Twice as Nice

These sisters were the epitome of perfection. When we got them snuggled up in this blanket paired with the toasty warm heating pad underneath - they were in heaven.


And can you stand it -- how cute are they! I wonder in 16 more years when they start fighting over boys (oh heck, who am I kidding, probably more like 12!) - if they'll feel that special bond that they were feeling during this photo!??

Mr. B

Don't you just want to curl up and take a nap? I always get that way when working on images of newborns. They're all bundled up and get to snooze the day away. Then of course there is the flip side -- party all night!



Benjamin was such a sweetie. Once he fell asleep, he did so good. As those of you who have seen me photograph newborns before, I move them around quite a bit.....I think at times I should really have a lazy susan to put them on!!



A big thank you to Benjamin's family for braving all of the detours! Hwy.7 is closed....then there's the detour (although minor compared to Hwy.7) in Glencoe -- it's been a crazy year for road construction.

After all of that, I'm sure they all went home and took a nap, right?

Playdoh!

As if having a pony as an indoor pet (a.k.a. Dodger, our Great Dane) wasn't enough, we are suckers and adopted another dog. Meet Playdoh.

This guy isn't quite as large as Dodger .... thank goodness! He's about 63# (compared to Dodger's 125#) and is a sweetheart. Him and Dodger were instant pals. We saw Playdoh (originally named Plato) at the Heart of Minnesota Animal Shelter. We brought Dodger to meet him and they did great. We took Playdoh home yesterday and the dogs have been going non-stop (other than a little rest from Playdoh's "operation").

It's odd, but he's nervous around cameras, so he took some shelter behind his pal. Playdoh did warm up a little bit more though to the camera after a bit.


The two boys love to play. To some non-dog owners, these may seem like mean looking dogs--but I assure you, there was nothing but some good old play time going on!
