{Tuesday and Today}

i really love tuesdays
aubrey and i hit panera for breakfast after drop-off
then we head to the library for story time
something about our library
i seriously love it
it is filled and i mean filled with the most amazing children's books
since this is all i'm reading these days
that makes me very happy

when aubrey and i were at panera chatting about what kind of books we should look for
she said the sweetest thing...
"get lil critter all by me-self"...instead of all by myself...i cracked up!

we came home with a bag full of books
including horse books and teacher books for janey and
5 nancy drew books for riley
did i mention i love our library?

the girls have dance on tuesday evenings
i stay with them and
dave puts aubrey to bed

i have been trying to camp out in the car and do the 30 days to a better photo series
so far i'm on like day 4...kind of confused...kind of frustrated
kind of want my point and shoot back
at least then i could blame my camera:)
i know it just takes time and practice and more practice
i am just so impatient!!!!!

today aubrey wanted me to get the sleeping bags out so she could lay down
she said she was sick
giggle giggle
needed a pillow
giggle giggle
and the ice

...top right...that's her giggle...

then it turned to
"lay wit me mommy
right beside me
on this pillow"
not a good idea to get me horizontal in the middle of the day with max and ruby's hypnotic voices in the background
i had to snap a few blurry pictures to stay awake

it was warm today
but beautiful
we headed outside before lunch
bare with me...this was fun

not quite sure why some were clear-ish and some were blurry
i'm only on day 4 remember?:)
but i captured the moment and i guess that's what really matters

still more
she learned how to twist the swing to spin around...

oh the giggles i heard

so that was our tuesday and today (so far) in a nutshell
or in a photo
or in a ton of photos:)

have a happy day,

cindy

photo organization update:
well it is after october 1st
i missed my deadline by a bit, but i'm still not giving up
so far i have:
uploaded and organized all my photo cd's
ordered 300 photos from snapfish (that i need to get in an album)
ordered 400 more photos from snapfish that are on the way
that only brought me to my birthday...two years ago...ugh...
bought the only 2 remaining photo albums we use in town
uploaded some photos to persnickety prints ( i think i will switch to this service instead of snapfish)

we still have not found an alternative to paying $1500 to recover our old hard drive
i still need to look into printing photos from my blog/picasa web albums

not done but getting there:)
