On the Run,
originally uploaded by shutterjunky.

My first flickr upload in a long (LONG) time is now available. Lost a memory card with over 200 pictures on it back in June, so there’s a gap of a few months, including our trip to Maryland in June. Bummer.

Last weekend, Jay and his buddy Sofia received their yellow belts in Kung Fu at Alameda’s own USA Kung Fu Studio. Jay has been wearing his belt around ever since. Perhaps this is his sport? Anyway, more kid pics on www.flickr.com/shutterjunky. Probably lots more after Thanksgiving.

Also, if you’re feeling charitable, I would be most appreciative if you visit www.flickr.com/fullpressink and add fullpressink as a contact … fave or comment on a couple of photos. I am renewing my efforts to build up a photography portfolio … arty, interesting, useful or otherwise, and the fullpressink photo stream I set up on flickr is the location for it.

Oh nooooo!,

Happy Halloween! Hope to have a bunch of pictures of Jay (Harry Potter), Lucy (skeleton) and Finn (caterpillar) posted soon. They are getting dressed up today for the neighborhood and school parades and parties. And then again on Saturday for some serious trickertreatin. I’ll be dressing up for a party at work (and probably having to wear the costume to an audit committee meeting), but the hair is staying intact this year. More to come …

Family Portrait,
originally uploaded by shutterjunky.

Here’s a family portrait we took on Sunday, 8-23, for Lucy’s preschool. Yep, Lucy’s off to preschool (already!), starting next week. Even more amazing to me, Jay starts kindergarten next week! I have a ton of pictures in the backlog (including more wedding and Southern California travel shots), which I’m hoping to work on over the next several days. You can check flickr for all the latest.

Bathtime,
originally uploaded by shutterjunky.

Finn is getting bigger (predictably) and is, so far, a pretty mellow baby (thank goodness!) who loves bathtime and enjoys watching fans, lights and swingy things that make jingly noises. Jay thinks Finn’s cute and tries to help comfort him when he’s upset. Lucy mostly wants to pat his head when he’s in easy reach and/or have mommy put him away so she can sit in mommy’s lap. A couple more pics on flickr!
