Hello to you!

I am a busy Mom of 3, My eldest is a girl who is 6 and 2 boys who are 4 and almost 3month. I have been with my husband for nearly 12yrs and have been Married for 5.

I love taking pictures of my kids and random stuff. I would love to learn more about photography and how to use my camera. I am sure over the next 365 days there will be a few days that I will take horrible pictures of nothing LOL. but I will do my best to get on here everyday and post.

I would love to have feed back from any of you to help me better my skills.

Day 21~ For the Love of the Suckie

Its crazy how such a little item can make or break a moment. We lost this today and spent an entire day suckie free. I will admitt it was a bit more stressful then most days but we did survive. We chose to use the suckie apose to allowing our little people to use their thumb as we can take the suckie away and not the other. My Dh is totally against thumb sucking! :) Taankfully Little T has not placed himself too attached to our little friend.

Day 19~ Steel Drum Band


At our local church they have rented out storage space to a wonderful steel drum band. From time to time we are privledged enough to recieve a free show of their talents. Here is a photo of them practicing. My Kids love to dance while they are practicing! The sounds of the steel drum makes me want to be back in the carribean, My ILs lived in Grenada when M was first born, we were lucky enough to be able to visit them while they were there. The sounds of steel drum make me feel relaxed, almost like we can do things without the hussle and bussle of busy life.

DaY 16~ My fur baby

Here is my first baby who will be 9yrs old this year, his name is Jester. He is quite possibly the most grateful cat I have ever come across. He had a very hard kitten hood. He was found in a garbage bag on the side of the road with all of his sibling dead. :( he was malnuturished and missing teeth. When I saw the 2 lb ball of fluff my heart melted. Jester is an indoor cat who is terrified of the outdoors. He is wonderful children. I wouldnt change trade him for any other pet!
