So, a trip to our new and improved Sanrio store proved to be quite prosperous for Hope. I picked up this darling pair of HK earrings for Hope that are a bit more her size than ones previously bought.

The good news? We will get to meet Hello Kitty in PERSON this weekend.

I had to grab a pic of the earrings while she was sleeping. I'm pretty impressed with the way my camera handled an ISO of 2200 :)

Hello Kitty - 94/365 and Easter!

We had a fantastic Easter!  The only thing that would have made it better would have been for Brian to be home to enjoy it with us.  There's always next year for that, right?  Love ya Brian!

Hello Kitty was very prominent this holiday as you can expect she will be until my 365 project is over.  

Hope loved everything the Easter Bunny left her and she just could not believe that the Easter Bunny was here in our house and she wanted all of the details on how he got in.  She doesn't miss a beat, that's for sure.  Here are a few of my photos from the day.








She was telling me some sort of story in this one....




Yes, she is wearing her Christmas Hello Kitty T-Shirt here....I couldn't find an Easter one and I HAD to have some Hello Kitty shots in case I didn't get to set any up ;)


Oh how I wish I had flipped my camera for this one...but look at those CUTE earrings!

Hello Kitty - 83/365 Photos

I'm going to cheat a little bit and post a few photos of Hope for today's Hello Kitty photos. We went to Starbucks for a little mommy/Hope bonding time and I couldn't resist. She loves her Strawberries 'n Cream drinks.  She does have a Hello Kitty shirt on :)

Pictures for Hope's Daddy

Brian - we love you lots.  Here are some pictures from the last few days.   Miss you and love you!

I ♥ Faces - Jump for Joy!

 

I know it's not the most amazing photo in the world to most, but it sure ranks up there for Hope's Dad and I.  It's not often that you let loose and do something that is only for the sake of making someone else smile, except Hope's Dad does it all of the time.   He's still in Afghanistan and we miss him dearly but we have moments like these to look back on and they make us both happy we have him at all and anxious to have him home again.

Hello Kitty - 64/365 Photos!

So, today I just had to post these photos of Hope for my 365 project.

I bet you can't count how many Hello Kitty items there are in this series of photos shot today. I seriously think I'm going to need some help before this year is out, if I don't already :)

Hello Kitty - 57/365 Photo

We got a couple of new flashlights today and we had to take an evening stroll. With weather this good, why would we stay inside?

As an added bonus, here's one of Hope as well.

I ♥ Faces - Hands on Fun

I know we've all seen this coming our way at some point.  We point the camera until they can't stand it any more and they come at us like this!  I'm happy that at least she was smiling in the process. :)

I'm sure there are going to be more than a handful (HAHAHAHAHA) of awesome entries this week...make sure you check them out at http://iheartfaces.blogspot.com/

The Many Faces of Hope

You know, she is going through a bit of the 3 and a half year old typical stuff which means a bit more drama than I'm used to with her. She can still be the CUTEST little girl on the planet, even when she is sick and feeling a tad yucky. Here are a few shots I caught of her today in between some of her not so good moods due to coming out of a cold that is sticking around a bit too long.
