Photography

I have always loved photography and taking pictures.  When I was younger I was pretty much obsessed with taking pictures of myself.  Normal teenager right.  I didn't really get into more than just a "hobby" until we had a baby.  I had a reason to take lots of pictures.  Being able to capture all of those special moments of our little one was important to me.  I always tried to be creative and work with what I had.  Then Jake surprised me with a Nikon dSLR camera.  I thought finally I can get good pictures. Boy was I wrong, I thought since I have a good camera I should now be able to take these great pictures now.  Yes the quality of the pictures were good but they weren't what I was expecting.  The first year that I had the camera I shot in the different auto modes.  I tried playing with manual and I had no clue what I was supposed to do with it.  I started reading more and one day I finally grasped the concept of manual.  I was starting to take better pictures.  I got many compliments on them.  About a month ago I got a new lens, and that has made the biggest difference for me.  I have so many more settings that I can play with and get more creative.  I now am loving taking pictures more than I used to.  I could see myself doing this for a living one day.  I have so much more to learn, I am so excited to be able to one day give the gift of capturing those special moments in peoples lives.  Right now I know that I want to do baby and child photography.  Connecting with adults isn't always the easiest thing for me.  Excited to see where this passion takes me!

Potty Training Adventures

We have been potty training for about 4 months or so.  And then it kind of clicked some days he does really well and other days he has many many accidents. It's also training myself  to be very aware of where we are going and making sure that there is a restroom and all of that fun stuff. We used to let him run around with out any underwear on, one time he pooped on the floor I walked in and asked K what did you do? "Bagle did it" He said it as if it's really what happened. Blaming things on the dog already. What is he going to be like when he has a little brother or sister. He would much rather pee standing outside or in the shower. Trying to get him to go on his potty consistantly hasn't been much fun.  We take two steps forward and one back. It sure has been a long process but can't wait for it to be over with! This parenting isn't all fun all the time. It's hard at times but I sure wouldn't change it for the world. And for fun a couple of pic...

Things Kohen says

I’m going to update this as I find them and he says them. 3/26/2018 Conversations with Kohen on the way to school. K-Do you think they will take away our 2nd amendment? M-No, but they might try.  What happens when they do take away that? K-Like what Hitler did, he was controlling and powerful, killed a lot. Kohen actually went into more depth than what I put on here and I was pretty surprised which I shouldn’t be. 2/23/2018 On the way home from school Kohen looks at Kaiya and says “ugh...mean mom, why didn’t she take your braces off? Don’t worry I’ll take them off” “There you go, now give me your other foot so I can get that one too.” “Is that better?” “I bet your more comfortable now aren’t you?” “Mom, Kaiya smiled so she must have liked that I took them off right?” My heart just grows and grows for this boys heart. I didn’t think anything about Kaiya having her afo’s on but Kohen was very concerned that she was uncomfortable. 6/20/2015 Kohen trying to convince his ...

Exhausted

It’s been a really rough, exhausting month. I haven’t broke down yet but I can feel it coming.  The unknown, the wondering why. It’s hard. It plays with your mind. It’s exactly what satan is trying to do. Trying to drive a wedge in my faith. My faith, my God is so much bigger and stronger. I know he has Kaiya in his hands. He’s taking care of her no matter what lies ahead. 🙌🏻
