I got to keep Jaryd the other day, all by myself, that's the first time they've thought I could keep up with him without help since I came home from the hospital.  Heck, I couldn't keep up with him before the surgery... but his mom goes back to work next week so I'll be back to babysitting him once a week.  Luckily, I don't have to keep Avary that would be way too much.

We spent the day watching Kung Fu Panda 2 or 3 times till it warmed up a little outside and then we went out and played.  He moved some dirt with his trucks for awhile and wandered around the yard looking at the horses and stuff.  Then he took a walk in the cornfield, I have to go with him so he doesn't get lost, and started collecting leaves and stuff.  I told him his mom probably wouldn't like a basket of leaves in the house and why don't he help grandpa take pictures of them and he could take the pictures home.  That suited him so we collected various objects to shoot and took them inside where he helped hold and position them.  I won't bore you with all the pictures we shot... I'll just bore you with these 6.  Seven if you count him in the corn.

I have been learning photoshop elements, its fun, but more time consuming than just posting after cropping, straight from the computer.  Here are a couple I converted to black and white.

Life has been way out of control for me. I haven't had time to post, but I do sneak in a little thru out the day. Here are some old shots of the Ford which some requested when I posted the windshield of it.

I also have a wind photo, the wind was bending the corn over one day, I had to stop and take a photo.
