Her 1st toothy brushing

Today was another milestone day for our daughter, her first experience with brushing her teeth. To our surprise she actually enjoyed brushing her teeth and took it like a champ, even cracking a smile. Must have felt good on her gums also with all the teething going on. The beginning of a good habit = )

Little Pumpkin


My favorite picture so far of our little one. Im really starting to dig this new photography hobby that I have just got the bug for. It amazing how having a decent camera will spark that picture taking flame. I do not pretend to be a professional photographer by any means, im just a nerd with a nice camera just messing around to see what decent pictures I can accidentally capture.

New Camera

This past week Jenn and I took the plunge and dove in the world of our very first DSLR camera. I must say so far I am very very impressed with how great the pictures have been coming out thus far and with a little help from some post production programs the pictures come out that much better.





The Sony DSLR A390 is what we chose and so far it is a great entry level DSLR camera. As for the editing I have been uploading the picture onto my iPhone and editing them using the mobile version of Photoshop. Nice little app with basic features. I plan to dive into some other tools here in the future.




This is the original picture shot with the new camera of Cassidy and Jenn playing in her new house.






This photo it edited on my IPhone using the mobile version on Photoshop.








This one also was edited on the app version of photoshop. Look at that smile. : ) Might have added a little too much blur in this one but trial and error is what its all about.





Pretty iPhone! Managed to get this shot just sitting on the couch messing with settings.





The original of Cassidy and Uncle Scuba Steve.




The edited version, which im not super excited about.






Cassidy playing in water unedited.





The original of Cassidy eating a piece of string cheese in her high chair.





The edited version.

Not to bad so far for our first time using a camera of this caliber along with the editing software.

Cassidy Taking A Stroll!

What do you get when you mix bribing a baby with a potato chip? This!!! We used a little motivation to get our scooter to walk across the living room and boy did it work. Up until this point she has little spurts of walking a few steps unassisted but not today. Upon further ado I present Cassidy taking a stroll!

Experiment 2 - Baby + Chocolate

Todays experiment we give our subject another foreign food item to get her reaction. Will this experiment succeed or will it fail miserably?!?!? What is this new mystery item you ask? It is non other then CHOCOLATE! No woman no matter what age can resist it's magic powers. Even the strongest eventually give in to it's mystical powers!



Her first taste of it and so far so good.


Deciding whether to eat it or move along!


Trying to stay strong and not give in!


Ooohhhhh, the powers of the chocolate have won over another one!


I would say this experiment has failed, or succeeded depending on what side you look at it!



A Very happy customer as new chocolate lover for life = )


Case closed! Experiment has been deemed an epic success!
