So I had a nice friend and family fix this week. Lots of visiting and with the nice weather we can't help but feel good. We even managed to take the dog for a walk. WOOT!
I haven't had a lot of chance to write lately and that has a lot to do with sleep deprivation, baby and life in general. I've been in an up and down mood lately and when I'm up I don't really know what to write about, and when I'm down I don't want to just bitch. The whole point of this was a way to let out the fears and anxieties I was having and I know I'll keep having them, but I think the one's I've been having I've been reluctant to let out.
Anywho, things seem to be going okay so far. I've been trying to take LOTS of pictures of Violet. I think I need to justify that she has been getting bigger and that we are out of the woods in some sense. But they are only little once and if I don't take to pictures I'll be sad that I missed something. The only big thing that I feel I missed was getting pics done of her when she was really little. Being we were in the hospital all my pics of her when she is really small have tubes and other things on her. I know it's not a big deal, just something that I wish we could have done... you know like the Anne Geddes photos. But I've been looking at a lot of them and I think I'll try my hand at doing a cute photo-shoot with my crappy camera (it's not actually crappy, it's just not as fancy as I would like). I've managed some cute pics of her with the dog but I think I need to be a little more creative, so I'll look at other pics online and see what I come up with... mostly what I have in the house and can use.
I was looking at some of her pics from the first few weeks and tried to turn them into black and white. That was a bad idea, it really reminded me of Cole's pics when they are like that. They were both so small!!
So I'll try the new shoot sometime this week... I'll probably not post all of them on Facebook being I want to send announcement cards and I want to use a picture that everyone hasn't already seen. We'll see if I'm successful :)
