Rockin’ Eliza and… some other stuff

July 29, 2008 | Filed Under Uncategorized 

Mama, I’m hungry! Can I eat some of these tasty looking rocks? No?

How about some grass? No?

Okay, Mama. But how about my fist?

Mmmmm… this is good. But when am I going to get some real food?

By the way, Mama… have you seen the sky we’re playing under? It’s stunning tonight!
I know, I know. I have a very big vocabulary for being seven months old.

    Everyday I am more and more impressed with your photography skills…

    You have to come to the Balloon Fiesta. Its considered one of the most photographed events in the world…

    I just LOVE 7 month old baby inquisitiveness! And chubby rolls! So cute!

    As far as the sky pictures go…
    “The heavens declare His glory.”
    And that’s all I need to say about that! :)

    Maybe I need to add New Mexico to my list of places I would move when the hub graduates in 9 months. I’m a sucker for a great sunset. And Eliza, I just want to bottle you up, you cute thang! Really, Andrea, your photos need to be published, they are fabulous!

    Wow! The sky pictures are just amazing! The first one is my favorite, but the others are equally impressive.

  6. vanessa on July 29th, 2008 8:59 am

    Those pictures are stunning! It makes me miss NM even more. I miss the thunderstorms and the rush of the clouds as they come and go. Your baby girl is so cute, I remember my middle son love to suck on rocks, it was like he was cleaning them!

    I see someone is developing quite a “taste” for nature early on…

    …and GREAT sky photos! :)

    Oh my goodness! Eliza is just too cute!

    Love your pics Andrea! You have a very artistic eye for photography.

  9. Ashlie on July 29th, 2008 10:30 am

    Wow, the sky pictures re amazing. And Eliza is a cutie as always. :)

    PS Thanks for linking to the old post on home birth. It is something I am interested in looking at for the next baby :)

    That sky is amazing! I’ll have to go out west on of these days.

  12. MITZI on July 29th, 2008 12:07 pm

    The sunsets are stunning. Is God creative or what!! I’d like to visit NM just to see these sunsets. Blessings to your family.

  13. G. on July 29th, 2008 12:44 pm

    gorgeous pictures of the sky…and Eliza, of course. :)

  14. Jenny on July 29th, 2008 12:57 pm

    WOW! What magnificent pics! They are really breath taking!
    Looks like Eliza thought that grass was pretty tasty. She is too sweet, I just love her outfit, but wheres the bow to match?

  15. Katie on July 29th, 2008 4:25 pm

    I’m still drooling over that grilled pizza below. AND this sunset- WOWZERS. Th first sunset pic with motion is SUPER duper. Love it, Andrea!

  16. Sandra on July 29th, 2008 6:37 pm

    Isn’t the sky in these parts just stunning??? I can count on seeing that beauty every single day and I never get tired of it :)

    Eliza is just the cutest little girl, I want to squeeze her :)

    Hugs,
    Sandra

  17. Michelle on July 29th, 2008 8:17 pm

    She’s so adorable. That sky is beautiful!

  18. Kim on July 29th, 2008 8:34 pm

    She’s such a cutie! And that sky is beautiful! We have pretty sunsets, but nothing like that.

  19. Angella on July 29th, 2008 8:54 pm

    The sunset is beautiful, as is your baby girl!

  20. Anna on July 30th, 2008 6:27 am

    oh HOW CUTE!!! she is such a sweetie, and I love that her and AJ are so close in "stages"! but the difference between them, he just dives into the ground with his mouth open to get a whole mouth full of grass, where she picks things up & tries to eat them! and the sky, BEAUTIFUL!

  21. Sarah on July 30th, 2008 7:24 am

    your pics are amazing I wish she sky looked like that here. And boy is she a cute baby girl

  22. Farm Fresh Jessica on July 30th, 2008 1:33 pm

    Adorable babies and soul tingling skies–what a great post!

  23. Barb on July 30th, 2008 8:09 pm

    How I wish I had you here to show my how to do this with my camera, Andrea. You are amazing.

    And I can’t believe that baby is sitting up like that – my word, Avery is only two months behind her and I keep forgetting, in a couple of months she’ll be doing this. How Cute!!

  24. Chelle on July 31st, 2008 9:14 am

    Beautiful pictures! That sky is amazing!
    What kind of camera do you have?

  25. Heather on July 31st, 2008 11:26 pm

    OMG!!! Eliza is sooooo beautiful!!! I just love the pics of the sky!! stunning is right!

  26. Lynette on August 1st, 2008 12:07 am

    That sky is absolutely beautiful…and still, not as beautiful as your baby :)

  27. Carol on August 1st, 2008 2:51 am

    Wow what a stunning sunset! Beautifully captured.

    Eliza is gorgeous as always!

  28. Diane on August 1st, 2008 9:03 am

    All your photos are beautiful.

  29. mom2natnkatncj on August 1st, 2008 11:27 am

    Very cute! And I love the pictures of the sunset.

  30. Mamasphere on August 1st, 2008 11:47 am

    Oh my word, those arms and legs! I totally want to pinch them! I miss those baby rolls so much.

    The sky looks amazing!

  31. Susan on August 1st, 2008 3:57 pm

    Beautiful! The baby and the sky.
    I love when they finally get over the stage where they put everything in their mouths, but that means they are also over a lot of other really cute things.

  32. BookMomma on August 2nd, 2008 11:48 am

    Gorgeous photos!! And that sunset ain’t so bad eaither… :)
    Eliza must be a reader. How else has she evolved such an expansive vocabulary?

    Happy POW!

  33. McMommy on August 3rd, 2008 1:40 pm

    Can Eliza come over and teach my 17-month-old how to talk? Because he only knows like 3 words! :)

  34. The Flip Flop Mamma! on August 5th, 2008 10:16 am

    Those pictures are so adorable, and man! That was a stunning sky!

  35. Lynda on August 11th, 2008 8:46 pm

    Hey Andie,

    Your sunset pictures are phenomenal, especially the last one. I’ve discovered a growing passion for scenic photography. I am not by any means spectacular, but I take such pleasure in capturing the defining moments of beauty God grants us each day.

    As always its great to see pictures or the kids as well:)
