Miscellaneous Monday
I don’t want to live behind the camera, but I do want to capture our everyday life too… and sometimes finding a balance in doing so is not easy. Every once in a while I feel like I haven’t been too good at taking pictures of ordinary moments, and so I’ll bring out the camera and try to do just that. Which is what I did last week. Kennedy and Bristol were in their room playing and so I walked up to the door with my camera and started snapping away…at first they didn’t even notice me, and then when they did notice, they took advantage of the fact they could jump on the bed (while I just stood there taking pictures instead of reminding them – as I do daily – “no jumping on the bed!”) and acted silly. I love these ‘real’ moments, which are made even better by the fact these are taken in their room, because I know we’ll love looking back on them one day….
And for those of you who’ve asked “do they ever fight?” Oh yes! They do…. I really am amazed at how well they get along, and how much they take care of each other, but they do fight too. Of course, it wouldn’t be normal if they didn’t, right? :)
Lately, there has been a reoccurring argument that goes something like this:
driving down the road… Kennedy is amazed at the corn that is currently growing in the fields…and after the first time this happened, it is like Bristol just knows that it annoys Kennedy and so she disagrees all the more!
Kennedy: Mom, is that corn fields?
Me: Yep
Kennedy: Momma thats so cool! Corn is a vegetable, right?
Me: Yep, thats right.
Kennedy: Look Bristol! There is corn growing out there!
Bristol: No its not…thats gwass! (grass)
Kennedy: No, its corn.
Bristol: (yelling) NO ITS NOT! ITS GWASS! ITS GWASS SISSY!
Kennedy: (now also yelling) IT IS NOT! ITS CORN! Momma, Sissy said that is grass, and it is not, its corn!
Yep, it goes something like that till I make them both hush.
Oh, and every once in awhile Kennedy thinks it is hilarious to go running off with Bristol’s Minnie Mouse (whom she dearly loves) and the other day I had to rescue Minnie who Kennedy had thrown up on top of the fridge. Poor Bristol was trying to get a kitchen chair scooted over to reach her - as if she could!
Happy Monday everyone, and thanks for looking!
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE….THESE PIXS!! THE PIGTAILS ARE TO CUTE
Precious, and you’re so right, you’ll love looking back on these candid moments. I have to ask, did you stop snapping long enough to turn around the “K” above Kennedy’s bed, haha?
Yep! I sure did once they realized I was there..it was bugging me! haha!
These are precious!! Great everyday pics. They will soooo love looking back at their room decor. Can;t believe how big Kennedy is getting….definitely out of the toddler stage and into the youngun stage!!
I loveee these little moments! And I noticed the ‘k’ was turned around too, I thought it was supposed to be backwards on purpose until I saw the pictures later, haha! And their room is so super cute!
LOVE these pix and these moments you capture…
Love this! And I thought the same thing on the “K”! These little girls are precious. There’s nothing like having sisters
hahaha the corn field made me laugh so hard, I love it.. & I love Kennedy & Bristols room, it’s adorable!
