In addition to my 30 tiny moments hath September: Day 2 photo, tonight I uploaded 53 photos taken over the past week or so. I’m on a mission to catch up. I don’t know if I’ll blog about everything that’s happened lately, but by gum, I’ll post the photos. I know my mom will enjoy them, even if no one else bothers to look at them.

This past April I took a photo every day of some small moment for the 30 tiny moments group on Flickr. I thought this month would be a good one to do that again. Here we go.

Day 1: Breakfast on Snail Mountain with friends. We had coffee (for the adults), milk (for the kids), and doughnuts on Snail Mountain this morning, since Brenda and Baby Bug were visiting and that is rapidly becoming our tradition.

On another note, I have so many photos languishing unedited and unposted on my hard drive right now, it’s not even funny. In addition to the photos I’ve been taking, Annalie has been a shutterbug lately, and has gotten some really funny and great shots. I’m debating opening a free Flickr account for Annalie’s photos and starting a photo blog for her on this site, like Annalie’s friend Lily has on her mom’s blog.

I have so many things I want to write about, like meeting Bonnie and her kids, the not-so-minor plumbing disaster at our old house in Maryland that is going to involve insurance companies and replacing a toilet and drywall and possibly some carpet, and how happy I am to be painting pottery again and how tickled I am to be getting custom orders. But life is happening and we’re days past some of those things and I don’t know if I’ll ever write about them.

Like our trip to the desert to visit Deborah and her kids! Remember how they came here to visit us, and we went to Sea World? Well, we went back to their house with them to visit for a few days, since our husbands were both out of town. We had a great time hanging out with them, and I took a bunch of photos and posted them in Flickr (you can see the ones from here and there in the photoset Maryland friends in California!), fully intending to write more about our visit. But somehow I just never got around to it and now that was weeks ago.

Maybe doing 30 tiny moments this month will help me keep up.

Thanks for the nudge, Sarah. I did it! Here are the last eight.

The smaller loaf of bread was Annalie’s. She wanted me to draw a sun on top, so I did.

Playgroup.

I asked the girls to line up for a photo, and Annie climbed up on the railing and started clowning around.

Finishing the puzzle. With bedhead.

Annalie watching a DVD with headphones on to block out the sound of the vacuum cleaner.

A chain I helped Annalie make, to count down the days to (1) Gramaw’s arrival on May 3rd, and (2) Annalie’s birthday on May 9th. We keep forgetting to tear links off so the chain is longer than it should be.

Aaaaaaand we’re done. After a whole month of remembering to document a tiny moment a day, I almost blew it on the last day, taking this at 11:30 pm as I was blogging and watching a cheesy flick on Oxygen.
