local animals to frame around the house-finally I got a few photos! I wish that they were a little better, maybe next time.

We had a little Easter egg hunt this morning. I stashed eggs stuffed with sweets & makeup around the house for the girls to find. They loved it! Happy Easter!!

so many photos to edit...

 Not only do I need to get ready for Santa, I have tons of photos to edit. I have New York photos still waiting on me-some of which are lost since LaVaughn didn't listen to me, argh. Thanksgiving photos & DC photos-my mom, lil sister (auntie Hilary) and her boyfriend Chris came for a visit. I need to take Christmas photos. Plus, edit Caitlyne's wedding photos. Oh-and I still have Halloween...
