Independant Baby

The Nine Month mark has really made me realize that my baby is becoming a very independent little person. She sneaks into the diaper bag and steals her favorite crackers, demands to hold the bottle herself, and likes to help me diaper her. What's toddler-hood going to be like? What is teenage-hood going to be like? I'm enjoying this every step of the way! This stage is my favorite stage....I've been saying that everyday since she was born.
I love being a parent.

Spring Time in Sidney!

Have I mentioned I am huge fan of Spring? My daughter and I walk as often as we can now that the weather is nice. I had her out in the Baby Bjorn and we were taking photos of the spring blossoms. Guess who grabbed my camera and took her first self portrait? My seven and a half month old daughter, Kennedy! Wow, guess who's going to have to be baby proof her camera bag?

Happy Valentine's Day to all my clients, friends, and family!

Thanks for all of your support of my photography! Hope your Valentine's Day and beyond is sweet!

Christmas Angels

My daughter, Kennedy, and her cousin, Leilani are enjoying their first Christmas! It was so sweet getting them all dolled up in their Christmas dresses . They are three months old and are now just holding their heads up on their own. They adore the bright lights of the Christmas tree.

It was not to long ago that I remember when Christmas was all about what was under the tree now it's the Little One's that crowd around it!

Here is a photo of Kennedy and her grandparents. This was a special Christmas for them too!

Merry Christmas to you and your families- from my family to yours!

Building a Mystery

My clients have been asking me what we're having. My husband and I wanted to save it as a surprise. We nicknamed our baby the "Little Mystery".

Well, The Little Mystery has been solved....Kennedy Brown has arrived!

Kennedy was 8 pounds 12 oz. 22 inches long and was born 1231h.

She is that beautiful brown eyed girl I have been dreaming about! So lovely!

We're recovering well and sleeping when we can. And sometimes we even let Grandma hold her! :)

Thanks for your notes and well wishes!

My Little Mystery

I'm doing a cardinal sin. Our first family photo and I decided to look at the baby instead of looking at the photographer. I'm totally fired from this modelling gig.

My little one, Kennedy arrived on the first day of Autumn. I have been taking a breath to enjoy every minute of being a mum. They say you have no idea what love is until you look into the eyes of your child. I get that now. I have been seeing that expression on all my new parents for years...now I finally understand.

Thank you for sharing your most important moments with me- it's nice to shine a light on my own with you. Thank you for your support on this journey!
