Delayed.

Yes I have not posted for a while. Our computer was running slow, so Jace decided to give a a complete reboot (take everything off and put back in only what we need). A week later and a trip to the Apple store and we are back in business! But now I have to find where all my pictures got put. So be patient! Posts are coming soon....once I find where all those darn pictures ran off to.

Day One-Hundred and Fifty Three: Discovering the world, framed


 A camera is an incredible thing. Sometimes it is really hard to capture the beauty of a place unless you are there. It takes a very skilled photographer to frame vastness. But for the amateur, I have my lucky moments. If you frame a picture just right, it can be even more beautiful than the real thing.


Making a random church in downtown Denver look like a place in Europe. 
Creating a forest out of a cluster of trees off the side of a busy street. 
And making my baby look like a gangster. 
It was a great day of discovery. Jace and I discovered a splendid local bookmaking shop. We took a peek and bought everything we could get our hands on!

Day One-Hundred and Fifty Two: Progress

She gets better and better at sitting up all the time! It is still a little unnerving for her though. At least she's got her bear. It's one of her favorite toys. Ikea rocks.

Day One-Hundred and Fifty One: My little gem

Isn't she a beauty?

Day One-Hundred and Fifty: Happy Five Months


We are finally to the new camera pictures! Prepare for some seriously cute, high-quality pictures. The story behind the camera: Jace was taking a photography class this semester which required him to have a digital SLR at every class. He rented one from school for the first couple times, but it turned out to be more tedious than he would have liked. One night, he had forgotten to check one out and he had an assignment due the next day ( sometimes Mr. Procrastination comes to visit). He said "I think we should go buy a camera." For those of you not familiar with how much these babies cost--- it was about $500. I replied with "Ouch!" So we prayed about it. And now we have a Canon Rebel SRL. 


I must admit, it makes me more excited about taking pictures than I ever thought I could be. I love playing with my new toy and yes we agreed that it would be an early birthday present so it is MY camera. 

Here's my darling Jadyn at 5 months.


We also got really awesome photo editing software, which is why these all have a neat antique look. 

Day One-Hundred and Forty Nine: My little Buddy

Before I had Jadyn, I thought the hardest part would be dealing with having a constant sidekick. I was pleasantly surprised by how fun it actually is to have a little friend with you all the time. I would be so lonely without my Jady Bug. We are great pals.

No camera yet...hence the photobooth picture. 

Day One-Hundred and Forty Eight: Observations


Man, I am so behind. This is going to be hard to remember what things were like 4 months ago!
Here she was. She is yet to reduce in plumpness. She has no qualms about hanging out in a diaper now. In fact, she prefers it.

New Years Resolution Scheduled to Resolute fast.

I have really gotten into the idea of New Years Resolutions this year. These are the most realistic and do-able goals I have ever made. I may actually follow through will them! Among my long term goals, I have one short term goal: The get fully caught up on the blog by the end of this month! So expect a very large flow of posts in the next few weeks.
