Long time no blog, right? I took a little vacation over the holidays from my computer...well I still checked email and facebook on my iPhone of course. I'm not Laura Ingalls on the prairie for crying out loud. I was getting some serious carpal tunnel from all my typing and photoshop work so it was a nice break. But I'm back and even better equipped to serve my photography clients since Kurt got me and awesome Wacom Tablet for Christmas. It is the coolest.thing.ever. It's a step away from being Tom Cruise in Minority Report, whipping around those computer screens in the air with his fingertips. Ok, well maybe it's not that advanced, but it is awesome. It's a wireless pen that you use instead of a mouse but it is so sensitive it's like a paintbrush or an artist's pencil. I can literally draw in photoshop. Smooth lines, amazing accuracy. It's a thing of beauty. And I think it will save my left hand from shriveling up and dying right on the end of my arm. (I'm a lefty.) So thanks Kurtie Claus for the new toy. I love it.
I had an awesome newborn shoot last weekend. No it did not make me want to have another one, although he was super-adorable. (See for yourself here) It reminded me just how tiny and helpless Little Miss Independent was just 18 months ago. Now she is running down the hallways, hollering, playing the piano, using a fork to feed herself enchiladas, and voicing her very strong opinion about everything. She is such a riot. Grandma and Grandpa picked out the best toys for our little girl this Christmas. Musical instruments, a set of play groceries...my living room looks like the trashed hotel room of a preschool rock band. The xylophone is a huge hit. Even more popular is the xylophone mallet. She takes it everywhere. Fortunately it's lightweight plastic. Otherwise, we'd all be walking around with dents in our foreheads. Not to mention the furniture.
So I hate to cut this short but I've got to get to bed at a decent hour tonight. SB has woken up at 5AM the past two nights and partied 'til about 6:30. Mommy is tired. Tomorrow's post...why square plates are evil.
