Winter walk - Embrace the Camera 12-6-12

I've never been much of a winter person, and I still love summer best, but there's something about walking around in a white, snowy world. 

It just feels so peaceful and pure and I love it, especially when the sun is shining! 

It makes me feel like breaking out in Christmas Carols! (I won't though, I'll spare you that awfulness ;) )

 And seeing the snow for the first time this winter is even more special when I'm with my little man. It's so fun to see him experiencing things for the first time, it's like I get to see everything with new eyes too! It's actually quite humbling and refreshing!

I can't wait to introduce him to all the fun things winter has to offer!

Love, Maria

Linking up with Emily today!

Embrace the Camera - Papa's turn

Today I'm linking up with Emily again. (I know I'm supposed to be in the pic, but I guess I am, in the reflection in their eyes ;) )

These are my two favorite guys in the world embracing the camera together.

I just love this photo of them together.  

Everyday when B. comes home from work he picks Micha up out of his playpen or takes him out of my (tired) arms and cuddles with him or reads him a book. Micha LOVES this time of day and lights up as soon as B. enters the room.

B. has always been the best husband I could ever wish for, but seeing him with Micha has made him even better in my eyes! 

There's something so attractive about seeing your husband with your baby!

So thankful for my two amazing guys!

Love, Maria

Embrace the Camera - October 25 2012

I've been following Emily's blog for a while now, and have always wanted to participate in her Embrace the Camera link up. So here it goes!

This week B. (who is an elementary school teacher) has Fall Holiday, so yesterday we decided to go for a nice walk to soak up all the fall colors and scents.

Micha was sleeping in the stroller until halfway our walk he woke up and demanded to be held! Can't blame him, there's not much to see in his bassinet!

We tried to make a family photo and it wasn't really working, until a friendly old man walked by with his dog and offered to take a picture. And the picture above is the result!

I've never really enjoyed the fall, I'm more of a summer girl, but this year it feels special. I love showing my little man the beauty of this world we live in! Because, despite of all the ugliness, it is beautiful!

Love, Maria
