Project 365: Week One

January 1: I don't think this is particularly good but it represents a fun tradition.  Each year we have gone to look at the lights on James Island.  This year we went for dinner at Mercato and then walked in Marion Square.  I had Stafford in the baby carrier so Peter had the camera and got most of the pictures.  I snapped this one quickly.

 January 2: These 3 cats came from Cinque Terra, Italy.  We were in a quaint little town and I saw them and thought they were a cute and inexpensive and light (we were backpacking) reminder of our time there.  I don't really like or dislike cats but we did see a cute cat curled up in a basket while we were there and so they remind me of that wonderful place.  I'm proud of this picture because I took it on manual and I think I was able to get a better shot than on the auto.  The auto kept making our walls look grey and they are blue.

January 3: I couldn't help but capture the little guy in his cute new outfit!

January 4: This was my first attempt at making baby food for the little guy.  I like this picture because when taking it on auto the container looked yellow and it was a bright orange.  I wasn't able to capture it on film the way it looked to me but this manual shot was much closer than the original.  Maybe I'll try this shot again in a few months after lots of practice and I'll be able to capture the true color!

January 5: One of my favorite Christmas presents this year was my Nook!  I had a hard time getting a good shot of this and it still is a little blue for me.  Practice makes perfect I suppose. You can't tell but I'm currently reading the Anne of Green Gables series.  It's fabulous!

January 6: Stafford has been rolling from his back to front quite often.  This day he rolled over and back multiple times and even started looking at himself in the mirror.  I tried to get his whole face in the mirror but we only have so many minutes of happy tummy time!

January 7: Stafford was super mad here.  But I couldn't pass up the chance to get a shot of the awesome onesie!!  Can you guess what it is?  It is a C-17!  We'll have to try this shot with a happy face another time.

On to week two!!
