Sweet 2 week old baby Daniel is such a miracle. He was easy on me - cuddly, sleepy and adorable in all his newborn perfection. I got to see how excited his mama and papa were during their maternity session and now meeting Daniel was amazing. They fit together as such a perfect complete family and they’re absolutely naturals as parents. I could have held him all day long - check out this cutie pie!

I love how all the details from this nursery come together to make the cutest room ever! Just wanted to share some more of this awesome room. Can you imaging growing up in this room!? Such fun everywhere you look!

We braved a lightning strike, tornado warnings, and massive amounts of rain to get this family together for an end of summer sunset run through The Sunflower Gardens. A beautiful family + gorgeous flower fields + post storm clouds = amaaaaaaazingness. These cousins were so cute together - hugging eachother, discovering giant birds nests (seriously, it was for a dinosaur sized bird), and being helpful pointing out things such as bees and puppies. These kids LOVED the flowers and it was so fun watching them discover everything there. And I dont need to mention how beautiful this family is - just see for yourselves.

I realized that I didnt have a single family photo of us all together since in the hospital…which trust me, no one wants to see. In said photo, my face was a lovely shade of gray, my whole body swollen with IV fluids, and Dave had a shell shocked expression. In fact now that I think of it, maybe I should just throw that photo away.

This brings us to an impromptu quick family photosession we scrounged up. I was in the middle of grilling outside when I noticed a storm rolling in and some yummy fading light, so I grabbed my camera and set up the settings for my mom to take - and finally I’m in FRONT of the camera in some!!! I cant tell you how excited I am about that - I never get in any photos so I’m happy Heath has these of him and his mama, and I love the ones of us as a family. I hope he looks back at these someday and realizes how much we love him.

And yeah I totally burned the grilled chicken.

This weekend I met up with this gorgeous and sweet couple to photograph their maternity session and I had such a blast! Well that is if you put aside trying to find parking in Georgetown for 35 minutes…which I will, because luckily I found a semi-spot and didnt get towed. Our session ended up being the same time as a big run through the city which was actually very cool because this adorable couple are quite the runners themselves! They are also two of the kindest and loveliest people ever and their baby is so lucky to have such excited and awesome parents! The surprise is still to come on whether they’re having a boy or a girl, but my vote is boy (because I want Heath to have a little playmate!)

Cant wait to meet your little one - enjoy these last few weeks and I’ll pass along the advice so many moms before me said - GET YOUR SLEEP NOW!!!
