massive picture post

 

 

Okay, so I’m doing these in reverse chronological order because that’s how they showed up on Photobucket.  lol.

All of these pics are straight out of the camera with no editing because I’m lazy and didn’t want to do it.

First, playing in the snow pics from this morning:

All bundled up and ready to go!

       

   

 

Pictures from the birthday party:

   
Decorations and the pile of loot.

   
Tinkerbell cake.

   
The cake all set up on the table, and what happened after she saw it for the first time.

       
Having fun with the party favors.

   
Mmmm……cake!

   
Opening her laptop, with the flash on because there’s never enough light in my mom’s house to shoot Chloe in motion.  lol.

   

Singing Elmo was definitely the favorite gift of the evening!

 

And now, from the birthday breakfast at IHOP.  I have to say, I’m rather proud of most of these photos.  The composition and exposure turned out very well on almost all of them.  They’re definitely some of the best candids I’ve ever gotten of Chloe since she learned how to walk.

   
Chewing on croutons before breakfast arrives, and trying to escape the Daddy hugs.

       
That looks like a big plate of food for such a little belly, but she ate it all, plus some of Aaron’s!

Completely accidental shot.  I sat the camera on the table, aimed it in her general direction, and this is what I got.  🙂 

   
She’s absolutely gorgeous! (but I’m not biased or anything…lol)

       
Chowing down on the ice cream sundae….

    
What a two year old looks like after eating ice cream at ten in the morning.  🙂
