Qade likes to sit and talk. He likes to be a big boy, and he likes for me to take him seriously. I think memories of my own childhood where I would be trying to communicate a thought, concept or idea to an adult only to have them give me that “oh-you’re-just-a-kid” chuckle and move …

Take 3
So I promise that my blog is not just going to become a before and after place for my photo experiments, but you’ll have to indulge me one last time. (For now) 😉 I wasn’t happy with the result of my second go at the vintage tutorial. Don’t know if it was the one thing …
Once again
I had too much fun with the Vintage photo thing this afternoon, so I decided to do another one. One of the steps in her tutorial was off and I didn’t find out till I was reading the comments on her post, so my first image was “wrong” ha ha, though I liked it anyway. …
Vintage Photo Editing
So, I came across a tutorial from the i heart faces site about however many “easy” steps to make a photo look more “vintage.” I have to say it was a fun and learning experience for me. The trouble w/ most of these tutorials is that they are for Photoshop programs. The program I use …
Signs
Last week on several different occasions…. maybe it was only two, but it felt like more, I found tail-tell signs that Qade had been climbing up onto the changing table and “messing” with stuff. For example, one day both the little wall art quotes I have hanging there were down, set up nicely against the …
Bible books and such
Yesterday I was reading the story of Noah’s ark to Qade from my favorite Bible story book ever!! When it got to the part where God told Noah to build an ark, Qade said, clear as day, “What’s an ark?” Ha! I didn’t even think he was paying attention to the words because he was …
They Never Tell You
I did a post similar to THIS ONE some time ago, but reading this made me smile, and I’m sure it will for you too… if you have/have had lil ones. 🙂 I have to run and get my potty trainee to the bathroom, but take a minute and read the article, it’ll make your …
My Guinea Family
I’ve been working on photos, so of course I have to do another blog post to share! 😀 This weekend we had lots of the Noggle family here to surprise celebrate Great-grandpa’s, or Grandpa-Junior as Qade calls him, 80th birthday. We didn’t know till last minute if Tiffany and Aiden would be able to come, …
Camera
There is a blog HERE giving away a Nikon D40. I’m entering because I love Nikon and with trying to start up a photography business I could really use a good second camera. If you’d like to enter too visit the link. There’s quite a story behind this giveaway that will tug at your hearts. …
Not me Poop edition
Did I already have one of these editions?? Can’t remember but it rings a bell somewhere. Probably one of those things I’ve been trying to block from my memory. 🙂 Yesterday, Easter, I did not intentionally keep my potty training lad in ‘unders’ while we went to church. Keep in mind it’s a 40 min …
