working on growing

Want to hear a funny story? So Friday night I logged on to the admin area of my blog and saw hundreds of comments. My first thought was, “Woah…I did not expect people to miss my daily updates that much.” Then I remembered it was a giveaway post. I’ll pretend it was just you guys missing me 🙂

So glad you all liked the giveaway. I wish I could give away 4×4 prints to all of you, but the Mpix winner is Shannon (email slm14…..). Shannon, you should have an email from me.

In other news, I’m taking a photography class. In my time off from blogging this month, I wanted to work on growing as a photographer. In recent months, I’ve felt like I was kind of doing the same ole’ thing regarding photography. I want to continue to grow in all areas of my life, but man sometimes it is hard to do anything but status quo when you have little ones and work to do. So this month, I am being challenged and inspired by Kristin Rogers and other students in her The Inspired Home course. The course is part photography and part home. Last week we focused on phone photography, so I forced myself to set my dslr down and capture my days primarily with my phone.

It was a fun challenge, but I am looking forward to being reunited with my dslr this week! With that being said, here are a few iPhone pics from the last week. I’ll begin with Little One’s smile. We are still waiting on the top layer of glue/tape to come off….soon.

Happy Monday evening. This not regular posting has me posting at strange times. I’ll be back in a new groove in February!
