I know for those of you with good cameras, and real knowledge and real skills, this picture isn't great, but I am actually pretty excited about it.  Why, you ask?  Because it was taken without my flash with just the light from a lamp with a 40 watt bulb.  I adjusted the few manual settings my camera has, and was able to get a picture of my beautiful sleeping boy without using the flash I hate!

And the best part?  After this late nap (from 5 - 7:30pm), his daddy has kid duty.

Good night!!

Love those eyelashes!

I had no energy, no inspiration, no dedication, and therefore, no picture!

Out of focus, but she's so cute!

 I was very excited last night because I was all caught up.  Then I forgot to publish the post with yesterday's photo. Oy!  ADD much? 

First time in the Jumperoo!

I got behind, and I was going to give up.  My OCD wouldn't let me post pictures that weren't taken on the right day.  Then I realized I had taken pictures with my phone!

Baby Girl at the doctor with a cold!

We went for a walk today. 

We walked from our house to a nearby lake.

There was beautiful light.

My kids climbed on rocks and looked super cute.

There was glassy water, a dog, plants, leaves, sun, trees.

I. LEFT. MY. CAMERA. AT. HOME.

So, instead of nice outdoor shots of cute kids climbing on rocks in beautiful light, you get......

...what happens when you leave your baby alone with her two year old brother for 30 seconds!

Dark, stormy morning!

I didn't really have time for a more creative picture today, but I did snap a few quick pictures of Baby Girl tonight.

These are full on flash, which I hate, but it's the best I could do.  I just really wanted to get something posted.  I knew if I went two days without posting, I would give up completely!

Okay, so I didn't post yesterday.  I had a migraine, my son pulled his dresser over on himself (he's fine), it was just a rather stressful day, and I never got around to taking pictures.

First thing this morning, I was playing with glow bracelets with the rowdy two year old, when I thought it might be fun to try photographing them in the dark of my closet, so that's what I did.  I used the fireworks setting, and I sort of like the result.

We've been house bound today due to cold (by Florida standards) and wind (by anyone's standards) and a little two year old with an awful cold and croupy cough.  So, as I was straightening up, the perler beads, with their bright, happy colors, caught my eye.  I think Jenn did this once, with much better results, I'm sure!
