This wrap is Kokoskaa Pebbles Cotton Candy, it is always so bittersweet to sell a wrap and get it into a new home. On one hand I'm so sad to see it go because it is lovely but on the other hand I'm glad it will be worn more than what it will at our house. I know many people may not understand the love of wrapping, but for those that do fully understand know my sadness! Babywearing has been both a life saver and a sanity saver. I love it so much and will be sad when we are done, although that won't be for a few more years, but these wearing days are numbered and lately I have started to realize those numbers will eventually be gone.
Taking a self portrait is never easy! Add a kid into the mix and get double the difficulties, but I think I managed fairly well. Only took about 37 throw away photos to get these 3 photos that I liked. There not perfect by any means but I'm happy with them and I captured what I wanted.

This photo project is 10 photos on the 10th of each month. I started participating in this photo project after following another local photographer friend Sara Arrigoni of The Blessed Everyday Photography through her 10-on-10 project. I wasn't sure I was going to be doing this months photo project, but I've missed getting out my camera to take photos of my girls. Melia is such a great little model for me when she wants to be. Emery is at the very hard stage to photograph, she is on the move so much and she never wants to sit still and definitely doesn't listen. In the two below photos the perfect example of how different these girls are to photograph. Melia I told her to just put the book covering her face while Emery was just doing her own thing and eating the book like usual. Window light is so much fun to play with, it always creates such dramatic photos. Since I didn't intent this photo I didn't get around to cleaning off the window. Next time! This photo Melia really wanted to take a photo, but with my camera being heavy I'm not really going to let her use it on her own, so I helped hold it, focus it and then she clicked the photo and kinda guided where to point the photo. This is what she took a cut off photo, but it still turned out cute! Emery always does this little scrunchy face, it is just too adorable and sometimes she even growls and puts her hands up like claws. These two don't always play well together, but when they do I'm so happy. Before this though they were screaming at each other and I had to remind Melia that Emery doesn't always know how to play together so big sister has to show her and help her. This kid is just too adorable!!! I love her serious and funny faces! She is my good little model as long as it only takes a few minutes then she is done and off playing. Emery was wanting to be in the photo as well, but girl doesn't know how to sit and listen to directions just yet! During nap time Melia gets to play with her little shopkin toys, since these aren't little toddler friendly they don't get to come out as often as she would like.
While this day I didn't have my camera out the whole day I'm glad I still brought it out for part of the day to capture these two trouble makers in action. I've got to stay on top of documenting their little lives, it goes by so fast! |
