How cute is this momma?? Only a few more weeks till they welcome their first baby and Heather- U make pregnancy look so rockin’!!  I think we may have laughed THE.whole.time– but whats wrong with that? We celebrated with a baby shower first in the morning ( Amber – you did such a great job on everything- loved it!!) then headed out and about that afternoon.   I had so much fun- wasn’t too terribly cold ( unlike the shoot I had this morning- YIKES it was FREEzing!!) and my subjects were so fun to be around!! CANT wait to meet  the newest member to your family Heather and Jason, thankyou both soo much for thinking of me to capture these moments in time:D

catching up on blog posts– have LOTS of pics to put on here- snuck a few on my FB page but heres a few more of my favs from a newborn shoot I did right before Christmas- Miss K– could you be ANY sweeter? I remember your sis being quite the same…. so easy going, sleepy, then wide away and such direct looks at my camera- LOVED it!! thank you Bopp family for letting me capture these sweet moments with your baby girl!!

Most girls look forward to what their dress will be like on their wedding day or what their husband will be like….. ummmmm not me;) When I was little I of course dreamed of being married and having lots of children ( well THAT certainly is a dream come true now isn’t it?!  :P) I thought instead, of what it would be like to be 30 and what Id be doing at that age.  I always felt like 30 wasn’t old ( though at the time….. a LIFEtime away!!) but a true  ”grown up” and that one would have life all figured out.  HA ha haa…. I am turning the big 3 0 tomorrow and I.AM.SO.STOKED ( umm can I still say that word?? think not, but I am this once!) NOT that I have life all figured out ( my head spins daily in awe of Gods timing and direction for my life) I just feel like my whole life Ive been waiting for this- not that much is going to change tomorrow.  We still will have school and my sweet kiddos will probably help Daddy fix my fav meal, spoil me as they always do….. but I am so proud to be this age- 1. glad I MADE it to this age since I was the most rebellious, stubborn teenager EVER on this earth  and 2. because my life is soo blessed- to have the people I love most surrounding me in support and love I NEVER could have imagined at 30 I would have THE best girlfriends alive, THE most adoring husband, an entire family to love me as me ( though still a lil stubborn at times…just maybe…) and truly THE most awesome kids God could have given me ( tho kiddo inside- you, my sweet, are killin me with this sickness ).  Being 30 for some is hard and a new time in life for each of us, but for me I am so excited to wake up in the morning with little hands hugging me and lots of sweet kisses on my face, seeing how grand this thing called 30 truly is- all I ever dreamed it could be~ heres to being a “grown up” lol  ummmmm n o ttttttttt:P and on a last note being 30 and child number 6– at only 16  weeks( or 15..I loose track??!) my belly is a growin’ at super speed- goodbye regular pants, hello maternity…one shot of the belly- self portrait so not soo great but will do for a documentation to see JUST how big this belly gets!! xoxoxox
