Raw...

Today marks the first time I've shot in RAW. I have so much to learn about photography. Basically, RAW is just that; RAW. It's the picture that you take before your camera finalizes it and compresses it into a JPEG image. With RAW, you can adjust for inadequate exposure and lots of other things... so I'm pretty excited. That being said, it also creates a file image that takes up 3x more space! Yikes... Good thing we stocked up on $5.00 2GB SD cards at Fry's. Have I lost anyone?! :)

Did I mention that Chris gave me a desktop to use? Don't worry - it's just one he had laying around. Haha. Love it. I actually really like having a desktop. It's been YEARS since I've used one - back when AOL was like 'da bomb' and I was in High School... so... seriously, we're talking years.

This is where all the magic is *going to* happen.

New Tricks

Chloe has been learning a lot of new tricks lately.
If you consider realizing your feet are attached to your body a 'trick'...

Ok. But seriously, that picture is so yesterday.

Literally.

Here's one from today - right after I found her tooth 'bud'... *i think*

Practice makes...perfect?

Hardly. I took a bajillion of these photos, trying to figure out why I couldn't get her face in the mirror to be clear. Turns out the mirror on her play gym isn't a real mirror and is super foggy. Hehe.

And because of the blurry picture... I'll post a clear runner up

My Buddy's First Visit...

Today, my new buddy arrived. I waited all day very patiently, and around dinner time, the doorbell rang. At last! I have been waiting like, FOREVER.

To mark the occassion, I cleaned the house and had pulled-pork waiting in the crockpot. My buddy doesn't talk much, but I guess that's kinda the way I like it.

This new blog is more for myself than my other blog, but you'll see the same model over and over here. She's gorgeous!

My goal *Gulp* is to take a picture everyday for 365 days and post it here on the blog. Hopefully by the end of the year, I will have learned a thing or two about how to push my buddy's buttons. This will hopefully chronicle an amazing transformation!

So here goes...


Oh, Have you guessed who my buddy is?!
