I was playing around with the new mac and found some cool brushes and images on the internet… with a little ps3 and a nap from mgm, we get a new banner!! happy day!

We had a great time at the Nashville Zoo last week. Our great friends the Donnellys went with us, I think the elephants and the anaconda tied for first place on the excitement scale.

 
These were taken over the weekend…she is crawling everywhere and is fascinated by the stairs, yes we are installing lovely gates asap. She is more verbal, babbling to me during the day, she mostly uses "b" and "d" sounds. She in enjoying swim class, or should I say "splash" class (at least the days she doesn’t sleep through it. I have discovered that she is photo-sensitive, that is to say, she is light sensitive like her Daddy and sleeps MUCH better when her room is as dark as possible. 

It’s hard to believe ten months have passed. I have to say that it’s amazing, daily, seeing her grow. Doing such a great job learning and playing and communicating. Everyday brings new joys and often change, and it’s OK! Totally cool to be a part of this incredible adventure.   

When I was a little girl, I was first introduced to computers by my Granddaddy. I was fortunate enough to have access to computers in school (elementary) and we had an Apple IIe at home. Today, after many years of using PCs I am returning to Apple. My MacBook came via FedEx this morning and I am posting from it even now!!

Basically I made the jump because I am a photographer and need the design capabilities. I needed a new computer, my PC was a reconditioned model and has served our family well for over five years, but it wasn’t fast enough to keep up with all my demands. When I realized the factor holding me back was time wasted waiting on the PC to execute commands, it was PAST time for an upgrade.

So I have happily rejoined the ranks of apple users….I can’t wait to get started!
