Island of Misfit Posts 12.21.12

If this posts, then we averted the end of the world crisis and I unfortunately have to keep paying bills.

 

Program Note

I have added a ‘Photography’ category to the ‘Life’ section of the blog.  As my “professional hobby” (as Brownlee likes to call it) expands I might talk a little shop here and there, like the bokeh post.  Plus I joined the I Heart Faces community to ask lots of questions so I might get challenges and new techniques to pick up and I’m going to order a new lens so…ya know.  Also, I have added a Gallery to show off a random 5 pics that I love.  I haven’t gone Flickr gallery yet, but you never know.

 

Follow the Leader

Addy knows what she wants.  She’s gotten to where she just grabs your hand and goes “COME ON” and she usually takes you to the kitchen to get a pouch.  Sometimes it’s cute.  Sometimes it’s at 7am on a Saturday and she really should only be leading me to the Keurig.  I need to work on her barista training.

come on

 

Faker

Addy has taken to fake sleeping and when she’s really hamming it up she will fake snore.  Particularly when I’m trying to get her out of the car after daycare.

Christmas Card!

Last year Brownlee designed the pictures so I had a proper jpeg of them but this year I had to go to Canada and wanted them ordered in time blah blah. Whatever. I was able to take the picture I wanted by using my grade A mom ninja skills and plucking the kid out of the bed and getting some good tree light in the back (BOKEH!).

Here is the practice shot.

I haven’t used Shutterfly to embed things before, not bad!  It’s 2 sides so I hope they both show up.

Anyway, MERRY CHRISTMAS!
