Today: One wide-awake baby, one tired big sister... an me taking that extra few minutes, in the afternoon light, to take a photo or two I am happy with.

Yesterday: Thankyou for your encouraging and kind words. I needed them!

Such a beautiful subject... such a crapola shot. Which is how I'm feeling about so many of the photos I am taking right now. They are all wrong: wrong light, wrong shutter speed, out of focus etc etc. With three kids on my hands I feel like I am rushing around all day and my photos are starting to reflect that rushed energy. I need to slow down and focus.

But, even in this low-light, blurry capture, I see Maddi's personality shining through. Such a happy, inquisitive character she is.

I declare this to be the week of baby Maddison pics! Whether blurry or sharp, amatuer or awesome - the week is all about her. She is already on her way to being 7 weeks old. It's going too fast. If I wait for the "perfect" photo opportunity, the "perfect" light, the "perfect" time... I will miss my chance to document these precious, fleeting, baby days altogether.

So, brace yourselves for a week of not-so-perfect photos of my perfect little angel.
