She found some snails in our front yard the other day. She named this one "Doo-doo". Don't ask me where she came up with that name, but it was the cutest thing to watch her follow it around saying "Hi Doo-doo"
She sat on the steps so patiently for such a long time, watching it move at it's slow snail pace...never getting bored or tired of it. She was just so proud that she had found a snail!
Ah, I love that little girl so much! And I hope discovering new and wondrous things never gets old to her!

Oh my gosh Kyna, those are the most adorable photos!!!!
I love watching them discover! She is soo sweet and these are great pictures.
I swear when we want a picture with them, they purposly do that! STINKERS
There's a metaphor here... a small child watching a snail. Their childishness and babyhood flying by so fast, the snail inching along so slowly.
I think this is going to be my meditation today. :)
Nice to read about your enjoyment of your daughter. Your writing tone and your photos convey it well. She's precious.
Oh. Doo Doo. What a perfect name! I love kids and nature. Perfect pictures. Just perfect. And you don't look to shabby yourself:)
Ahhh... Ellie is just a dream! You managed to make snails look magical...lol. I think there is nothing more beautiful than a mama that loves being a mommy, & a truly happy child. You are such a wonderful mama, & girlfriend... how pretty are you!!!
i think the picture of you two is still super cute... it's so typical of those little uncooperative stinkers ;)
and i love the snail pictures, how she was just so observant! i'm sure parker woulda picked it up & it woulda gone straight to his mouth. gross.
What a wise teacher, Ellie is. We can learn a lot about patience and how to take joy in nature.
You captured the moment so perfectly. I say this one goes into the Scrapbook Hall of Fame.
How sweet! I love when children find something new.
There are also very few pictures of me with my daughter. I always joke with my husband that she is going to grow up asking where Mommy was since I'm always behind the camera.
Arrr she is to die for! so sweet!
I am feeling a lot better than I was! thanks so much for asking I'll be 12 weeks in about 10 days, I'm counting down hoping by then I wont be sick, heres for hoping ;)
How gorgeous are you girls?! What a sweet heart your daughter is!
I remember when Dylan watched a snail. It was the cutest thing. I was running late for an appointment and it made me realize that sometimes we just need to stop and watch with our children as they discover the world around them. I will never forget that day.
p.s. About 10% of the pictures on my blog or of any pictures contain me with my son. It seems we are always the ones trying to capture every moment. :)
