Capturing the everday: taking more photos

I am lucky enough to be able to have most of the year off with Jack (hopefully 10 months if things go as planned).  Most days when I have a quiet moment to myself I think about how lucky I am to be able to do this and how important it is to capture the everday.  Yes, sometimes being a stay at home mom can be a bit mundane at times.  But it is worth EVERY minute.

On Monday I was looking through some photos I had taken and realised I was not in any of them - I am always behind the camera and I don't want to look back in a few years or a few decades and regret not being in the photos.  So we had a day of taking photos with the both of us in them - it is hard getting the angle and position right with both the big camera and the iphone but we captured some good ones, and practice makes perfect right?

At least once a week I want to get the big camera out and put the timer on and capture the everday.  It is these photos that I will look back on fondly and remember what a special time it was being at home with the babe. ♥
