Capturing Memories & Why having Trigger Finger isn't that bad • Ali Brugman

Capturing Memories is SO Important to Me.

I often tend to have “Trigger Finger,” especially during Millie’s first year. I’ve realized that lately, I haven’t been getting my real camera out and taking good videos and pictures. I guess I should make that my new years resolution.

This morning, Millie and I were watching some old videos of her as a baby. She loved it so much to see her little self learning and growing. It made me sad at first to see that my little baby is gone… but then grateful that I documented so much from that time.

This video in particular was a great one. We were living in Wisconsin for part of the summer (for baseball of course), and we had an off day that we spent in Chicago visiting friends. We took Millie to Lake Michigan & it was so refreshing to see water and have a break. Here is a little compilation I put together back then:

For christmas, my sweet friend Brooke gave me an Fujifilm Instax Mini 8 (Polaroid camera) & I just loooove it! We had so much fun with it especially during the holidays. I love the idea of taking instant miniature pictures at events and when friends come to visit. I found some very adorable ways to display them around the house, at parties, bridal showers, & weddings.
