My new lens came today and needless to say, I'm beyond ecstatic. I have to thank MckMama for being the one to recommend this lens in a post of hers. It's truly amazing and I'm sooo happy to finally have a lens with an f/stop that goes below 4.5! (btw: it's a Canon EF 50 mm f/1.8 II)


Here she is in action (yes, my lens is a she):


On a side note: it's been a pj day here today. Mommy (still) has lots of biology homework to do and no errands to run at all, so there was no need for us to get dressed. Now I will confess that on a "normal" day, it's very rare to see me out of my pajamas before noon unless I have somewhere to be, but Gunnar is *always* dressed first thing in the morning... it just takes me a little while longer. So I guess today is more of a pj day for both of us, seeing as how I never bothered to change him. These days are fun every once in a while =)

Santa

We FINALLY got to see santa today! After having to keep putting it off, we were able to drive down to the mall today and wait for a good half hour to see Santa. It probably wasn't really worth the wait since we didn't get done until 4:30 and Gunnar had missed his afternoon nap (which is at 3:30) and he very badly needed to nurse. It has been 4 1/2 hours by the time we got home since his last nursing... normally he goes no longer than 3 1/2 hours. Anyways, despite him starting to get cranky by the time we got to the front of the line, he was all smiles for Santa. In between each photo taken (which included all of us clapping and saying "yay gunnar" in order to get him to smile) he would look up at Santa and try to grab his glasses. I was so glad he wasn't scared of him and that we actually got a good picture!




very merry.

Here are the rest* of the pictures from our little Christmas photo shoot

Yes this is a picture of his foot, and yes, this is one of my favorites.


















*by rest I mean there's still more to be taken. These were done right before nap time (why I would decide to do it then I'll never know) so we have another session hopefully tomorrow if all goes well.
