We are at the point where he does not enjoy this pic with Mom any more ;). A little explaining and he was like “ok fine”. This sweet kid is taking alot of his Daddy’s wonderful characteristics. He’s loving, thoughtful, caring, creative and likes to be in the woods. Hunting, nerf wars, shooting basketball, riding his bike, swimming, building forts in the house, and making something crazy good out of a bunch of legos or blocks continues to be what he enjoys. My photographer self loves these pics but also cringes at the white balance/temperature being different from year to year drives me nuts. I decided to let it go … its one of those things, little things that don’t matter. Im so thankful for our sweet Jase. He is a delight. Sure he can be a brat sometimes or whine like any kid but overall he’s pretty dang great. School work is not his choice of liking but he can tell you anything you want to know about sharks and such. Keep being you Jase. Love your heart. Happy Birthday our boy.
He is 6... crazy how fast it all goes.
We started taking these images when I was 39 weeks pregnant on to Jase being 1 week old then yearly after that. Im late posting this year's image but it was taken a day past his 6 year birthday this year. Its going to get interesting how this plays out the bigger he gets! I used blogstomp to create this collage so it wouldn't let me put it in the exact order so just be creative with your eyes! =)
Precious Life. Beautiful Day.
How can I describe this experience in one blog post. Brittany and I had been texting back and forth about how she was feeling. Anytime I know Ive got a birth I get anxious closer to time wanting to be sure Im there when need be. The night of baby Stella's birth I had literally just laid down and got a text from Brittany that they were headed to the birthing center. I jumped back up and headed out within 8 mins. The drive to the birthing center seemed short I guess because I was so excited to get there. As I arrived the staff was super welcoming and led me to the birthing room. This was my first water birth to document and it was a little new. Its completely different atmosphere than a hospital in a wonderful way. Brittany was in the birthing tub with Matt sitting next to her holding her hand for support. The room was relaxed and quiet so Mom could focus on laboring and not lots of people, noises and machines. Once the harder contractions came and baby Stella made her debut it was so beautiful. The entire thing. The entire birth. The entire experience. Watch Baby Stella's birth story here:

A Fifth of Beam: Maternity Family Pictures
Gosh we had the best time with this adorable family. They are expecting their 3rd little sweet one very soon. He or She (surprise) will make the Fifth of Beam for the Beam Family. We were able to enjoy the beautiful sunshine on their land near the dairy farm that they own and run. Beam Dairy Farm is a family business ran with lots of hard work and love. The ultimate southern family even with Suzie and John Boy being these kiddos name's. I can't wait to hear what this new one will be named. Looking forward to meeting the fifth of Beam =). Much Love.
