Brotherly Love

Filed Under: Family, Photography Tagged With: carsyn, dustyn

I really love seeing the boys together. They are so adorable. Carsyn is laughing and talking to Dustyn all the time. Dustyn is so sweet and will share his toys with him. We will see how that goes when Carsyn is actually walking and taking his toys. ha ha.

Carsyn trying to give Dustyn a kiss.

Dustyn returning the favor.

Got them both to look at the camera, but couldn’t get Carsyn to smile.

I love my boys.

    AWWWW! Just look at them together - it warms my heart so much! I love seeing my kids being tender with each other. I hope that one day my daughter will think that one of the best gifts I ever gave her is her little brother :)

    I love how you didn't try to pose them and just let them do "what they do"! I'm also taking the class and I think it's going to be good to get me out of my box and think about different things to shoot in different ways. It's all about the journey. Nice job with this set of photos.

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
