She did have an adorable outfit on but when I said "ok, let me take your picture" and this is how she posed, I lost it! Talk about in trouble! I'm so in for it!!
I mean heck she does look adorable but does she have to KNOW it so much?

Yo Ho Yo Ho a Pirate's life for me!!
Ahoy Mateys!!
Halloween is nearing and this year, as you might have guessed from this blog title, Girlie is going to be a Pirate!
I love Halloween. It's always been one of my favotire holidays. The costumes, the spooky music, the going to a stranger's door and taking their candy (oh wait, that doesn't really sound appealing when I put it that way lol) THE CANDY!!! :)
Thanks to Nannie, she has the rockinest (yes I made that a word) pirate costume that ever was! Oh we're so lucky that Nannie's a whiz on the sewing machine! She's the best!
She is excited about being a Pirate and already has down her "ARRGGGHHH!!" as you can clearly see in the pic below - movements and all!
With Polly the Parrot! Look at this face, it cracks me up!
Never really seen an elated pirate, but shiver me timers she's so cute!

Make sure and batten down the hatches for now - we'll be back with more after Halloween!
Walden Farm 2008
Every year since Girlie was born we have gone to Walden Farms to fill our pumpkin patch longings!
It's such a cute place and they have the neatest stuff for kids to do! We love the people there too!! This year was no exception on fun!
She had a blast. She did face painting, corn maze, sand art, the hayride and MUCH MUCH MORE!
I can't believe we've gone there for 4 years now!
SOOOOOOOOOO much fun! See for yourself...

Her dress was another Nannie creation! THANK YOU NANNIE! We love it!

E Family Photos
I've always loved taking pictures. Completely OBSESSED with it actually so when I got my new fancy (to me) camera I was head over hills in obsession!
So, my friend at work asked if I would take some pictures of her family and I relunctenly agreed. We had our session Saturday at Percy Warner Park (GORGEOUS) and it turned out pretty good. They like them anyway!
Meet the Eakes + (I say this because it was both sides of the family lol)
Some of my favs of the nearly 500 I took!

Thanks for being so cooperative guys *VH*
Self Esteem - I don't have any!
I've never been one to carry a lot of self esteem of myself around. I have no clue why I lack in that department but I do. I love things that I do and parts of myself but overall I'm not keen on me!
I think I'm a good person. Great sometimes actually, so in that I'm a little conceded, but that's all thanks to my Mom. She made me a great person. But what she didn't help me have is self esteem. Truth is can someone help you have that? I'm not real sure.
In any event, I never have full confidence in what I'm doing. I love doing things such as making invitations, taking photographs and creating gifts, however I never am pleased with what I do.
Lately though I'm getting better at being confident in myself. Compliments always help of course and I'm getting lots of praise from people lately, which is nice :) However I'm still left with "they are just saying that to be nice" thing I can't overcome - what's up with that? I'm such a weirdo!
I'm blessed with friends that are always quick with their praise and compliments and constant desire to push me to do more and more on my creative side. For that I LOVE you guys! You rock! But it's going to take some deep doing and maybe lots of money on therapy to get me to have more self esteem. It's always been a downfall of mine.
At least I took some family pictures of a friend and they all seem to love them! More on that next!

SMILE!
Tonight I took the opportunity of my rented lens to get some Fall pictures of Girlie. Ran to a nearby park and took advantage of the scenery.
She was in a pretty good mood so there was only a LITTLE bribbing! I was pretty pleased with alot of the shots. I mean getting about 21 decent pictures from 100 isn't bad :)
A few of my favs

This face cracks me up! She walked down the stairs and realized it was a little scary down there!
Gosh she's beautiful! Even if she is MINE!
The rest are HERE

BRAG! BRAG! BRAG!
I'm bragging today!
It's my blog and I'll do what I want! :)
Yesterday when I picked Girlie up from preschool I was so happy to see her activity of the day - WRITING HER NAME!! She did so great. I'm so proud and so in awe actually. This is a child that couldn't write anything, maybe an O - because it was a circle! Anyway, now she's writing her name? I'm so impressed and happy!
See how proud she was too
Soooo cute
I am one proud momma!!!
