INSPIRE by Cassandra Dieterle Photography

INSPIRE- A Tuesday afternoon conversation has led us to this...life IS short, how short we don't know so figure out what inspires you to grow and live each moment to the fullest! For us being inspired is what keeps us going, it's what encourages us to be a family, friend, find new angles, go new places, meet new people, and at the same time appreciate our past! Whatever the inspiration may be we wanted to share it with you and just maybe it will inspire you too! What inspires you?

We decided that since Grace almost 6 months and was showing the begining signs of crawling that we would give her a little encouragement in doing so... SO I got Brooke's windup dinosaur (and a few others but the pink dino was her favorite) and wound it up to see what would happen when Grace caught a glimpse of the little moving creature!

First utter amazement! "What is that thing?" was the look we got.

I laughed so hard at the expression on herface!!!

Then the chase was on! These were taken a few weeks ago she would wiggle and wave her little hand out until she either knocked him over so she could get closer or knocked him across the room and cried (now she is much more mobile and we have to put the little dino far away she can get him within seconds!).

Well as most of you know I am on maternity leave right now, but that will soon be coming to an end. I have been spending lots of time with little Grace working on the feeding and sleeping schedule. Grace is not to fond of the sleep thing and wants to be held constantly while awake, which makes it very hard to get anything done!
She is growing more by the day and starting to be more interactive with you, smiling and she has what is the begining of a laugh when she finds something funny; however it sounds more like she is choking or gasping for air!
Brooklyn is adapting well to being a big sister. She is very good with Grace and wants to help with everything "but the poopy diapers!"
The break has been nice but it's almost time to get back to my other love...PHOTOGRAPHY!
Some snapshots I have taken over the past few weeks, we of course will post more as they come along!
