I think I need a new way of uploading pics. I also need to learn the photo shop thingy…
I got a new camera before the new baby was born (more on that later!!) And I am trying to figure out how to use it, how to challenge myself in a fun no pressure way, how get better and get great shots of my kiddos…
AND SO I am going to document our 14th year of marriage… Our 13th anniversary was the 28th, we are in a new country (as of 5 months ago – Australia), we have a new baby (our 5th living)
Mixed in with my 365 days of pics, will be my GIFTS LIST. In other words, there won’t be only one pic a day… but not every gift will be captured in a picture either.
Here is the intro pic… I didn’t actually take it either! And quite frankly, I don’t like seeing all the extra pounds it shows… just a wee bit of pride rearing its head.
We spent the evening at the night before at Preston Beach, courtesy of my mom and dad… we mostly slept! 🙂 It was lovely to have only the 3 wk old’s interruptions and not the other four’s… 🙂
