We have been trying to schedule a Family photo shoot for some time now, and well, life happens, and things get pushed aside, priorities superseding. We have been talking about doing a Fall Photo shoot, and have tried to coordinate this between all our schedules. The weather got very wet and very cold fast...Now, I love Fall, rainy, gloomy days and all, but it doesn't make for a very open ideal light base for good photography and/or a very conducive environment for a 6 month old. It just so happened that the temperature rose significantly, and gave everyone that hint of perfect Fall weather that sort of brushed by us this year, and it just so happened that one of those days fell on our 2nd Wedding Anniversary. I asked Rach if she would agree to take our photos that day, and convinced my husband to comply, and here is a sneak peek at the results:

As, you can see, it turned out to be a perfect day, and we walked away with the perfect Fall photos, and much adoration and admiration for our very talented, very gifted sister.
Thanks, Rach. It was a beautiful, perfect day for us, and we are so very humbled and blessed.

Auntie Again!!
I just wanted to say, blissfully, that I can finally post this wonderful, wonderful news that has been bursting inside of me:
"Yes, I am going to be an Auntie once more!!" YEAH!!
It's more like 2 months than 5 weeks since I first mentioned that good news was coming, but I couldn't post about it till now. Well, that day is finally here, and I am sooooooooooooooo excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My brother and sister-in-law, asked that we wait before exclaiming it from every rooftop that they were expecting their second child. We were all respectful of their wishes, though were were all screaming inside to tell everyone we knew. They told the pumpkin (the other pumpkin, my niece Savannah) and she is more than thrilled, you could imagine. She has been bombarding the two of them with questions, and has already taken to the Big Sister Role, taking care of him/her, and informing Daddy that he has to take care of Mommy bc she has to take care of the Baby! How I would love to be there every day to witness this! Tammy is 16 weeks, and her nausea has finally subsided. They are all planning a trip to Disney World in November. I am elated for my brother, sister-in-law, and for my dear, sweet niece. She has wanted this so terribly, and now, her one wish has come to life, and I can't wait to share every step of it with her. I know that I adored her attention to me as I carried Nikolina. I'm sure Tammie is loving it too (and/or will be driving her crazy by the time 9 months rolls around!!) Seriously, though, I's so crazy happy for you all, and I love you dearly. I'm so glad that you can experience this miracle again, and that we will have a new little person to love. It's the best. And, I know you are bursting with happiness and joy! Savannah, you will be the best Bis Sis!
Take care little one, see you soon....

I just wanted to say thank you to my sister-in-law, Rachael, for taking our photos today, on our anniversary.

We know the images will be beautiful, and can't wait!! You are so talented, and amazing and surprising us every day with your talent.
Thank you too, for lending me your lens. I am loving it!
Loving playing, loving exploring, testing...
You're the best!!

Best Husband Ever!
So, that's why you were late getting home...
Ok, I forgive you, just this once...
These pink boxes are kind of a significant mark as gifts for me, and I always feel special whenever I have the opportunity/occasion to receive one, or in this case TWO! Yeah!!
Love the Pink Boxes, even more than the
little blue ones!

Happy Anniversary!!
My darling, my love, my best friend...Happy 2nd Anniversary!!
I love you today as the day I knew I could love no other as I loved you, as much as the day you asked for my hand in Marriage, as much as the following "Yes" that insued, as much as the day our two lives became one, and as much as the two blissful weeks we spent as Newlyweds!
I love you as much as the day I told you, you would be a Daddy for the first time, I love you as much as the day our first Daughter took her first breath in this world, as much as the moment I saw her in your arms, and she took your breath away, I love you as much as the first time I watched you rock her gently into sweet slumber. I love you today, more than ever, and each day that I live, I love you more, and each day, I fall in love with you all over again.
For you and our dance in Ashley Kohn's Garage:
"Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard oneI know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' youCan hurt you somehow
Don' you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's ableYou know the queen of heats is always your best bet
Now it seems to me, some fine thingsHave been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get
Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no youger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone
Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're loosin' all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, before it's too late..."
It's late, but a peek back in time before I go...

Sniffles...
The little Pumpkin has a cold, and a bit of a bad coughus. It seems to have started after her Flu shot, and we thought, initially, that it was just a reaction from her Flu Shot, but now, we're not so sure. She started sneezing shortly after her shot Friday, and started to get a bit of a runny nose. Sunday night, she wouldn't sleep, and nothing seemed to calm her, not even nursing her. We thought maybe, she was teething. Then on Wednesday, the poor little pumpkin started coughing, and she hasn't stopped since. It makes me wish that I was home with the poor little pumpkin, to comfort her. But mainly, I feel responsible for placing her in Day Care, where she is exposed to germs, and whatever is going around. I am very good about washing my hands often and sanitizing after being at work, so I don't think that I carried it home to her, but I can't be sure. Which makes me feel even more guilty. When we went for Nik's 6 Month check-up, the doctor's office was packed with children, who I'm sure were all sick, but none of them got near Nik. I would hope that the doctor's offices are careful about good hand washing. But either way, the poor little pumpkin has a case of the sniffles and the coughs, and she is not sleeping very well, as she keeps waking up coughing. She has managed to steer clear of a fever, thank goodness. My heart aches for her, I just pray she gets better soon.
Also, I started a second blog. As a 'New Mommy,' I had all this info that I want to keep close by on hand, and wanted to share, but wanted to keep our family blog clean of a hodge podge of articles and info. I thought the info deserved it's own place, and rightfully so. It's just starting, as I will be adding info as I get the time. The blog domain and title are different, as are these. I initially wanted the site to be "Mama Mia," but when I put the domain in, it was already taken, so I tried to think of another one, but there are so many great ones out there that already taken, like The Nest, and The Itch, and so on, so I thought of Pickles and Ice Cream, the adage for preggers, but that was taken as well, so I compromised. In the future, as Josh and I add on to our little family, I would like the domain to be The Garrett Pumpkin Patch, so the blog's purpose is two-fold. You should check it out whenever there isn't a current post on "You, Me, & Baby...," as there may be one there. http://garrettpumpkinpatch.blogspot.com/
The http://mykitschy.blogspot.com/ is for something I am working on in my head, but un-decided at this time, where I am going to go with it, so I will let you know as it develops if there's anything there!
