My little fire cracker.. :)

I always seem to have a plan.. A great idea.. and no idea how to go through with it..  I mean I wanted to take amazing fourth of July pics of Solomyn, holding a little sign a bunch of balloons and in his cute little outfit I ordered for this wonderful occasion..  First and foremost I am Noooo photographer my skills in that area are zero.. I have a cute little compact point and shoot and do my best to focus it when I can..  So what was I thinking putting a almost 2 year old on a little hill with a large bunch of balloons a cute little sign and a large flag and asking him to stay still..  this is how it went...















Standing still was not going to happen unless I came up with some sort of idea obviously, so my next plan was to give him the flag to hold onto next to the balloons..  Little did I know that the flag would become a bat and the balloons the target..  :)










He is the cutest thing ever and I have a problem of keeping a straight face and start to giggle right along with him... and then think you know we do have a photographer for these moments and I am so glad we do.. Because I was worn out..  But after going through all of them and in the mist of running, jumping, throwing, kicking, hitting and rolling I did manage to get a couple of cute shots in the middle of it all..







And then there were my three most favorite of the night..  One I captured by accident and the other two were perfectly meant to be..
