Still here…

I wish I could say that my lack of a post yesterday was due to the fact that I was in labor (you’d think I was overdue by the sounds of it!).  But alas, I’m still here, and still with child.  It’s a good thing…don’t get me wrong.  I want this little one to be perfectly ready to make his (or her) appearance.  I guess having Calder arrive four weeks early spoiled me a bit!

We’ve been enjoying evening walks, trips to the (air conditioned) library, and just today we took a dip in the neighbor’s pool (after asking of course!).  Here’s hoping to catch a few shots of the most recent phase of cuteness over the weekend.  As for tonight, the boys are hanging out while I head to Mamma Mia with my aunt. 

Tomorrow will most likely involve lots of rest and relaxation, which is a welcome change from the frenetic pace that we seem to have adopted the past couple of weeks.  Here’s to a terrific August weekend!

Best Shot Monday ~ Summer Sunset

Here’s my first attempt at shooting raw.  I’ll be honest that it I don’t think I have the photographic (or post processing) chops to shoot in this mode all the time just yet, but it was fun.  I think once I get better software (and learn how to use it) I’ll give a go once again.

I had a hard time getting the right amount of contrast in the lower half on the image, but I really like how the clouds, color and sun turned out.  It was the perfect end to a fabulous day.

Best Shot Monday ~ Way Up High

Summer Fun 002

We had tons of fun spending time with Daddy’s family in the U.P. last week, and exploring the campground and Higgins Lake with Mommy’s family over the 4th!  I’m quickly becoming quite a ham and keeping everyone quite entertained!

Mom has a bunch of pictures to work on, so I’m sure she’ll be posting them soon now that we’re finally home and getting back into the “normal” routine.
