{ My Funny Valentine} Brody's Valentine's Day Shoot 2015

{ Hello }
Can you believe it is almost February?! Where is time going?! My friend Stacy, who owns Big Announcements made a facebook post about Valentine's day cards and I realized, holy pregnancy brain! I completely forgot all about Brody's Valentine's day cards! I like to make them and send them to our family with a current picture of B! With the hustle of 2015, I completely forgot! So we ran to the studio and took a quick set! Thank you Stacy for reminding me! Also Please check her design company out, she personally designs all my families Christmas Cards, Birth Announcements, Nursery Decor.

{ Time sure flies } Averie turns 1!

{Hello}

As a parent myself its insane how fast a year can fly, as a photographer it feels just as fast! Meet Averie and her big sister Hadley! Two of my favorite little ladies! I've had the joy of capturing Averies milestones her first year and luckily Hadley joins us along the way! They are the sweetest, most caring little girls. I am so glad to know them and their pretty awesome parents too!

Happy First Birthday Averie!

{ Brody Michael } 18 Months

My nephew Jacob asked me the other day , " Why do you say ages in months? Why don't you just say he's one??". And honestly, I didn't really have an answer in that moment. Because every other mom does it???!! But the truth is, beyond the fact that from 0-24 months your baby goes from a sleepy snugly baby to a rambunctious toddler. Or is it because every month is developmentally different than the next. For me I think it comes down to it makes me still feel like he is my baby. 

For months after Brody was born I found myself saying , " I just had a baby". Even though he would be 8 months old, I still felt like I was a fresh new mom. The truth is I still am. I am still learning, growing and making mistakes. But like any mom, I wouldn't trade my new life for any job in the world.

Brody is officially 18 months on Saturday but I took him out on a beautiful sunny day with his favorite pal Mickey to get some shots of him. He does not sit still and rarely cooperates for pictures these days. So this is what we got. But honestly, this is Brody at exactly this age. Capturing him at exactly who he is. Full of life and energy and kisses for Mickey. I hope you enjoy a glimpse into my favorite little boy!
