Almost 1/3 of the way through the year. Love changing my desktop image every month. Do other people or am I just a nerd?  My favorite source for desktop calendars is Smashing Magazine.

Project 365 Is Back!

As you know, my camera cord has been out of service for about 2 weeks. I was finally able to download my photos and surprisingly have photos for every day. It has almost been 100 days of photos, wow. I think at the end of this I will make a mini photo book with all the photos for the year.

Letters to Baby

When I first found out I was pregnant with our first child I was overwhelmed with so many thoughts. Happy thoughts, nervous thoughts, excited thoughts, thoughts of planning for the Baby, etc. I often wrote in my journals growing up and it is pretty fun to read what I was thinking back then. Sometimes writing things down helps me sort through all my ideas and it just so happened that I wanted to write a note to our new little bundle of life.  So, this is the first of a few letters I have written to the Baby since we first found out on August 30th.

Big News!
