My Nautical Baby Shower
I'm seriously the luckiest girl in the whole wide world to get to have these amazing baby showers thrown for my little guy! This post is about my nautical themed shower thrown by my best friend, Amie! Her attention to detail was impeccable, there were things I missed in person that I only just now noticed looking at the photos! Of course, she didn't do it alone
Two Month Old Isaiah
In a blink of an eye (definitely less than 40 winks), my little 6 pounder of a newborn has magically transformed into a (over 9 pound) happy and smiling 2 month old who is chunking up all over the place!! His little scrawny arms and legs are gaining "biceps" and rolls. They may be tiny, but they are on their way to be mighty! His second month of life was just as interesting as the first
Baby Isaiah’s Newborn & Nursery Photos, and Birth Announcement
I feel like I've been waiting my whole life to have these photos done
My Storybook Baby Shower
You know that feeling when you just want to burst because you feel so very loved. I hope you do. It's such a wonderful, awe inspiring and humbling feeling. I had 4 very dear friends of mine gather together to throw me a baby shower back in May. And this was 1 of what ended up being 4 showers! Yeah, seriously, that loved feeling is just amazing. Because of my extreme love of books, the girls planned a storybook themed shower. So perfect. And they got so creative with it. From book page banners to the book character themed matching game
One Month Old Isaiah
Before I catch up on my (amazing!!!) baby showers, and his stunningly adorable newborn photos
Maternity Photos with Janet Rayne Photography
I had the longest list ever of things I looked forward to doing while pregnant. Many of those came and went as I mentioned in my last blog post, but taking maternity photos was top priority. So thankfully I LOVE THEM! And a big thank you to Janet, of Janet Rayne Photography, for her patience on my unrelenting demand for the golden hour light—as you can see, she definitely delivered on that.
Pregnancy Update
So apparently getting pregnant meant abandoning my blog! I always thought I'd be one of those adorably put together pregnant mamas that took gorgeous weekly photo updates that incorporate the baby size fruit of the week with glowing light and compositions. Or that I wouldn't bail on all other aspects of life except the things that *have to* be done everyday. But I am so not. I didn't start taking weekly photos until halfway through the pregnancy. I am over 2 months (or is it 3 now?) behind in my pregnancy devotional and even further behind in my pregnancy journal. I get my shop orders done and anything outside of that for friends and family takes me forever and a day and absolutely nothing personal has been worked on like my daily lettering or THIS BLOG. Oh and the house basically became a disaster of clutter (I literally just finished unpacking from our big trip last fall this past month!). Oh and the bills that I have missed paying (multiple times) and the other random mail that I keep finding from December and January
Two Oh Fifteen
I totally missed the months where the reminiscing posts are made, but I still want to take the time to look back on the crazy year of 2015. It was a year I will never ever forget

Hi there! As I recover from that crazy road trip of ours, I thought I'd share some photos from our family reunion this past summer
