As Alexis and I sat curled up on the couch, I tried to find *something* on TV for us to watch together. I'm going to start having violent thoughts about most every kid that's on The Disney Channel if I have to watch much more of their antics, so I started searching through a couple of the major networks for something worthwhile.
Of course, the local news was the only thing I could find.
I paused on one of the channels for a moment. Alexis turned to me and said, "Momma, you better change the channel. If I watch the news I worry about death and dying too much and then I don't let you sleep."
If she ever decides to go into sales, LOOK OUT. She can put some serious spin on absolutely anything.

If you haven't read the comments on yesterday's post, you should. It's unanimous: asking a woman about anything related to having a baby is a bad idea.
You guys are amazing. Thank you.

I'm still working on getting my photography site ready for public consumption, but in the meantime I am booking photography sessions for January and February. Sessions are $75. That will get you 5-7 edited images on a CD along with a release to have them printed wherever you would like. Email me at burghbaby (at) gmail.com to schedule a session. I have openings just about every week day and a few weekend spots as well.

Also still available are private photography tutoring sessions. $100 gets you one hour of personalized instruction. Email me at burghbaby (at) gmail.com to schedule.

On January 31st from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, I will be running a course entitled "Getting Started With Your DSLR." The course has been developed specifically for people who have a DSLR, but who are stuck in automatic mode. The goal of the course will be to help you inch away from automatic. I will cover the essential camera settings and when to use them, I'll give you an introduction to the basic principles of photography, and we'll spend some time talking about how you can immediately improve your photographs.
The cost of the 4-hour course is $75. Seats are limited, so if you are interested, please email me at burghbaby (at) gmail.com for more information or to enroll.

The husband-type-person has entirely too much vacation time, so he's currently muddling through yet another "use it or lose it" week. His mission has been to clean out the storage room and YOU GUYS. THE STUFF HE HAS FOUND.
There is going to be a post or two or ten about some of the craziness. So far Milli Vanilli-style shorts, an NKOTB t-shirt, and an anatomically correct-ish Barbie have all led to entirely too much laughter.
Just you wait.
