Garrison is 2 months!!

I can't believe our baby is two months old! Well, first of all, I can't believe we actually have a baby. Infertility is a process that is long, emotional, and sometimes very lonely. But everything we went through, every shot I took, every doctor's visit we had, every tear we cried was completely worth is. Garrison is such a blessing; one that we are thankful for every day.

Initially my goal was to take a picture of Garrison every day. That didn't last long. So now my goal is to take a picture of him each month to show how much he's grown. I don't think I posted his picture in his one month onesie, so here are both months.

Each day we learn something new about Garrison. These are the things I love about him right now:
- when he stretches, his arms fly up over his head because he has no control over them. It's precious.
- his ears are different. His left ear is shaped just like mine. His right ear is shaped just like Will's (it even sticks out more!)
- When he's crying, he pokes out his bottom lip. It's cute and sad at the same time.
- When he is full, his little tummy pokes out.
- When he's falling asleep, he makes these sweet noises and squeeks. Then he breathes a deep sigh when he's fully relaxed. It's like he finally gives up and falls asleep.

We are so thankful for our little booger.


The Jones family

I love this family. They are like family to Will and me. Mackenzie just turned three. I can't believe it!! She is so precious. Josh and Jen are the best parents. I love the relationship both of them have with Mackenzie - together and separately. They both really pay attention to her, they know what makes her happy and what upsets her, they discipline her in a way that makes her respect them but doesn't break her will, and they just simply love her unconditionally. Thanks for being our friends!





For Mac's birthday, her Mimi and Paw took her to Disney World. She absolutely LOVES Minnie Mouse. There is no telling how many stuffed Minnies she has! Jenifer bought her the cutest outfits for each day they were there. This white smocked dress is what she wore the morning of her actual birthday - they had breakfast with the Disney characters. I'm pretty sure she was the cutest kid at Disney!











And this is what happens when you take the big sucker away. She is still talking about that sucker. Friday at lunch, she said it wasn't very nice that her mom took the sucker away! That little girl doesn't forget anything!

Emily and JD

It's been so beautiful outside, so I was super excited to take Emily and JD's engagement pictures over Easter weekend. We took some at White Hall, an antebellum home in Columbus where their reception will be. We also walked downtown Columbus. Emily's eyes are gorgeous, don't you agree?







Anna Crawford

So I'm not officially off maternity leave (what does that even mean when you own your own business and are going to keep your baby at home???) but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to take Anna Crawford's 6 month pictures. Her big brother Charlie fell asleep during the photo shoot, so we will take some of the two of them together this summer. Isn't she precious? She is definitely a drama queen (which is precious for me - not so much for her mom!).
