In Need Of New Pics...

So, I keep looking for a good family picture to post of us and I've realized I don't have any. We haven't had family pics taken since Johnny was 6 weeks old, sad. I have some good ones of Natey, but not any professional looking ones. Anyways, I know lots of people in Utah have been starting small photography businesses, and I'm always seeing cute pics on friends blogs, so I'm wondering if anybody knows someone affordable or someone just starting that needs practice? We would really like some updated family pics, and pics of Davie and I, but funds are really tight right now while Davie is doing the ROTC. I know a couple people will look at this and wonder why I'm not just coming to them because they have photography businesses they've started, I love you guy's work and would love to be able to, but money is really tight when your hubbie is just going to school full time. So any suggestions would be great. Thanks!

Kids Say The Darnest Things.....!

12/23/10: Me- "Johnny, can I have your eyelashes?"
-Johnny- "No."
-Me- "But they're cool and long."
-Johnny- "Mommy, I don't have eyebrushes!"

12/16/10: Johnny- "My eyes are green, that's what makes me a boy!"

12/7/10: Me- "What's the matter Johnny?"

10/26/10: Johnny-"I want to be weird Mommy"

-Me-"Why do you want to be weird?"

-Johnny-"Because, I'm so so scared of not being weird!"

10/25/10: Johnny: "I need you to take me to the D.I. so I can use their cool potty and get a drink."

10/13/10: Johnny-"Mom, when I'm a girl I can paint my toenails."

-Me-" You will never be a girl Johnny."

-Johnny-"I don't really want to be a girl, I just want to paint my toenails. Libby & Miriam get to paint their toenails."

10/11/10: Johnny-"Mom, Nate's getting tough with me!" (That means Natey was doing his look where he pokes his lips out.) Johnny started crying because Nate wouldn't stop looking at him like that.

10/6/10: Johnny-"Mommy where's my little sister?"

-Me-"You don't have a little sister."

-Johnny-"Yes I do, her name's Nellie Night."

-Me-"Oh really? Where is she?"

-Johnny-" Um, she's on the moon."

9/ 9/10: Me-"Natey, what characters do you know?"

-Natey-"Mickey Mouse, Donald, Daisy, Pluto, Elmo, Buzz, Jessie!"

-Me-" Who else?"

-Natey-"Paul, & Icky!" (aka Emily, apparently his uncle & aunt are cartoon characters!)

6/27/10:Me-"It's freezing out here, they should call it Global Cooling."

-Johnny-"No Mommy, it's Global WARM!"

5/18/10: Johnny-"Mommy, I was falling with style!"

4/23/10: Johnny came and laid down on the kitchen floor and poked his lip out pouting.

-Me-"Johnny, what's wrong, are you ok?"

-Johnny-"Yes, I'm ok."

-Me-"Then what's the matter?"

-Johnny-" My Daddy's annoying!"

4/23/10: Johnny-"Mommy I have a headache."

-Me-"I'm sorry, where does your head hurt?"

-Johnny-(Patting his tummy) "Right here."

-Me-"Oh, that's your tummy, you have a tummy ache."

-Johnny-"It hurts right here, (still patting his tummy) and it's not a tummy ache, it's a head ache!"

4/17/10: Johnny-"Mommy, sing me the park song."

-Me-"What's the park song?"

-Johnny-"It's about slides & swings & stairs."

-Me-"Well, I don't know that song so I can't sing it."

-Johnny-"Yes you can, just think about the park, then open up your mouth & make a song come out!"

4/6/10: Me-"Ggrrr...." (Johnny was standing on my computer cord and wouldn't move)

-Johnny- "Mommy, don't say ggrr, say dang it!"

4/1/10: Johnny-"Spiderman was a prophet" (Reading a spiderman book to Natey)

3/30/10: Johnny-"Lehi was a prophet, he built some applesauce. Lehi also built a airplane, and then he built an air force." (Reading the Book of Mormon kids reader to me)

3/16/10: Johnny-"Mommy, I want a gonnerrlla, may I please have take home a gonnerrlla?" (Gorilla)

3/15/10: Johnny-"I'm not Daddy's boy, I'm Paul's boy!"

2/24/10: Johnny-"Charlie bit me..." (just type that in on youtube and you'll understand.)

2/9/10: Johnny-(We were eating fruit cups and ran out....) "Alright, just give me the keys Mommy, I'll go to the store and get some more, I'll be right back." (He put on his shoes and coat and actually opened the door to go.)

2/9/10: Johnny-" Mommy, hold still, I just want to put my spit in your mouth." (Gross)

2/5/10: Johnny- "I need to go find Santa so we can go outside and make the sun come down, so the snow will go away and we can eat breakfast and go swimming. I just need to take my gloves to Santa so he can get the sun down." (Don't ask, so random, took an hour to convince him it wouldn't work.)

1/29/10: Johnny-"Mommy, don't do this at me with your head..." (shakes head back and forth, because I was shaking my head "no" at him)

1/29/10: Johnny-"Mommy, no no, we don't say that word."
