Outtakes

Outtakes.  Sometimes they are better than the "polished" one, don't you think?  This is what it's like to try and get a photo with a squirmy girl (Poesy) and a girl who has a hard time not having a least one leg in the air at all times (Hope).  They always keep it interesting, that's for sure!
I think today I'm feeling extra grateful for this family and this life in general.  Yes, sometimes I feel too tired or too busy, but the truth is, I am the one responsible for making the time for things.  Time for friends, time for work (and turning off "work mode"), time for travel, etc…  you fit into your life what you make time for, and I'm thankful to have those things.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

    I usually like the outtakes more. Eheh. These are awesome. And yes, you're right, we are each responsible for the time we take. But man would it be nice if I didn't have a full time day job and could focus on my children & home. Then after hours, I'd have time to do other things...

    I think these are the ones that will stand the test of time. While posed shots are aesthetically pleasing, they don't capture the moment as much as these kinds of photos do; they're such a treasure to have.

    Thanks for sharing these, they're so lovely and really show us the characters of your children. :)

    I love the one on the bottom left, the face you're pulling is great! Haha. I agree that the outtakes are often better, I have some great 'outtake' shots with my friends x
