Catch the Moment 365 {Week #1}

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

Previously I participated in Project 365 in 2012 and 2011. I decided to take a break last year and not participate in Project 365. This year three of my favorite bloggers joined together to create Catch the Moment 365. I am so excited! I think this will encourage me to pick up my big girl camera and capture every day moments, instead of using my cell phone for everything. Though I am also participating in Catch the Moment 365 on Instagram if you want to follow me there and see every day moments with my cell phone. Anyways onto my photos this week.

Catch the Moment 365 – Week #1

Catch the Moment Week 1

1. Dustyn hanging out with Dixie. He was so excited that she was climbing up on his lap. | 2. Dustyn’s Monster Trucks left behind | 3. Found some leaves still hanging on. | 4. Carsyn concentrating on his iPad. | 5. Mess left behind by Dustyn. This is an every day occurrence, but I will probably miss it when he is older. | 6. On a nature walk with Dustyn. | 7.  Part of Carsyn’s daily routine. He takes a lot of different medicines. | 8.  You can see Dustyn’s 6 year molars coming in. Can’t believe he will be 6 in a month and a half!

    Those are really great photos. I've thought about doing the 365 project before, so perhaps I will look more in to this and watch yours too, of course.

      Thank you! I have done it a few years. It is a lot of fun and really pushes your photography skills.

    He's precious. I too have a tendency to use the camera on my phone. I love that it is connected right to my Skydrive so I never have to worry about losing photos but I do prefer how they turn out on a regular camera.

    After quitting in the middle of 2012 because I just couldn't keep up I chose to forgo 2013 as well. but I really missed it and started a separate blog so I could just post one picture a day. So far so good (except I need to edit yesterday's so it's getting put up late). I'll have to check out the Catch the Moment 365 blog. And I agree about the messes made by the kids, one day I'll surely miss it because they won't be here to make them anymore.

    I am absolutely loving these pics!. This will surely be one of your series that I will follow and look forward to :). I am following your IG now by the way as nazninazeez. By the way, each time you reply to my comments, I get a reply. How can that be set up?. I have a Wordpress account (linked to this comment). It is not self hosted but I would like my commenters to receive emails too when I reply to them. Thanks!
    • Sarah says

      January 11, 2014 at 10:46 am

      Awww. Thank you so much! So glad you are following me on IG. I use a plugin called ReplyMe. Not sure if it is available on regular wordpress but definitely look into it!
      • Naznin Azeez says

        January 11, 2014 at 12:04 pm

        Thank you I will check it out :). Can you also tell me which domain (like Godaddy) and hosting service (like Bluehost) are you using?. I will one day move to self hosted Wordpress.
        • Sarah says

          January 11, 2014 at 3:56 pm

          We use http://www.ace-host.net/ and have had great service and experience with them
