and so it begins

this week starts the beginning of an insane year. brian is back at unh full-time, still keeping his 3 nights a week at radici. olive and i have been sick the last two days, so it has thrown off our schedules a little... i started my first class at unh last night, but am staying home sick for tonights class and olive was supposed to start daycare yesterday, but she stayed home sick so she'll start on friday. next week olive will be in daycare twice a week, with my mom once a week and with brian's mom once a week and i will start back to work full-time. ah, the summer was fun. i'm already looking forward to next summer.

here are a couple pictures taken with brian's canon. he started his digital photography class today. he seems pretty pumped.


of course, i also like taking pictures and playing with them in iphoto. it's looking like we'll be picking up photoshop soon, for brian's class...

olive took her first big spill today. she took off running down the road and fell on the pavement. she was a champ. she got up, brushed off her hands and while tears streamed down her face just said "up" and she hugged me for a while. but then was all smiles.

she is also always smiling in the tub... she has a serious love for water for sure. depending on our schedules we're hoping to sign her up for swim lessons.

so, i'm not sure when the next post will be. i'm already regretting taking 2 classes, but i've got to suck it up for the semester. now it's off to take some cold medicine and read 3 articles, transcribe a video and search for a topic for my paper.
