Pregnancy Blog – Week 23

This post really doesn’t have much to do with pregnancy, but it’s a funny story about what happened to me this week in my pregnancy.  I hope you enjoy reading it!
Wednesday I went up to Allen to see my eye doctor for a follow up visit.  I had picked up my new glasses with their [...]

Pregnancy Blog – Week 22

Week 22
I was not a very good blogger last week!  Last week was a fairly low key week for me pregnancy wise.  But I do have one story and a photo for you.
Jake and I are taking Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University and have put ourselves on a very tight budget while we get ourselves [...]

What did you say?

What?  You want to see some new shots of Shep?  Oh ok, since you begged!
 

Pregnancy Blog – Week 21

Has anyone ever heard of a spaghetti squash?  I had not, maybe I’m the only one, but according to Baby Center, that apparently is about the size of my baby right now.

It looks about right to me.  All of a sudden this past week, I felt like I looked pregnant for the first time.  It [...]

Above and Beyond!

I’m so excited to announce the Above and Beyond blog by Debi Chapman.  I photographed Debi for her blog last month because as she put it, “I realized the most recent picture I had of myself alone was taken by the Department of Public Safety…before that, it was my bridal portrait.”  I’m so excited to [...]

Pregnancy Blog – Week 20

Week 20
It’s official, we have ourselves another boy!
I am very excited about this for a number of reasons.
#1) I was right.  I thought it was a boy, and there is great validation in being right, am I right?
#2) Since we already have all boy stuff, I will only need to register for a few things [...]

Pregnancy Blog – Week 19

Week 19
Aaaahhh hormones!  This morning I woke up feeling so completely unmotivated, blah, grouchy and yucky.  At 11:30, I was still moping around in my bathrobe with wet hair.  I finally made a hair appointment since my hair is SO long and thick and I was feeling so sorry for myself that I didn’t even [...]

Pregnancy Blog: Week 18

Week 18
Mmmm….Baby it’s cold outside!!  Today I pulled out the Christmas music.  Early you say?  To the contrary.  For me, October is late for Christmas music!  It usually comes out in September.  Don’t judge.  Every single year my husband looks at me like I’m crazy and like he’s pretending to be surprised.  It’s the perfect [...]

Pregnancy Blog – Week 16

This was the week of the migraine.  I unfortunately have quite a lot of experience in the headache/migraine department so when hormones are awry, it’s not uncommon for migraines to come a-callin’.  This tendency has been further compounded by the fact that I’m wearing glasses with an old prescription in them as Shep broke my [...]

Lifestyle Family Photography – My Family

I am renting the wonderful fabulous  50mm 1.2 lens this week, so of course as soon as I got it, my patient boys had to go outside and be photographed!

There’s that 1.2 in action -

After being in the backyard for a while, Shep used one of his new words and asked to go on a [...]
