Family Shoot 2013

It has been a while since I last posted on the blog and a lot has happened. The main one being that … WE HAD A BABY!! Our lives have been turned upside down and inside out but we just adore our little man. I could not get my act together to get a newborn shoot with him so this is our first bunch of family pictures together. It was pretty rushed as I had just booked it the week of and the photos were edited just in time to get Christmas cards ordered (& hopefully sent on time). We had the shoot with the lovely Ginger over at Thibodeau Designs. She does excellent work with children and was able to do a 20 minute mini-session with us. Pictures turned out beautifully. Here are my favorites!

 

 

I’m back!

Hello everyone … I’m back! I have surprisingly been away from the blogging world since January! I cannot believe that it has been so long. I am somewhat disappointed in myself as a blogger because I thought I was going to be writing much more consistently. I even went so far as to buy a blog template (at a reasonable price thank goodness) and then … POOF! I disappeared. I must admit that there has been a lot going on in my life lately which probably explains why I have not been able to blog.

Back in October, my husband and I had received the best news of our lives. That we were EXPECTING!!  Overall, I’ve had a very easy pregnancy. I experienced very little nausea in the first trimester (never got sick) which I consider myself very lucky for. I did however, experience extreme fatigue which made teaching my 5th graders very challenging. I SLEPT A LOT during that first trimester.  and then all over a sudden… I regained normalcy in the second trimester. I had a little extra bounce in my step and had tons of energy again. 2nd trimester was by far my favorite. Then 3rd trimester hit. The fatigue has returned once again as well as a number of other symptoms that have been somewhat unpleasant. But the end is near! I am exactly one month (+ a day) away from my due date and getting extremely anxious to meet our little bundle of joy! I keep thinking of the moment when I get to hold our son for the very first time and my heart melts.

 

 

 

 

On Tuesday evening, we had the pleasure of working with the amazingly talented Jenna Lymburner (www.jennalymburner.com) who photographed a maternity shoot for us. It was absolutely perfect!

 

Here are a couple sneak peaks from our shoot!

 

 




I CANNOT WAIT to see the rest! : )

 

Happy Thursday to you all!
