Un-Organizational Skills

Sometimes good things come of being un-organized. Just saying.
Since Maizey was born, we started taking a bazillion more pictures. Every time we would load them onto the computer we would put them into a folder named "Maizey". Brilliant, I know. Over the last nine months that folder has started to get huge.  I would look for certain pictures and not be able to find them because they all started to blend together. I couldn't even go by date, because every time I had to charge the battery on the camera, I had to take it out, and that would reset the date. Rather than setting it to the proper date when I put the battery back in, I would skip past it, because I was too lazy to figure out how to do it. Needless to say I have a few hundred photos dated January 2004. LAME. So I decided to put organize them into separate folders for each month and/or occasion. This turned into a huge, time consuming affair... a frustrated at technology and its lack of brains Amy and an annoyed about hearing about how stupid the stupid computer is Brian. I'm not done, probably never will be. BUT I did come across some real gems while at it.
For example...our first family photo...


And how she used to sleep...


And how she got drunk at Christmas...


Then sobered up for the modeling show...


Or the time she tried to apply purple lipstick by herself...


And my personal favorite... the one where I sneakily took a video of Brian playing with her (try to ignore the semi-creepy laugh he does... just focus on the fact that she loves it)...




So if that's what I get for being un-organized... finding something that makes me smile... then I will take it!
