Just As i Am...

You're my Girl K!!!!

first off, let me say that Laken wore Camo in honor of Klala's Day, today.

i got the cable and internet on Monday. i've been in HogHeaven ever since. funny thing is, i spend more time uploading photos and editing them. i shot a wedding a month ago. a MONTH!!! and still haven't finished them. i hate weddings. don't get me wrong... i love the event. but playing with wedding photos sucks. there is no color. the three colors i get to play with are White, Yellow (from the gagillion candles at the altar), and Red from the bouquets. nothing else. no greens. no blues. nothing. saturation is a bore. playing with levels blows.

anyway, last week i took back my Scott Kelby book and read it cover to cover in one night and voila! Photoshop here i come! i'm loving it! so here are few shots i have played with.


in an effort to be more energy efficient and refrain from using the AC in our house, laken and i walk around naked all day to stay cool. rain is a plus.













laken has a thing for not looking at the camera. no matter how many times i say his name... he just doesn't do it. everynow and then i catch him. and i mean my shutter speed is set to lightening.

i love this fence right beside my house. as soon as i saw it, i thought "LURVE it!!!" and i want everyone to sit in front of it. it's so pretty. (i know, i'm weird)




see... signs of stubborness to come!











i adore this photo. he was clapping. the train track is right behind our house. and while i've always had a fascination with them, i am loathing it right now. a train comes by every five minutes. laken is afraid of them so i open the back door (aka - the track) and let him point and clap as they go by in an effort to make it not so frightening. and we say "oooooh choo chooooo" while we were outside, a train went by and he had pointed and said something along the lines of "caca" (which means poop) and started clapping. and i love it.

anyway, i need to get back to unpacking. and i think i might watch 30 minute meals so i can make dinner tomorrow!!

MUAH!

Um, you have one of those blogs that i can't make out the text!! The leave memories blog was the same way, like the font is .04 or something.

But I can see the pics and title! Your little man is getting to actually be a man! Crap! It's crazy. And the camo. Oh swoon. I'm on a camo hoodie hunt for Chloe and so sad that baby clothes have not embraced the skater look.

Oh, and sorry for ruining PR. We may as well stop watching now. damn.
