Just A Bunch of Pictures

Just A Bunch of Pictures

March 24, 2011

I have been taking lots and sharing few. Also, I got a new lens for my camera.  I have a few pictures from before I started using my 50mm f/1.8 (which I LOVE) and a few from after. First, a terrible picture of Ruby… but an amazing hand-knit sweater from my Grandma Fran.  Simply Amazing. So lovely. Chillin’.  Sometimes, when… Read More

5 Minute Blogs.

March 19, 2011

I spend most of the day looking for the time to write. The thing is, it only takes 5 minutes to write a blog. Look at the clock, and start writing.  Five minutes later, stop and hit publish.  No editing, no re-reading, no re-writing. I’m going to do this more often.  Because I need to write, and it only takes… Read More

Life’s Rough.

March 17, 2011

March 14, 2011

I took my camera out on a beautiful day, and took some fun pictures. Ronan wanted to run around outside, so dad went with him.  I followed along and snapped! Ronan pretending he fell down.  “Ooowwwwwwww.” Dad gave him a stick, and he was very proud of it. I don’t know why, I just love this picture. Blue eyed babe!… Read More

This Mess.

March 11, 2011

There is Chaos. Disaster, distruction, mayhem. Crayon on the walls, yogurt in the carpet. Piles of forgotten toys. Dust on the cabinets and windowsills. In every direction, there is filth. The dishes from last nights dinner are still on the table. A basket of clean laundry is forgotten by the stairs, left alone to wrinkle. A wet diaper has somehow… Read More

Poor Pooper.

March 8, 2011

I am about to write an entire blog post about Feces. You have been warned. When Ronan was a newborn, he pooped a lot.  A LOT.  Every single feeding, we had to change him before we nursed, and then we’d have to change him again after we finished nursing.  I remember wondering if it was normal for a baby to… Read More
