I LOVE editing Photos

I found a photo editing site that I'm super excited about.  I think it is easy to navigate and use - unlike photoshop.  I also like that there is a large amount of free edits but even the premium (pay) edits are not that expensive if you never have to visit a professional photographer again!

Here is one of my favorite pictures of Isaac so far.  I posted it yesterday after editing it on my computer then "enhancing" with a few more edits from http://www.picnik.com/ :

Cloth...One Month

We are still using cloth diapers after one month!  It is easy so far.  I'm working out the night time and compression leak issues.  Night time - Isaac is a very heavy wetter and sleeping 5-7 hour stretches was causing leaks at night.  I have ordered some all hemp/bamboo diapers that will need a waterproof cover and I'm hoping those help.  Compression leaks for those not into cloth diapers are leaks that occur when Isaac's bottom is "squished" like in his car seat.  Since the microfiber is compressed between his bottom and car seat, it cannot hold as much as normal.  I have been told to use more natural inserts - like hemp - that doesn't compress as much as microfiber.

Isaac is 7 weeks old!

Our computer fried itself almost 2 weeks ago so I have felt so lost!  I'm back now...Isaac is growing like a weed and changing everyday.  He is so alert when awake and is really starting to follow objects and reaching for things.  Isaac is so strong and able to hold his head up for long periods of time.  Here are some pictures of him last week at 6 weeks old.

Our new computer has much better photo editing software included with it....Windows 7 is so much better than Vista.  I'm almost secretly glad our old computer died!

Isaac Rolled Over!

At 5 weeks old, Isaac rolled over!  He was having tummy time (which he loves!) last night and rolled over from his tummy to back.  I thought it was a fluke because he is so young.  But he repeated it 4 more times!  Now he probably won't do it again for 3 more months......

Playing in the Rain

 We planted lots of sunflowers this year - thanks to Luke's preschool teacher that gave him all the leftover seeds.  I think we have8 or 9 stalks growing now.  Here are the boys compared to how much taller the sunflowers are right now!

I couldn't leave a post without showing off Isaac!  Here he is....one month old today.....and on a serious milk drunk!

Wordless Thursday....

Isaac is 4 weeks old today.

Can't believe Isaac is already 4 weeks old.  Time is flying by and I want it to stop...NOW.

We are going to the pool soon.  With school starting next week, our pool days are very limited.  All the boys seem to be on the mend from their recent bout with some type of virus.  Dominic has a cough remaining, Isaac seems 100%, and Luke still spikes a fever at night - but that is just how he works.

Dominic is also working on another loose tooth!  I told him last night that this tooth makes #6 in less than a year.  Unfortunately, he still doesn't have front teeth!

Cloth - Week 1

One whole week rockin' in cloth.  Its going great.  Only 5 more weeks to go to get past the neigh-sayers!  We have had a few leak issues at night - but that is to be expected when not changing as often.  We have also concluded we have a heavy wetter on our hands!

Can't wait to report how well we are doing at one month!

3 weeks old

Isaac is 3 weeks old today!  He is growing and changing before our eyes.  He is now 8lbs 6 oz and 21 3/4 inches long.  Isaac is in perfect health.

I need to get a picture of him today- right now he is taking a nap from his busy morning at the doctor's office.

Day 5 in cloth - going great!  No more leaks - even at night.  I can see how people can become addicted to buying more and more diapers with all the different cute covers.  But I'm going to control myself!
