Catch the Moment 365 {Week #11}

Filed Under: Family, Project 365 Tagged With: Catch The Moment

If you haven’t noticed, things have been a little slow around here. I just found out that we are expecting Baby #3 in November. We were surprised to say the least, when I saw those two little lines. We did want more but I was trying to get my weight under control before getting pregnant. I guess God had other plans. After all my life is His story. We found out Monday the 17th, which was St. Patrick’s Day. Cool thing is we found out we were pregnant with Dustyn on July 4th, pregnant with Carsyn on Labor Day. So it fell right in line with the rest.

Anyways, these were all taken with my cell phone this week. I really need to get back in the habit of picking up my DSLR again.

Catch the Moment 365 – Week #11

71. Carsyn was having an extremely fussy day. Next thing I know he had fallen asleep while drinking his milk. Guess he was tired. | 72. Cooking Spaghetti for dinner. I looked over and saw how beautiful the light was and had to capture a photo. | 73. Carsyn got his wheelchair. Very exciting day! | 74. Emmet and Wyldstyle enjoying leftover mud puddles from all the rain. | 75. Being silly with Dustyn. We have a lot of fun together. | 76.  Carsyn was mad that I woke him up from his nap to go pick up Dustyn from school. | 77. Super D eating popcorn with Super Teddy while watching a movie. Dustyn asks to watch a movie and eat popcorn every night. | 78. Yay for Spring! Very excited to see the start of leaves on our trees.

    Surprises can be wonderful. Once you think you have your life planned, God steps in to remind us who is in charge. Enjoy this time. Eating good nutrition is a wonderful goal. Be happy, take it one day at a time. Good things to come!

    I love that spaghetti picture so much! Beautiful! I like the one of Carsyn in his wheelchair, too. He looks so excited! You're camera phone pictures are inspiring! I really should catch more photos with my phone. If I don't have my camera with me, I never feel like my phone's camera is good enough. But the best camera is the camera you have with you... or something like that, right? I need to work on catching more moments regardless of the camera.

Plus, he researched for hours how to do ceramic coating so now the paint is protected and it should be easier to keep clean. The photo does not do it justice. It’s super slick and shiny.

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. 🙌🏼
