Five on Friday

This is a fun Five on Friday for me:) I am on vacation in Lake Tahoe with my family and loving it out here! My mom has lived here since I graduated high school--such a great place to visit! Anyways, on with my Five!

One.

I don't know why but on Monday as I was packing our suitcase, I found it really really cute that Brody and I were sharing a suitcase. His little boy clothes melt my heart!

Two.

We met Travis for lunch before we left on Tuesday. We had Brody's four month check up(He is a champ!) and then we were off! He slept the whole way to Sacramento so this mom was happy!!

Three. 

I've been sleeping in the same room as Brody these past few days at my mom's. Makes me realize why we put him in his own room at 6 weeks! I hear every sigh and little noise. I guess it is true that vacations with babies require another vacation afterwards just to recuperate! 

Four.

My mom is all about organic, homemade, natural foods. She is a great cook! We've had awesome meals here. Does that cancel out all the cupcakes I've eaten?

Five.

We went on a nice hike this week. It was Brody's first time in the snow!! We took a few water breaks--I'm blaming my huffin' and puffin' on the altitude:) Oh, and that extra almost 20 pounds that I was carrying!

Have a great weekend and Happy Easter!! 

Chico, CA Newborn Photographer:: Kennedy Sneak Peek

Travis and I went to Sacramento to photograph little Kennedy this past weekend. We know her parents and their family from High School and it was so much fun to spend time with them! I should have taken photos of their gorgeous home to share with you all--it is stunning!! Anyways, I had to share another sneak peek of Kennedy because she is just adorable. Check out her amazing hair! 

Can't wait to share more of this precious girl and her family. We are so blessed to work with such amazing people!!

Five on Friday

I am especially loving this Friday because we are still in pajamas at noon and Travis has tomorrow off, which is a treat! 

One.

Once again, the Moms group that I attend on Mondays had me walking away encouraged and ready for action! It really spurs on great conversation between Travis and I--I could not be more excited about hearing these marriage and mothering lessons. (Hi Lindy!)

Two.

We walked to get froyo this week--it is just a few blocks from our house. Travis filled up the cup with his fave and I wasn't a fan. That's probably better that I didn't eat it anyways. That batch of cookies I made this week, well, lets just say Travis didn't eat that many and they are already gone.

Three.

Gearing up for a Newborn Session in Sacramento tomorrow. I'm so excited to photograph little Kennedy and make a day trip out of it! Maybe a stop by Ikea?:)

Four.

I actually got out of bed this morning before the other two in my house were up, which is quite a miracle. We had pancakes and bacon for breakfast. Brody and I then hung out on our bed while Travis got ready for work--it was a relaxing morning and I know Travis loved not having to make himself oatmeal:)

Five.

I put up some Easter decorations this week. The bunnies are from PierOne and a friend gave us the Keep Calm sign. I made the little banner that is stamped "He is Risen". I can't believe Easter is next weekend! 

I hope you all have a great weekend! Thanks for following:) 

Five on Friday

Here we are--it's Friday!!

One.

Can I just start off by saying how amazing the weather has been this week??? We've been outside more than the previous weeks and it's been awesome. 

Two.

Travis and I walked to a friends house for dinner on tuesday. It was delicious--thank you Reids! We also walked to the grocery store one evening. Brody slept both times:)

Three.

I planned a trip to Tahoe in less than two weeks. Brody and I will be picking up two of my sisters in Sac then heading to Tahoe for four days! All 5 of us daughters will be with my mom. Sister and mom time is just what I've been dreaming of!

Four.

Most of my tomatoes plants keeled over, I think from a lack of heat. But a few have done great with this week's weather and that's all we need!!

Five.

Got to sneak in to watch my baby sleep this morning. It's the most peaceful thing I've ever done. I can't express enough the joy he brings us!
