Sign Language Fun

Last August, Jason and I baby-sat a 18 month old who had been taught sign language, it was great. He told us what he wanted, thank you, eat, dring and when he wanted to sleep. We decided then that we wanted to use sign language with our kids because it saves us from a lot of crying. It has come that time that we are teaching, Bryce is already responding to the sign for Hi, but I feel silly making these jestures and signs in public, I get several interesting looks when I do this. Besides Bryce learning, it seems that our dogs are learning as well, they keep trying to do different things when I talk to Bryce, maybe dogs are like monkeys and if they had apposable thumbs they could sign too. That thought gave me a good chuckle, so I thought I would share.

Why can't photoshop be easy?

I decided to purchase a Photoshop for dummies book, to help me out. I was just trying to figure out how to remove a shadow and I got a headache from trying to find that in the book. I was hoping I would be able to use it as a desk reference, but I think I will have to read the whole thing. I did learn how to use my Nikon software to start editing pictures, which is a big feat. I am pretty content with what I learned. This picture of Evie is only partialy finished, but I wanted to show what I have done so far. I LOVE photography and can't wait to put more focus into it.

Make a Smilebox slideshow

Today Bryce and I went to the pool with my Sister, her daughter and the little boy she baby-sits. Bryce has been showing an interest in drinks and real people food lately and today he was after my diet coke, it was really funny and pathetic. He is so much fun, but it is all going too fast.
