Playing in the leaves as the wind blows! Abstract for sure, but I love the effect it has!

Action Photography Entry 1:

I am starting to get the courage to post some pics to photography contests...I suppose I must start somewhere if I am ever going to knock any items off of my bucket list so here is my first entry. This was the day after Hurricane Irene passed through Charleston, SC where my brother lives and often surfs and I found it rather comical just how many sitting ducks I caught waiting for that perfect wave!

YOWZA!!!

Man, are we having a day here in the Downam household or what!? I have a serious case of the "Mondays" now too! Cooper decided, oh yesterday, that he is too big of a boy to take two naps and his morning nap is out! Yes, the child hasn't yet turned one, yikes! So naturally, he would begin teething in full-swing at this point too! One bottom tooth cut through over the weekend and I feel two more poking through right now, just barely! Three teeth, possibly four of his first teeth at one time, yikes! Cole also thinks he's too big to take his one afternoon nap for the past few days too, yikes! At this point they have both been in their rooms well over an hour and neither of them is sleeping! Cole also refuses to go pee pee on the potty although he loves hearing the potty dance and pointing to his bum and letting me know that there is "poo poo in 'eyer mommy!" Ayayayay! To brighten this up a little let me just help you get over your case of the mondays....there is a giveaway for this awesome detergent over at the leaves of my tree blog! I am for some reason unable to put the link in here...but you can also find the link through her facebook page...just go "like" leaves of my tree! And the detergent doesnt have to just be used on cloth diapers....if you want to go eco this new year....wash all your loved threads in it! They'll smell nice, you'll be erasing your carbon footprint, and your clothes will be insanely clean!
