Savoring the Sweet
I've been really proud of myself for getting out there and taking more pictures this week. However, the more pictures I take the more frustrated I gt at not being able to take them to the level I want. For some reason I am struggling with focus and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Regardless I LOVE this picture.
We had a Craigslist debacle last weekend and ended up meeting someone at Krispy Kreme to trade back what we purchased the day before. I might have mentioned that my biggest craving this pregnancy has been donuts. I've been really good about not indulging, in fact I think I've only had 3 since Peter left. So when we met in the parking lot I couldn't help getting a couple of Little Guy and I to share.
I'm pretty sure this was his first donut and he wanted to eat it with a fork. We put on "Mickmey" and cuddled up on the couch together. It was just SO FUN! He thought the "nonut" was yummy!! I love having little moments like this with my little one. I've been overwhelmed this week about how quickly he is growing up. I want to savor every single moment. The good and the bad. The tired and the grumpy. The sweet and the even sweeter. What a precious gift this little boy is to me!

ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie! I second Gerty and definitely suggest that you follow along with Courtney's Move to Manual series. It has transformed my picture taking ability in just three weeks, so I can WAIT to see what the future has to hold for me and my old SLR!
ReplyDeleteI understand your frustration with the focus but keep at it. It will improve with practice. Courtney's Move to Manual will help.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet moment with the donuts. I'm also expecting and have been trying to soak up every one of these moments before the little arrives and I have to share myself with two.
