Harvest!

We have been so crazy busy around here! Last weekend was the Harvest Carnival at our school, Multiple Intelligences Academy! We had such a wonderful time! The girls had their faces painted and loved it! The little ladybug and bumblebee stayed on their faces for about 3 days! I wouldn't dare try to wipe it off! :)




Such cute little bugs!

Overwhelmed.... :)

Yep, that's me! When am I not overwhelmed lately?? Maybe when I finally fall asleep at night...if you call it that! :) But all I have to do is look at these two little girls and all else is perfect in my little world!
Emerson has the longest eyelashes you have ever seen and a head full of thick, sweet curls <3

Avery started Ballet class last week and LOVES it! Everyday she asks me if it's ballet day...I'm so glad she's loving it as much as she is... you never know with these little ones!

It's Been a Long Time...

My girls are growing so fast... I swear, changes happen right before my eyes every single day! Here's Em, she's 7 months old and sooooo happy! I'm so happy she's happy! She even has 2 teeth! You can barely see them in this shot:



And Avery is busy as ever! She just got back from spending some time with her Grammy and Papa. Now she's home getting "back on schedule" and catching up on sleep! Boring Mommy... but I tell you what, this is a girl who needs her routine and sleep!



Lots going on around here these days! I know it doesn't seem like it, but I'm still taking pictures and loving it! Preschool is coming right along...website is almost complete! I can't wait to share the web address any day now!! Lastly, here's a picture of the whole crazy crew:

Aren't the gorgeous?? :)

Catchin' Up!

OK... so here goes! :) I've been away too long post everything that's gone on in our lives the last month... but here it is in a nutshell... a very small nutshell!
Christmas was wonderful at our house! Santa brought Avery a Thomas the Tank Engine Railway and a play kitchen!

Santa brought new clothes, books and rattles for Emerson. Mommy got an awesome gift from daddy that she totally wasn't expecting... a Nintendo DS! All I can say is I'M LOVING IT! (And no, that's not one of the reasons I've been neglecting the blog.) :)

And here's the newest member of our family...

No, the girls did not get a puppy for Christmas! My husband would have a heart-attack before that happened... so would our cats! But I guess they kind of did get a puppy - according to my brother. He got a mini-doxen and named him Jordie, after Michael Jordan. He is soooooo precious as you can see and such a good boy! My brother got him "so the girls could have him" he said, but he lives with Uncle Brian! :):)

Miss Emerson Paige turned 5 months on January 13th:

Just last week she started some solids... rice cereal and bananas! She is loving it and I'm so happy for her. For the last few months she's been on this really yucky formula that she has gotten used to but it's disgusting. Yeah, I tasted it.... I really feel for her, it's nasty. But it's been the only thing to help her poor tummy and each day she's become such a happier girl. So this was exciting. Seeing her love her "nanas" filled my heart with JOY! We call her the "EMINATOR" as in the Terminator!!! She is hilarious, she ROARS at us and is such a ham! She is crazy about Avery! Just today she played on the floor for 15 minutes on her tummy while Avery "cooked" food in her kitchen for Em:




Emerson is usually only happy being in mommy or daddy's arms! She does not like to be in the swing, exersaucer, Jumperoo, on the floor... NOTHING! So I was so proud of her laying here playing with Avery for that long! She is a sweetheart. Such a snuggler and lover! Em's sleeping very well at night. She goes to bed by 6pm and sleeps till 10-11pm then eats and falls back to sleep till about 6am. Mommy's getting a lot more rest these days!


One of Avery's favorite thigs to do is play the Wii with Daddy! She loves to watch us bowl and here she is shreddin' it up with daddy on his favorite game: Guitar Hero!!
She loves posing for the camera lately too!

There it is! Promise I won't stay gone for that long again! :):)

What a BAD, BAD girl!

Where the heck have I been? I can't really blame my crazy life on the holidays anymore... darn! :) But believe it or not, I have been busy! My girls have sure kept me on my toes these days! Stay tuned... working on some posts!

I'm so behind...

I have so many pictures to post these days and can't seem to find the time to do so! Will somebody please tell me that my life will become more organized soon?? :) In the meantime, here's a few:

A sweet moment...

Happy Emerson... she is all smiles these days (just haven't caught one yet)!! I'm so crazy about her!

My big girl! I cannont believe she was hammin' it up for the camera the other day!

Emerson will be two months old tomorrow! Hopefully I'll do a little session with her tomorrow afternoon and get those posted! Enjoy these for now.... :)

We're still here.....


