{one} J + V's first birthday

I cannot believe that today my little monster turned one. I honestly don't know whether I should laugh, cry or do both. The past year has been lined with many changes and surprises. I never know how much one little person could change my whole life and I am blessed to be able to call her mine.

We had an amazing party tonight to celebrate the last year, and to everyone that came - thank you for celebrating this next step in Jamie's life, we are honored that you could come and share this time with us!

I cannot believe how daintily Jamie ate her cupcake, silly goose. Usually she devours them up, just like her boyfriend, Vik, who came over to share in the party goodness. Jamie did get dirty after a while, but it took some urging.

{personal} what fills my day

All right, my blogging has been pretty non existent for the past month. I have so much that I want to share with all of you, and yet, it seems like I never have enough time in the day to get everything done. I know that I am not the most organized of people, ask Rob, he'll tell you. But there is a method to my madness. Try sitting in on one of my dreams sometime, I have the craziest dreams. I've heard that people don't dream in color, not true, I have the most vivid dreams, plus I can read. What does that mean, I suppose? It's on of my weirdities. Oh yeah, totally made up word at that. Wink, wink.

We have so many plans and ideas that we have for this coming year. Our days have been filled, not only with work, photography and baby, but with all the outrageous thoughts racing through our heads. We have our Senior Reps for Baraboo already, headshots are done and we are already talking to more students about having their senior pictures taken this summer. I can not believe that my baby sister will be a senior this year. Have I gotten that old?! I suppose it's true, time flies.

As I look back at the last seven months, I am amazed. Jamie is sitting up by herself, eating solid foods on a regular basis (so far the favourite is bananas), she tries to "swim" while on her tummy on a blanket and pretty soon she will be crawling all around. We had an awesome time at the Once Upon a Time bridal fair in the Dells and booked two amazing couples that day. We started offering metal prints, yes they are metal and you just have to clean them with windex, how sweet is that?! I bought a new car, with Jamie in mind, I'll miss my Jeep, but hey, priorities change.

I wanted to leave you all with some shots of what, or shall I say who, has been keeping me so busy the last couple of months. She does sleep through the night, thank goodness, but by the time she's in bed, we are, too. She just wears us out! We are so blessed to have such a beautiful and healthy baby girl, I can only wish that everyone else is just as lucky in their own endeavors.






She has the best expressions, and she talks now. Nothing understandable of course, but she talks gibberish and we talk back to her. She loves it. She gives kisses now, and as soon as she learns to close her mouth during these kisses, I believe that we will get less slobbery, but we wouldn't trade a kiss for the world.

I never imagined my life would turn out this way. I am amazed. As if this wasn't enough, we have the best start to our wedding season this year. Two of my old high school friends are getting married in the next month and a half. Our shortest wedding will be later this month, and our longest will be next month. I promise to have an amazingly awesome time at both and hopefully, cross my fingers, get some shots up in a timely manner. ;) I am so psyched! I can't really contain my excitement, and Rob was so jealous of Boris, that he had to order his own just in time for our first weddings. Woohoo.

I hope you all are having a blast. As always, I love to hear from you, so feel free to leave me a comment or two. And yes, I know, she has little bat wing ears, they are gorgeous.

{happy halloween} jamie's first!

Happy Halloween!!! This is my favourite time of year. I love the smell of fall, yes there really is one, the colors as they change, the way that families come together, I love it all. Halloween is my favourite holiday. It's the one day of the year when you can be anything you want. Usually, I would dress up with Rob, but this year I just didn't have the time. We did, however, dress up our little sugar plum, she's a pink Jaguar, isn't she the cutest baby in the world?

Okay, maybe I'm biased on that account, but I love seeing all the costumes, the best ones are always homemade and once Jamie gets bigger, I want to be able to help her create the most outrageous and unique costumes. I'm hoping that she loves Halloween as much as her daddy and I do.

I hope everyone has a safe Halloween, don't eat all your candy in one sitting, and know that I still have so much more to talk about, like the luscious metal prints that showed up on Thursday.

Enjoy my little Jaguar:

{new arrival} jamie kathryn

So, most of you may know that today is my due date. If not, today was supposed to be "D day". Plans change. Little miss Jamie made her debut last Thursday! I can't believe it's taken me this long to get some shots of her up on the blog! Although, no one tells you how tired you will be after giving birth. Jamie is healthy and home, she weighed 6 pounds 14 ounces and was 19 1/2 inches long, and she is just gorgeous!

Ok, I may be a bit biased on that last statement, but everyone that has seen her tells us how beautiful she is. She has little notches on her ears, I have one like that, but her grandpapa is taking all the credit for that one (although if you ask him, he will claim she looks just like him, pay him no mind). Rob calls her feet "Frodo feet" because they are so big, she has long toes, too. I love them, I could just nibble on them.

So far, Jamie sleeps a lot, she snores, too! Rob recorded her snoring on his phone, it's so funny! Our day is centered around her now, thank goodness that Rob has these first two weeks off with me, I don't know what I would do without him, although after that my sister will be here.

My little girl is going to be so spoiled!
