FINALLY!! The Elusive Sweet Shot Captured!!

For the past two years a chipmunk has been teasing me with cuteness that I was, until now, unable to capture. I tried everything. Sneaking up on it, zoom lens and trying to snap a picture from a mile away, begging it to "just sit still for a second!!". Nothing. For TWO years! Then, the other day I got lucky. This little creature just loves my tiny pot and hangs out in it all the time......

I love it. Now, if only it will let me hold it, squeeze it and kiss it I'll be happy. But for now, this will do. :)

My Sweetest Lola.....

Waiting on her Daddy......

Mommy vs. The Hummingbird.....The Sweetest Shot

Dear Hummingbird, I would like to thank you for hanging around my deck and giving me the opportunity to snap some of the most gorgeous pictures of your beautiful, tiny self. Thank you so much.......

I don't want to ruin this post with too many words. :)

Sweet (Shot Tuesday)

I could come here and talk about how sweet that carrot cake I made a few weeks ago was, but I won't. Or I could talk about this girl right here.....

How sweet she can be when she wants to be. How she likes to play with her siblings, how well she listens (when she wants to) and how great she does in school. Or, I could talk about this boy right here.......

I could tell you how well behaved he is (most of the time). How funny and sweet he can be when he wants to be. I could also tell you about the bloody nose he got from picking his nose, but I won't. What I really want to tell you about is this little girl right here........

See? Can't you just see how sweet she is? Well she is! She is the sweetest thing walking. All my children are sweet, but Lola is at a very sweet age. You know, the almost 2'ish stage when they repeat everything you say, make up they're own little conversations, they feed their baby dolls, they still like you, they still want to hold your hand and she says things like...." Me hardies!" and "CupCAKE!" and she sings her own little songs in her cute little voice. ((sigh)) Extremely sweet doesn't even cover it. :)
