I thought she was just being affectionate … turns out she had a stomach bug. The only good thing about babies being sick is the sweet cuddles. As an added bonus, our cat Emmett joined in the snuggles.

Photo of the Day: My Little Yoda
Baby K’s first Halloween! Despite the cold, (Truck or Treat last Sunday was 86 degrees; last night was 40 degrees) we had fun trick-or-treating. Baby K Daddy got lots of great candy! I almost felt guilty taking the candy, but it was nice to meet some of our neighbors.

Photo(s) of the Day: Happily Ever After
Last weekend I got to be a part of a truly picture-perfect wedding. The weather was gorgeous (actually, hot for October), the bride was breathtaking, and most importantly – the couple was so obviously in love. A perfect beginning to a beautiful marriage.
(Since I was in the wedding, I unfortunately didn’t get to take many pictures.)
Photo(s) of the Day: A Heavenly Day
Yesterday was a very special day – our beautiful Baby K was baptized. We were so blessed to have so many people there to witness the occasion – close family, Godparents, friends from our small group, and a large and loving congregation. I feel so incredibly lucky to have such wonderful people in our lives … looking after and praying for Baby K. To all of you … thank you!




Has it really been five years?
Today is our five-year wedding anniversary. Has it really been that long? I remember every detail of the day so vividly, it feels like yesterday.





We’ve been through many life experiences – going back to school, job changes, buying a car and home, vacations, and of course most importantly – a beautiful baby girl. Happy anniversary hubby! Five years is just the beginning.
These photos were all taken by Parigo Studios. We were so happy to have them as our photographers. I only added my watermark because I don’t want anyone stealing the photos.
Family Portraits | Still Love This Family
I had the privilege of shooting photos for this fun family this weekend. I’ve been doing photos for them since they got engaged about six years ago! I’ve come a long way as a photographer since then. The entire family is so photogenic – it’s never hard to walk away with a ton of great pics. I also got to do the little one’s one-year photos … more on that to come!
Photo of the Day: Eight Months Old
Baby K is eight months old today! Check out how much she’s changed since last month.
Oh, and we’re wearing blue to support the ROYALS! They made it to the World Series the year I was born and the year my baby was born. Historic!
Kyleigh’s Gift 5k
This weekend we participated in a very special event – the first annual Kyleigh’s Gift 5k/3k Run/Walk. It was held in conjunction with National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day in memory of Kyleigh, a baby who passed away unexpectedly during childbirth. The money raised goes toward a fund her family started to provide sleep sacks for each baby born at Liberty Hospital. It’s a cause near and dear to many people’s hearts – most of us know someone who has lost a baby or had a miscarriage.
On a more upbeat note – I loved the lively atmosphere with all the kiddos! Check out the photos below.
