Catch the Moment 365 ~ Week 2!

I am eagerly waiting for nicer weather and daylight to last longer so I can get these kiddos outside for some better pictures! Our house has very few (and ineffective) light sources. I have enjoyed playing around more in the manual modes this week and have even learned a few new things! I hope you enjoy these few moments that I captured of my kiddos this week. :0)

Nurse Loves Farmer

January 10, 2014 A day in the life of Bailey. She was such a grump this night!
 

January 11, 2014:  Looking out the slider at our boxer. Underneath the table seems to be a favorite hiding spot!

January 12, 2014:  Bailey's favorite job, well that and taking out the trash. She's a good little helper!

January 13, 2014:  Tyler helping Daddy make salads for dinner, a family favorite.

January 14, 2014:  I was trying to get a good shot of the kids and Dad looking through the telescope, but the kids wouldn't stand still and they kept coming out blurry. This was the best one! I'm sure they'll get it back out and I'll try it again!

January 15, 2014:  Bailey's favorite snack, an orange. She loves peeling them.

 January 16, 2014:  Tyler's new army men. He loves playing with them at bath time.

I discovered this week that there is a way to change what type of lighting you are shooting in, who knew!?! After flipping my setting to the correct one, I've noticed a big difference in the coloring of my pictures especially the pictures I took of the kids in the white bathtub this week!

The munchkins are headed to Grandma's house for the extra long weekend, which means I'm going to have to find something to take pictures of other than them for a few days. A welcome challenge!

    1. It has made such a difference! Funny how something so simple can go unnoticed for so long! I've been using a DSLR for 10 years!

    1. This is pretty much her all the time. She's so independent and yet isn't quite big enough to accomplish everything she wants to resulting in many tantrums each day!

  8. I know what you mean about the crappy light inside this time of year. It's still dark when we leave in the morning and the majority of the light is gone by the time we get home. Can't wait for DST! My boys also have to take a toy to the bath every time!

    1. Exactly!! Working 6:00 am to 5:00 pm pretty much ruins all your chances with daylight photos! Something to look forward to as Spring rolls in!

  11. Oh the moods! I know them well! Is your boxer a boxer dog? I have two boxers and being a huge dork finding other boxer lovers makes me happy! :)

    1. Yes she is! She is mixed with something but no one knows what. Such a great dog with a fun personality! I just wish she didn't shed so much so she could hang inside with us. It's allergy central around here with all of the dog hair. :0(
