Something i want to learn right now...

Is Photoshop!! I am getting photoshop CS3 for my birthday, which is Friday (yep i will be the big 24)! I have seen all this stuff about actions i want to know more!! Does anyone have a good link of a good site? Are they easy to use? 

I have been so bad about taking pictures lately, Like Ava's 4th month pretty much went undocumented, but this weekend i began picking up my camera and using it!!! I will post when i upload them, we even made a video today

Ok a question about camera's. I am seeing all this stuff about a week in the life stuff, where you take photos of everyday things. This would require me to TAKE my camera everywhere. How do you cary it without looking like a total tourist?? 

Lastly i am thinking about doing a video once a week. The video would have my latest happenings and possibly some tutorials, though i am learning, maybe i will share with you stuff i have learned!! Let me know what you think.

Well thats all for me tonight, a quick post because i was feeling like i needed to blog!

I had a dream...



This is one of my favorite songs.
It makes me think of when i was a little girl,
and the things that i wished for and thought about.

I decided to do a page inspired 
by the lyrics of this amazing song.

When i was a little girl,
i thought about having a family a lot,
i would meet my prince in shining armor,
and we would have a beautiful baby, 
of course living happily ever after.

I am now in the middle part of my life living my dream.
I feel so lucky to have my childhood dreams coming true.
I know that when i look back on my life i will feel that,
i became the person i was supposed to be,
i led the life i was supposed to live,
"I'm ready to fly from the highest tree"

Here is my LO. See Ya'll later!!

A little something i have noticed...

is that since having a child i have become really fond of routines. I have NEVER been one of those structured people, i liked to do things on a whim, because i felt like it! Well something has changed me, i like to know know that
  • Dinner is a 530
  • Walk with Ava and Jayson is at 630
  • Bath time is at 7 followed directly by bottle
  • and bedtime is at 730
  • Dishes need to be done at 8
  • Before bedtime (me) routine at 815
  • REALaXIN time (my fav part it seems) is at 830-930 unless of coarse i feel like getting an extra 30 min of sleep in is needed
See and look at that i just made it in a BULLET list! I swear is that normal to change so drastically after becoming a mother?

I changed my banner, i was feeling in the mood for Halloween and thought i would share with you too! :-) its kinda like decorating my house but a lot less effort and i feel it had the same effect for me today! So is anyone dressing up? Ava is going to be a ladybug because someone gave us the outfit and its soo cute, cozy and warm! I am going to be passing out candy as myself, but i am sure Jayson will be dressing up to scare!

Well the yawns are a coming and looky what time it is, right on schedule 923!!! :-) Have a good Tuesday and i am leaving you with something i learned from class, check this out!!
