Hi everyone! I'm Ninotchka. I blog over at Cease Cows, Life is Short! and I'm thrilled to be hosting Photo Thursday here at Create a Connection for the month of May.
Yes, you read right: May.
I know, I can't believe it either. Since almost half the year is gone (omg, omg, omg), I thought it would be fun for us to post our favorite pictures of the year thus far. I know I have one. Here it is:
These are my three little beauties. My daughters Natalie (age 10), Elle (age 4) and Anna Sofia (19 months). I loved this picture so much that it occupied the desktop of my laptop far longer than I usually have anything on there and I also sent it out as a Valentine's Day card in lieu of our usual New Year's card (which used to be an annual holiday card -- it keeps getting pushed back -- next year, it'll be a St. Patrick's Day card! ha ha ha).
So, post your 2007 favorites thus far on your respective blogs and leave a link in the comments here. If I'm really good, I'll even link you in this very post for easy referencing. I promise to at least try to be really good. Deal? Deal. :)
Cheers!
~ Nino

Late as usual. Agreed - love the picture of your children.
Here's mine, though a very tough choice:

I know that this is probably cheating because I was going to post these photos anyway...but I couldn't help it. I just want to show EVERYBODY!!! :)

I did a mosaic as I couldn't pick just one- I take so many!

I couldn't just put one!!! Plus, if I let myself go wild I could add about 10 up there! This was fun and I knew exactly which one was going up there first.

What a beautiful picture of your children :-) Almost makes me wish I'd had one or two of my own!
Mine are up...it was tough!

That is a beautiful picture of your kiddies. I love it!
I posted this picture back in April, but to date, it is my favorite of 2007.
