arrorró...



I've dedicated a little section of Kai's room for Diego's crib. It was lacking something, so I decided to put a word phrase on the wall. I checked out several online companies and they wanted more than $75 for the phrase I wanted. Outrageous! So I had a brilliant idea and called a local sign company that also makes vinyl lettering for business and they said they could do it for less than $20. Stupendous! I put it up and I absolutely love it! I went with an old Mexican lullaby that my mom would sing to us and that I sing to my boys.

I just love Photoshop actions! They make my life so much easier. I can't get enough of editing photos recently since I just upgraded to PSCS2. It is awesome! Can't imagine how I did without it for so long. I also added a few actions to my collection. They're a set created by Marie C (http://justmariec.typepad.com/). I really like them, but I'm just trying to personalize them to my style. These are some pictures using Color Love without any tweaking. Not sure if I completely like them or if I need to tone them down. I'm still trying to decide. (This baby was sooo cute! He had the funkiest hair. I love babies with personality.)

Hi Jessica...you should be getting an email from me soon (I know I can be so terrible at responding to email), but I wanted to say that this session looks great (a bit of color balance or a smidge less saturation will be the icing on the cake), but truly great pics. Oh, and the saying on the wall....lovely!!! I definitely going to have to steal that idea from you! :)
