Pictures and Projects

I haven't posted pictures lately because I'm in the middle of trying to organize our pictures on the computer and figure out how we are going to back them up now and in the future. Man, making sure you have all your pictures is crazy! The program we have for our pictures saves them in one place when you upload them and then a different place when you alter them. Really it's all sorts of crazy and it will take forever so sorry if it's a while before I post pics again.

In other news, I've chosen my mommy projects for the year. I'm sure others will pop up now and again, but these are the newest. The first is a taggy lovey. A lady in our ward has one and here baby loves it. Eli loves the tags on his toys so I'm thinking he'll like it too.


The next is a Hound Dog cuddle pillow. It's crochet so we'll see how it turns out. My crochet blanket turned out long and lean so this might turn out to be a wiener dog rather than a hound dog. I'm planning it for his birthday or Christmas so hopefully that will give me enough time to redo it if I need to. Yeah for time!

Oh, if any of you fun and creative people have other crafts that your kids love, let me know.

I use Picasa to organize our photos (it's free and downloadable). I really like it. Whenever I upload pictures, I pick out my favorites and sort them into monthly albums (again, in Picasa). Every month I'll also back things up to our external hard drive and every few months I'll burn back up CDs of our photos. I really don't want to lose anything. It's hard to get photo organization started, but can be fairly easy to maintain once you get going.
