I know that I have been behind on blogging. I was in training for three days this week and it really knocked me out (not for running, but for my work. Too bad it wasn’t for running). I have taken pictures every night… well except for Friday. So, I officially got through 19 days without forgetting a day. I’m going to give myself 1 forget day a month that way I don’t feel so much pressure to gave 1 picture a day every day. Now for the rest of January I will have one. I also am being a little lazy and not doing them in separate posts. I am posting them all together. I’m trying to learn the ins and outs of Photoshop elements. I know that that is the basic program, but that is about what I am right now. I just learned how to do collages. This is my first and I know it is not spectacular, not even mediocre, but I wanted to get the pictures up from the last couple of days.
Pictures:
1st picture: Meet Trent, Ashton’s best friend. Every Wednesday my best friend and I get together and have dinner. Our children are around the same age so it is nice to get them together. Trent is toughening up Ashton a bit. Ashton wines often and Trent likes to wrestle. One night I was wresting with Ashton and I told him to tell Daddy what we were doing. He didn’t answer, so I said we were wrestling and Ashton responded Trent, Trent (sounds more like Tint, Tint), but we didn’t even see him that day. He associates that with Trent. For a while Ashton thought that every time we got in the van (yes I own a mini van), we were going there.
2nd picture: Ashton and Dan were wrestling on the couch. This is Ashton attacking Dan. I just love his smile…it is quite contagious.
3rd Picture: HAPPY THREE MONTHS to my baby girl. I cannot believe how fast time has gone. Claire was officially three months today. She is getting so big and doing so much. As of right now she coos and smiles at me. I swear she is going to roll over any day now too. She has everything over except her stomach. I am truly blessed with two good babies. How did I get so lucky.
All of these pictures were taken with an external flash. I had the f stop at 2.8 for all of them. I can not say what the ISO was on, more than likely 400. I run a few actions in Photoshop Elements and waala.
As for running, I think I am going to start all over again. I have officially not done anything since 8 days ago. UGH! I feel so much better when I exercise.
I went to Jo Ann Fabrics store today with my mom. That store is DANGEROUS for someone who wants to learn to sew better. They also were running 50% off of their already reduced clearance fabric. So I had to pick up a few a yards. I got this ADORABLE corduroy pattern. I plan on making Claire a jumper out of it. I also picked up a pattern for another dress for her. I can’t wait to have a day where I can work on my sewing machine. I have used it some, but I want to use it more.
I will post a picture tomorrow night, but I can’t beat myself up about it every night if I don’t get a blog post posted. I will like I said, make every effort to have one picture a day with one slip day a month. So for now, I’m off to bed!!
