So…….. I actually have an announcement to make…. We are preggo!

This post has been a long time coming, and quite honestly, I meant to post it quite awhile ago, but I didn’t (Obviously). At first I was on a quest for the perfect pair of little pink shoes (yes, it is a girl) and I just couldn’t find them…. and then once I found them, I was caught up in other things and didn’t take the time to blog them!!!

Since I am doing a personal post… just thought I would share some of the latest happenings here, since I haven’t been blogging very much even though there is a ton that I can post!!! And still plan to…

So, yup, Number 1. We are with child…..  And she is due to come on September 5th. We found out we were pregnant the week before Christmas…. and it has been an interesting journey. Just going to be honest. I was completely petrified at first…. cried for a couple of days because I was scared out of my mind….  The first trimester, I felt like I was a waste of life because I didn’t feel well… and I was super tired…. but the 2nd trimester was great!! I felt amazing…. and I still do! I feel really blessed to have had such a great pregnancy thus far… and will be shooting until the end of July. I have a few engagement sessions the first week of August, and  then will resume shooting again in October.  Right now, I am growing quickly…. and getting pretty nervous about the delivery end. But, am trusting that I will survive!!!

So, with that said there are a lot of other things going on here that have taken me from the blogging world….

We have been in the process of redoing our branding…. and we are finally in the ending stages. It has been quite a process and started last December, but we are almost there… and I can’t wait for the big launch… This will include website, blog, all materials, logo, etc. I am excited to see it all come to fruition…. and expect it to happen before Baby’s arrival!

With that said…. we have also been redoing a lot of our house…. lots of painting… moving rooms…. My old office is now the nursery… and my office is now downstairs…. And our living area will match our new branding! So we have been doing a lot of painting, organizing, furniture shopping, throwing things out….

Katy has been editing since the beginning of the year…. and she is amazing. And she is also doing all of the albums… and she does an amazing job! Can’t wait to share more about her…. and you will surely see more of her in the future. She is available to make customized baby announcements, save the dates, etc. so if you are interested in information on that, please let me know!

On a different note…. we had to make a hard decision and put our oldest dog down. He wasn’t doing well at all…. and it was a very hard, sad decision to make….. so we were sad to lose a family member…. but are excited to gain our newest member this fall.  Here is one of my favorite photos of Chester from Christmas a couple years ago…

So….. that is just a small update on some of the happenings in our lives….  Because of our new baby, I will be taking a VERY LIMITED number of sessions this fall for the holiday…. So, if you would like to schedule a session, please contact me asap. I will not have many openings to offer.

I have another great wedding to post  tomorrow! So check back!!!

Blessings.
