April 27 - The Pollinator

I may revisit this photo at a later date, but I realized shortly after I started that getting a good photo of a bee pollinating would require a lot of patience (and stealth).

April 26 - I'd rather be...

OK, you've seen those bumper stickers that state, "I'd rather be...(fill in the blank)". Well, most nights (like tonight), I would rather be on this couch cuddled up with my hubby and dogs, but instead, I am running around the house asking the question, "what is my picture going to be tonight?". So, I thought I would document that struggle because if I weren't such a procrastinator, I would wake up and ask myself that question first thing in the morning instead of at 9pm at night when I would rather not be taking photos or uploading them to my blog :-)

Better luck tomorrow...

April 25 - Hiking

Today, we took our first of many hikes this summer. We hiked up Mt. Wachusett this morning with some friends.

Which do you prefer? Color? or Black & White?

April 24 - Computer Novice

OK, it is completely blowing my mind that my 3 year old can use a mouse and play computer games by HERSELF!!! She sat and played on the computer for about an hour today while I got the laundry started, the dishes cleaned and the bills paid!!! Thank you SesameStreet.org!!!!
