Well, gee. It’s Monday morning and it’s just Sophia and I. Her daddy is in Afghanistan for awhile. I think this might be the toughest deployment yet. When we were in a Special Operations unit of the military, we had a tremendous amount of support.

Sophia’s Circle Art Part 2

I cannot stop playing around with this! Yesterday I had as much fun letting Sophia pick the little punch outs to glue on the paper as I am today with Photoshop!

It started out as a bunch of circle punched scrap paper pieces (see yesterday’s post) and turned into some fabulous works of art:

I am thinking of offering the high resolution versions (commercial use ok) for a donation towards something for Sophia. She loves the zoo and I know she’d love going to the San Antonio Zoo.

Sophia’s Circle Art Part 1

Today, my 18-month old and I decided to create something to matte & frame for her wall. We used a circle punch to make a lot of colorful circles from scrap paper, glued them on a piece of heavy card stock, scanned it and using Photoshop, created a few variations to start our design process with.

We will finish our project tomorrow and send it to the printer, then matte and frame it for her room. Check back tomorrow night for the final artwork!

My Little Package of Perfection

Love comes in small packages! Mmmmm…. sweet!

My Sweet One

Last week on our move from Fort Campbell, KY to Austin, we spent our first night in a Comfort Suites Hotel about 50 miles south of Memphis. Sophia was pretty sleepy in the morning. It was so calming to watch her sleep. She’s an amazing, precious child.

Swing Baby, Swing!

Happiness is a swing on a sunny day!

Little Miss Personality!

My daughter’s definitely got personality! She’s showing off her cute little personality because she has an audience! Her Grandpa is in town!

Spring Blossoms

It’s beautiful in Kentucky this time of year. There are these gorgeous blooming trees all over Fort Campbell.