.....just busy moving!! Although it's stressfull and busy and crazy and exciting all at once, we really are getting somewhere with it. We'll be out of our house next week and I can't wait!! While Avery and I were getting ready this morning, she thought she'd put some make-up on too. I've been dreaming of getting shots of her "doing her make-up" for so long... although it's not in front of a big mirror and posed how I'd like with lipstick all over everything, it's a start!! Enjoy!!

Busy Packing!

We are packing up our house, getting ready to move back to Mukilteo!! I am so excited about this move! As soon as I get off this computer I'm going to pack up my kitchen... procrastinating slightly, but still happy about it! If I don't get around to posting in the upcoming days, here's one to hold ya over for a while!! (God, she's cute! And you should hear some of the things that come out of her mouth lately: "Come on, Mom. Let's go!" Last night Mark's tongue had a big slip and he said, "Holy Crap....etc. etc. So what came out of Avery's mouth about six times in a row? "Holy cap, daddy. Holy cap, daddy!") Enjoy!!!

It's been a while...

...since I've posted! Talk about busy!! Since Christmas it's been non-stop around here, but I'm back and my camera is out again! Christmas was wonderful at our house. Unfortunately I don't have many pictures. Avery had so much fun on Christmas morning and I was so busy enjoying every second with my family that I didn't take a lot of pics.


In other exciting news... Avery is going to be a big sister! We found out soon after Thanksgiving and couldn't be happier! I'm officially 9 weeks pregnant today. We had our first peek at the baby and of course we're even more excited! I'm finally starting to feel a little better. Not as tired and nauseous which is a welcome relief!


Stay tuned for more pictures!!

Sledding...

...was a no-go this weekend at Alta Lake. Avery and I got back last night. We gave sledding a try for the first time and she did not like it. She really didn't like seeing mommy sled by herself either. Maybe next year. Sorry no pictures to post from the weekend. I didn't pack my camera. Seems like I get Avery packed perfectly for out of town trips, yet I always forget my own things!! Oh well, I must be a mom! Ha ha ha! Anyways... I'm hoping to catch some great holiday shots coming up in the next week. Plus, I've got some exciting news coming as well, so stay tuned......!

Another Beautiful Family

I've been so lucky lately to be holding my first sessions!! I've photographed some beautiful families with in the last month and I'm just loving it! Lifestyle photography has definitely become my newfound passion! Here's a couple from the other day:

Anyways... super-cute family!

I'll be heading out of town tonight. I'm taking Avery over to my parent's house east of the mountains to play in the snow for the weekend. And I'll definitely have my camera!! (Avery doesn't know it yet, but she's going to give sledding a try for the first time!)

10 Days...

Avery laying on the bottom step while my mom rubbed her back the other night

...of Avery being sick. My last post I had said I thought she was getting better. NOPE! Now she's getting better. We finally found out she has a viral infection in her mouth. Long story short: by last Friday she was dehydrated so we went back to the Dr., he prescribed Tylenol with Codeine, we got a little relief, added Motrin in between (Dr.'s orders) and slowly but surely she's eating and drinking more each day. But what a rough 10 days! She's finally back to sleeping through the night and taking normal naps and that sure helps! Today was a pretty good day. Avery played while she was awake and ate yogurt, cheese and chocolate pudding!! Definitely making progress!!!
In other exciting news... I've got another photo session lined up for Monday and another the following weekend for my very wonderful friend! I'm very excited and looking forward to getting out of the house too now that Avery is feeling a lot better! Stay tuned... Normal posting will resume as Avery's health improves! And thank you to our friends and family who prayed for Avery during this awful time! Someone must have been listening... :):)

I'm Still Here...

...Just busy lately. My little bug's been sick but I think she's starting to feel better today, thankfully. It just breaks my heart to see my usually happy girl feel so uncomfortable and sick. I'll have some pictures coming soon... Gotta run for now! :)

I can't help it...

......I have to post a few more "peeks" of the session I did in Florida! Here they are:


This mommy and daughter are just two peas in a pod!

And is this little girl beautiful or what?

I've just finished processing their session and I've ordered their proof book as well! I'm so excited for them to see their pictures... nearly 4o of them! WOW! Thanks so much girls, and I'll have your book to you soon!

Be Back Soon!

Just a quick post to let everyone know I'll be posting again soon! I just haven't had a chance lately and I haven't been taking any pictures either. Tomorrow, if the weather holds out, we're heading out to a really neat park/farm so I should have some sweet pictures to post after our outing... be back soon!
