  • "photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.”

    one day, i was at a tapioca place with my brother, mom & cooper.  just having a relaxing visit while my brother was in town.  as i sat down, i noticed only another table by the window of 2 college-aged kids on their laptops and they didn't seem to mind cooper running around.  about 45 mins later, after cooper was running himself silly around the place, the college-aged guy came over and asked if it would be OK if he snapped a few photos of cooper.  he looked harmless enough so i said, "sure...why not."  he said he'll be back with his camera.  after a few minutes, he came back with a professional-looking camera.  i was surprised.  i guess i was just expecting a simple ol' point n' shoot.  SHRUG.  he basically stayed incognito, snapping away as cooper ran around and played.  not really trying to call attention to the camera but cooper is way too smart for that.  *wink*  cooper started hamming it up and playing with the guy.  he would look over and under a chair and go, "i see you" to the photographer.  it was pretty funny.  we probably stayed there for about 2 hours and every so often, the guy would grab his camera and do another mini session.  turns out the guy is indeed in college but does photography on the side for profit (weddings, ceremonies, bands, etc).  he thankfully turned out to be a geniuinely sweet guy and our family got to know him pretty well (probably more than he had anticipated).  i was flattered that he even asked to photograph cooper and proud of cooper for not being shy around the camera.  he promised to send them to me once he was finished so i can't wait to see how the photos turn out!

    on another note, i'm soooo relieved that my glucose test results came out normal!! WHEW.  i was really worried about it this time.  i guess i don't really know what makes up this test ...all i know is that i have a huge sweettooth during this pregnancy. now i can have more cupcakes!!!!  *snicker*
