The Babies, Camera, and the Blog

Two sweet miracles occurred in my life this week. Rebecca Henderson and Sela Monk were born! I have not yet made it to Birmingham to see Rebecca in person but her pictures are adorable. I did get to see and hold little Sela last night. She is so sweet. Both girls and their moms are healthy and happy. The deliveries went about as well as a delivery can go. I am so thankful for answered prayers in that area for my sweet friends Laudan and Dusti! Congratulations!!!!

While photographing Sela, our new camera got dropped. The lens is cracked. This is very frustrating. It was a total accident and in the grand scheme of things is not a big deal. But we just got it a little over a month ago to replace a different broken camera. It will be a while before we can splurge again to replace it.

So I don't have any pictures to post of Sela. And I won't have any to post of Noah for awhile. Maybe it is God's way of telling to back off how obsessive I am about blogging! So I am going to try to make this my last post from school on my planning period and limit my blog reading to home and my lunch hour (well twenty minutes).

THAT SUCKS!!!! :( :( I'm so sorry, Carrie!! So, it got dropped on the first pic you guys were taking of Sela, huh?? That's the WORST! If I had the money, I'd give it to you to fix it cause being this far away, I RELY on your pics of Noah and all the other babies! *sigh. Sad day! What kind of camera did you guys end up getting, anyway?

PS - Cute header on your blog!!! Did you photoshop it?

I got a couple of pictures of Sela. I will use the card reader to get them off the camera. We are taking it to Wolf to see if it can be fixed. The header I made on scrapblog.com. It is so fun. They have stickers and backgrounds and all sorts of stuff. Then you save it as a jpeg and there you go!

I am so sorry Carrie!! I hope you can get it fixed!! I love the new look of the blog too. I might have to check out that website!

I made a new design for my blog using your website suggestion... check it out when you get a chance! It took me forever... there were so many options and I could not decide what "look" I wanted to go for.

I am so so so sorry about the camera. I can't believe it, for real.
