the dora coma

This is Oliver, watching Dora the Explorer for the first time. I don't think he had any idea I was four feet away, taking his picture. I'm not sure introducing Dora was such a good idea, but it can't be any worse than his other new discovery, Max & Ruby.

Shirt from Tiny Sprouts. Their stuff is really amazing...great embroidery on quality garments and other items. (And they didn't pay me to say that. I'm merely a happy customer.)

I'm getting really tired of trying to take good photos with iPhone. When my laptop comes back, I'll go back to shooting with my other camera. While we're talking about the laptop, I was unable to convince Apple that the screen flicker started a full six months before the lcd cracked, so I had them send it back untouched. Some other guys are going to fix it for a whole lot less $$$, but it's going to take a few more days.

will I fit in the toy box?

Eleanor tipped a toy box on its side this morning, then tried to crawl in! All this sudden mobility has gone to her head.

This is one of the last photos before I had her hair cut for the first time. Mostly just the bangs, with some slightly angling on the side. The "wings" are mostly intact. There was a bit of a "posh spice" thing happening. Short in back, long in front. Yet another effort to be different from Oliver. His first cut was the result of my not being able to handle his mullet.


She was great during the haircut. Not so much as a wimper, unlike her big brother who howled through his first time in the chair.

Photos tomorrow. I figured out how to get photos from iPhone to flickr without any intervening technology. No such luck with my actual camera. I will have to figure out making it talk to the PowerBook G3 tomorrow.

I joined project365 too. Glutton for punishment.
