290-292/365 My Little Pumpkin Pie

We got our Halloween pictures taken today!!! Lincoln was in a really good mood all day. I think it is b/c he slept until almost 9 this morning. We were going to go to the Zoo Boo today, but decided to wait until tomorrow.

Lincoln and Grant on the swings while I set up the pumpkins:




Lincoln in his awesome pumpkin hat that Grammy made for him:


It was tough to get the shot above b/c he immediately wanted to get up and run for the reflector! I took like three shots and this is the only one that he was actually sitting and looking at his pumpkin. The other two are of him getting up. I didn't have to worry about it though, b/c I saw that one and knew I got the shot I wanted!

Anyway, he really likes my reflector:



Grandpa George's grass is really tall! You can barely see his little pumpkin sitting there! LOL:



I got to practice using my reflector and backlighting today! I used the reflector on the pumpkin picture. This picture I over exposed so his face would be exposed:



Such a glamorous prop, no? He found this ball in the yard and loved walking around with it. It kept him occupied so that I could get some pictures, so who am I to complain?


The light was coming from his right and was pretty bright. He sat down next to this tree which shaded him, but I still got some awesome catchlights in his eyes from the reflection off the grass.:



After we were finished, Grant grabbed one of the big pumpkins and carried it back toward the house. Lincoln saw him and went running for the other big pumpkin to try to help! It was so darn cute! He was so determined to help daddy take those pumpkins inside. I swapped him for his little pumpkin. He carried it all the way across the yard, dropping it a few times along the way, but making it to the house. Once we got to the patio, I tried to take it from him and he was just not having it! He had seen daddy take the pumpkin inside and that is what he was going to do too!

He made it inside and ended up putting it in the laundry basket. God, I love my kid.:


Here we are yesterday. Grant was playing his guitar for Lincoln, and of course Stincs had to help him do that too.:


Snack time! He loves to carry around an apple.:


On Friday, we were playing with our reflections in the mirror.:
