March Photo Challenge

I've decided to participate in the March Photo Challenge sponsered by Belle from Scrambled Eggs. It seemed like a fun thing to do and I'm hoping it will challenge me since I really don't like taking pictures.

It started at the beginning of March so I have about 11 pics to take (wow, I really didn't think this through).

I'm a little late, but I think I will show two pics a day until I'm caught up.

I'll post the first two.





1) Self Portrait



Yes, its upside down, which kind of reflects how I feel my life has been the last 8 years living with IF. I'm sure one of these days things will eventually right themselves, but for now life is a bit topsy-turvy. 

I've noticed that I get "the weepies" about once a month at the beginning of each month. I'm not sure if it still has to do with grief from the failed adoption, or if its just the frustration from the stagnantion of our current adoption situation, or both. There really isn't anything I can do about it, except allow myself to feel those emotions and end up with a crying hangover.

On the upside, I kind of like how skinny my face looks in this picture.

2) feet

Now this is just an excuse to post a picture of James. As you can see he has got so much bigger since January, and he is the ultimate little brother to Jack. He starts fights and then cries if Jack gets "too rough" (which is pretty hilarious since he started the fight in the first place). He is the total opposite of Jack in personality. He is extremely vocal, lets you hold him, and is very playful (though I'm sure Jack was when he was 6 months old).

:(  My foot looks chubby. Maybe a pedi will make it look thinner?
