    He will be out when he’s ready and think of all the gorgeous newborn feet shots you can get.
    I love jumping. LOVE it and the macro shots *drool* I covet a good macro lens.
    My fave is the bookshelf though.

    Very nice photos Veronica. Amy is just the cutest thing. As for baby, I had a doctor that used to say “When the bun is baked, the oven door opens.”

    Lovely photos. That macro lens is awesome.

    And, yes, WHEN he’s ready he’ll come out. I think it’s preparation for the teenage years when they can’t seem to get out of bed during daylight hours especially on school days! Anyway what’s another couple of weeks, after all you can breathe now – and play with the new camera!

    You KNOW I’m lusting after that camera, right? Absolutely gorgeous photos, my dear.

    And yes, that little twerp will be out when he’s good and ready. Just let him know we’re waiting, okay?

    I’m jealous of your macro skills. I’ve been practising a bit and got a few good results. Well, I think they’re good. Amy’s hair is getting so long now. I love the jumping shot.

    Wow. You must be having fun with the new camera!

    The cicada’s wings look backwards to me, for some reason. I used to have lavender somewhere in one of my yards. Now I have bushes that are dying from the dogs’ pee. Somehow just not as lovely.

    Really awesome photos.

    Great shots, all of them, though I particularly like the Bathtime, Flower in her hand, and Bookshelf shots. I am so envious of all these new cameras everyone is bragging about – I KNEW I shouldn’t have bought anyone else a Christmas present and just got that DSLR I want…heheheh.
    Good luck with the bub. I had a friend who went to 44 weeks…both she and the bub were well and truly ready by then! 🙂

    Beautiful shots! Wow! Cicadas are great, that brings back a lot of childhood memories. I love the purple in the 6th shot and I love the perspective on the books.

    Sometimes you have to stop and smell the…. NOPE… pluck! the posies.

    It’s lovely to see summery flowers, we shoveled 5 inches (5 times 2.25 equals roughly 10.5 cm????) of snow this morning.

    Love the shot of Amy holding the purple flower. It may not have been the shot you intended to get, but its lovely just the same. Think of it – in 20 years, you’ll see how small her hands are and recall the story of how she *just wouldn’t* smell the flower like you wanted her to…

    Lovely set!
