Bubble Bubble Bubble

At my baby's pediatrician’s office they have a separate waiting room for babies than the older kids. One of the walls that separates the room is a wall of bubbles. It's really pretty neat. So on my baby’s two-week visit I just happened to have my camera and snapped a photo of the wall of bubbles.

Life Saver

Sorry, but no this isn't the candy variety of life savers. But this is a live saver of a different sort. I received this in a goodie bag when my dh and I attended the Baby Expo back last September. This little gem is a bracelet that lets you know the last time you feed baby, and if your nursing, which side you feed baby on. And trust me, when you're sleep deprived those two things are really hard to remember. That's why this little bracelet was my life saver. I still use it in fact.

Not Really Antique

This is a photo of my baby's Snuggle Bunny and pacifer. They were sitting on my dresser and so I just snapped a shot of them. Once I saw the cross stitch in the background I thought it would look really cool with an antique filter and some slightly blurred edges. So... That's what I did. And I think it turned out really cool, even if it's not really an antique.

3 out of 5

This is a photo of my baby monitor. Not very exciting. However, those three dots do represent the sounds coming from the monitor. At the time I snapped the photo my daughter was making a noise that ranked a 3 out of 5.

I Have A Yearning

After I got home from the hospital and was on my own I realized that I wasn't as smart as I thought I was. Actually, I'm pretty stupid. Having a newborn makes that fact blatantly clear.

This photo is a stack of books that I was pouring over trying to gleam some spark of knowledge because by this time I was yearning for something that might help give me a clue. The clue I got was that I can't learn it from a book. Only through experience.

Lights Out

I haven't posted a photo in a while. Truth be told, since April 4th things have been crazy and a lot of things have slipped, including Project 365. But I have taken some photos and I plan to post those as well as get back into the swing of things.

So with that being said, here's another shot.

This is not a great picture. I know that. But this does ring true to how that day went. We had some wicked bad storms roll through our area and then a few days later a lessor storm hit. It was during the lessor storm that we lost power. We kept thinking it'd come back but didn't. At the time I took this picture we'd been without power for 24 hours. The amazing thing here is that the phone in my office still kept a charge and I was able to capture the time.

A New Kind of First

I took this photo while giving my daughter her very first bath. After I took the image and looked at it I was in love with the photo. I happened to snap the shot at the same time a drop of water hit and created the ripple. That along with the Rubber Duckie and wash cloth just make me smile. I'll always look fondly at this image. We always remember our firsts.
