Capturing Perfection

I never though I would be interested in photography. As you all know, I like taking and having pictures. I want to capture memories that may not be imprinted completely to my brain. However, the quality of the picture never really mattered to me before. Turns out, all I needed was a muse. After having Gavyn, I became a little obsessed with taking pictures of him. I became increasingly frustrated with the quality of them. I didn't like the way the flash altered his features, making him look like a different baby. I also didn't like how without the flash, my pictures were blurry. While I really like my little point-and-shoot, it was time for an upgrade. Enter my new DSLR camera. From the very first picture I took, I was amazed. After learning a few things about it, I was even more impressed. I am so happy with this investment. Its not just for me either....everyone gets to enjoy the product it creates.

Some recent news...Gavyn is taking steps! He is not walking yet, as my cautious little fellow hates falling on his bum and is quite content holding someones hand, but he has been standing by himself for some time and I can get him to take a step to me now. When he does decide to let go of our finger, I'm expecting him to break into a run, as he has had plenty of practice.

We have also been working hard to get the Allerton house painted. I absolutely love the colors we picked out and it is really starting to look like our own. John is planning on getting the floor in the kitchen this weekend after I paint it. I can't wait to uncover the furniture and sit down in our living room!

Here are some pictures with my amazing new toy....enjoy!
