150/365: My Skin Crawled

Inspired by some fellow 365'ers, I decided to see what I could get for an insect shot today. This is my "someday I want a macro lens" shot :) While I was standing there waiting for a bee to land in my frame they were flying all around my head. I don't generally like bees, so it took some concentration not to run from the buzzing!

149/365: I don't want to take a picture!

Too bad kiddo :)

148/365: Shopping

Today we did a little bit of clothes shopping to get ready for California weather. I'm still working on getting my pre-baby body back (I can't remember how long it took the first time???) and needed a couple pieces to get me through. In the evening we had dinner at Chipotle (yum) and shopped for refrigerators. We were surprised to know that most homes sales in California don't include the fridge. What happens when a Californian moves to Washington where most homes do include the fridge? :) Sears didn't have the model we wanted on the floor... so it's off to Best Buy tomorrow!

Lastly, I'm now a Mac! We had my MacBook Pro shipped to my parents and yesterday I was finally able to get it out of the box. I downloaded the trial version of CS5 and am trying to figure out my way around it. It's definitely a bit different than Elements! I think I'm going to take the Jessica Sprague "Good to Great Workflow" class to get me started, but any other suggestions on how to learn PS would be great.

147/365: On the Road Again

And we're outta here! One step closer to our new home.

The boys were extremely unimpressed with another long car ride. Add to that down-pouring rain and an abundance of semi's on I-90 and you have a fun trip! We made it to Oregon though and we're now enjoying some family time.

146/365: Fini Flight

Today B flew his last flight here in Spokane. It's tradition to douse the pilots thoroughly as they step off the plane. Unfortunately, it's a cold and rainy day, but the tradition was upheld anyway! The boys and I rode out on a bus, along with a couple guys from the squadron, to meet the plane on the flightline. First, the crew B was flying with dumped a cooler of ice water on him as he stepped down the ladder. As soon as he touched down he was sprayed with champagne and water from pressurized fire extinguishers. After the big boys had had their fun, one of the guys offered Isaac the opportunity to take a turn with the fire extinguisher. He had no hesitation :) As soon as we got back on the bus Isaac was asking to get off and "spray Dada again!"

145/365: Errands

Just a picture of the changeable weather we've been experiencing this spring in the Pacific Northwest.

Today we ran a bunch of errands. Picked up my records from the midwives office, picked up one prescription for the dog at a compounding pharmacy, then off to Costco to pick up another prescription for the dog (he's epileptic) as well as some vitamins and snack food for our trip and then finished up in the drive-thru at Delish- our favorite local burger place.
The boys and I drove by "our" house one last time. Nothing looked different. I asked Isaac where we were as we drove past and he replied "at the green steps!" I wonder if that is how he will always remember our house :)

144/365: Zero Cavities!

I've never had a cavity. Amazingly, I also hadn't been to the dentist for 6 years until I went 6 months ago. Today was my 2nd appointment for the year and I got the whole mouth full of xrays (about 2o I think!) because I was pregnant the last time I went in. I didn't take my camera with me, but I should have thought of that!

Oh my little man. He loves those boots.
