Wow, look at all those photos!
I'm still catching up, and since I took a bunch of photos, here are some of them.
9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15.
Piper loves clapping, and enjoys taking your hands and clapping them together!
We played Thunderstone over the weekend. It was very fun. It is basically Dominion, re-themed as D&D.
Going out for a bit!
My girl is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute.

Photos, #2 and #3
I agonized over whether to host my late 365 project here. And I think I've decided the answer is Yes. So if you're following this, I hope you're ready for tons of photos of my kid.
Here's today, and its a twofer.
Model: NIKON D3000
ISO: 200
Exposure: 1/60 sec
Aperture: 3.5
Focal Length: 18mm
Flash Used: Yes
Shot on auto ('children setting') I believe
Model: NIKON D3000
ISO: 800
Exposure: 1/25 sec
Aperture: 5.6
Focal Length: 55mm
Flash Used: No
Shot on auto ('sports')
Turns out that 1/25 is slower than I want, and I plan to try again with 1/50 or 1/100.

365, 2010 (But I'm cheating)
Last year I started doing the '365 project', in which you take pictures, and post at least one picture that you've taken per day. I got 101 photos, and then I got bogged down with my awesome daughter Piper. I'm lazy as well, which does not help.
I'm doing it again, only this time I'm crazy cheating. I started on January 31st, so I'm going to do a little catchup. Additionally, I'm not going to swear to never miss a day. It is going to happen. Probably a few times. I'll try to catch up. My goal is to post 365 photos in a project this year. I'll try to make them good, though I'll warn you that the vast majority of them will probably be of Piper - well, because she's awesome.
Enjoy.
PS - I suppose a link to said photos would help. Here you are: http://picasaweb.google.com/xjermx/3652010
I recently discovered that I can stick picasaweb links in my google feed reader, and they work like magic.

This thing still work?
Man, I've had like no time/energy for blogging, really.
Go figure.
In other news, my project 365 is still clinging to life, barely. I fear it'll be a project 361 or 357 or something of that sort. I know I missed at least one day, and who knows how many other days I've missed and not even noticed.
Anyway, I AM still taking some pictures. Almost all of them are of my cute kiddo, and I'm finding very few opportunities to snap descent photos of anything else.
It is what it is.
Eventually I'll try to do some uploading.

Gregg, my father-in-law, has a D80, which I've barely been able to put down. It's an awesome camera.

Day 95: Piper and Yazhi
(for Monday, April 6)
Yazhi is super awesome with Piper. She's been very curious and interested, downright mothering, it seems. If we let her, Yazhi will get halfway into the bed and hover over Piper. Its pretty dang cute.

Day 92: Birthday!!
(for Friday, April 3)
Here we are! Everyone knows, I'm sure, especially since I'm catching up here.
Piper was born at 7:41 this morning. C Section went fine. Baby and mom (and everyone else) are doing just great. She was 8 pounds even, and 20 1/4 inches long.

Day 91: Capleville School
(for Wednesday, April 1)
The abandoned Capleville School on Shelby Drive is always fascinating to me, in the way that abandoned structures are.
I stopped to take some photos, mindful that its in a shady part of town. I looked around before I parked, made sure that there was nothing or no one suspicious looking, and that I was in clear view of the road. I locked my car and walked up the sidewalk, checking the place out, taking some photos. I could peer into the courtyard within, and in though doors standing open. I have no idea at the story behind the place. How long its stood empty, or why. Though I'm sure its a dull story about city finances or zoning, or some new school building somewhere. It's brick, and I would guess its only stood empty for a few less-than-ten-years. Still, windows are broken, its weedchoked, and there are holes in the walls and vandalism. I very briefly thought about going inside, or even right up to one of the doors to take photos, but its clearly marked with no trespassing signs, and I have no idea what kind of ruffians might be lurking within. Urban spelunking certainly appeals to me though.
Just as I'm about done taking photos, and slowly heading back toward my car, which was still in eyesight, I see a light colored SUV pull into the little driveway where my car is parked. I figure maybe he's turning around, but no, he stops, just a dozen feet from my car and sits in the SUV, watching me. He looks hispanic maybe, youngish. Now I'm watching him, still taking a couple of quick shots of the school. I'm thinking "Great, I'm going to get robbed out here." Still, I'm standing 10 feet from the street, where there is some traffic. So I continue to mosey over, watching him watching me. My car is between me and him, of which I'm a little glad, since I'm going over worst-case-scenarios. I get within voice distance as I approach my car, and give him a friendly "How's it going?", I wonder maybe if he's stopped to ask me for directions or something. He asks "Do you know who owns this place?", and I'm like "Uh, no, not really....", and then I realize that I'm standing fifteen feet away from this sign. "It's city or county property I suppose."
He fishes around his neck for a second and then shows me a badge that's hanging from a chain. "I'm a cop," he says. "Oh good," I think.
He doesn't give me a hard time, and I volunteer that I'm just taking a few photos. He nods at me and pulls out onto the street and drives away. I hop into the car and drive away as well.
Ahhh, the tiniest hint of danger is exhilarating.
