The most photographed 4th child.....




I swear Gracie is the most photographed 4th child ever! LOL! Well, I'm sure she isn't but I hear people all the time say how they have so many pictures of their 1st child but hardly any of any children after the first. That is NOT the case with me at all. I took TONS of pictures of my 1st, even more of my 2nd, even MORE of my 3rd and now an insane amount of pictures of my 4th!! I have a slight obsession with capturing EVERY moment with my camara. I know my husband finds it annoying at times, that I have to pull the camera out at the most random times and try to get pictures. I know someday they won't be little and I want to capture every precious moment. My camera has actually been acting up for over a year now. It still takes GREAT pictures but sometimes when I go to snap the picture it won't do ANYTHING. So frustrating when you are about the capture a sweet moment on camera and then it doesn't take the picture. It dropped off my shoulder about a year and half ago (remember Denise? I was with you at Fun City Pizza!) I need to take it in to get fixed HOWEVER I can't bear the thought to be without my camera while it gets fixed! So I'm just dealing with my dysfunctional camera for the time being. I have a Nikon D50. I want to get a new lens for it and expand my photo taking skills. I have SO much to learn and my camera is capable of doing so much more than I do with it. You think I take a lot of pictures right now? Just wait until I learn how to take more creative pictures! Here are some ADORABLE pictures of my over-photographed 4th child.

Crap. I had saved what I was going to say, then I did something else and it erased it.

She is so adorable! I remember when you dropped it and were so upset. If you get a new lens, then you can take the current one to get fixed in the mean time.

I like the new background. I think I am going to try a new one too :)

oh my gosh, I LOVE your blog. Your kids are so adorable. How cool that you are a homeschooling mom too. I am just getting into that season of my life. NEVER dreamed that I was going to be a homeschooling mom, but the Lord had different plans. I look forward to meeting you through your blog. Thanks again for your sweet and encouraging comments on my blog. It is a new venture, but my desire is to help people save lots of money and take the burden of debt off of their life! :) Have a wonderful week.

Jessica, thanks for the comment about my blog! I LOVE you blog too! :) So you'll be homeschooling too? We are VERY new at it. I just started in Feb.

But it's definetly not easy but God is guiding us and I can already see the benefits of it. back to your blog, you are doing a GREAT job and your info will be a great help to those trying to save money. So GREAT JOB! Thanks again for the comments!
